Overview

Sharp Modified Moving Average calculates the line as three times a weighted moving average minus twice a simple moving average of the selected source. The line turns green when it rises and pink when it falls. Optional settings color price bars and the chart background by that slope. Alerts fire when the line switches to bullish, bearish, or any new color. Length and source are user inputs.
