Paintbar of SMA crossover

[cajunman]

Does anybody have the script for a PaintBar of a SMA crossover whereby when a 6 bar SMA crosses above a 12 bar SMA on the close the price bars are painted green for example and when a 6 bar crosses below the 12 bar the price bars are painted red. I am terrible at writing my own indicators. Thank you very much ahead of time.

Hello cajunman,

I took a look around to see if there is an existing script that does this, but I was not able to find an existing script.

This script would not require much code to create.

For example:

if (CrossAbove(SMA(6), SMA(12), 1))
{
BarColor = Color.Green;
}

This would change the bar color when the SMA with a period of 6 crosses above the SMA with a period of 12.

While I will not be able to create this script at your request, this thread will remain open for any community members that would like to create this script as a convenience to you.
