Hi can you help me mod the standard ema very slightly?
I would like it so that if price goes above the ema it colours it green and if the price is below the ema it changes it to red..
I only want it colouring the part the candles are above or below not the whole ema so it would look like this:
Its just the standard Ninja EMA i would like to mod but i have pasted the code below anyway.. thanks for the help..
