try use custom indicator with histogram drawing type. You fill two lines with Your MA values and histogram will be drawn between these lines

Slawa - i cant find words to say thank you but its still dificult for me and other many traders i hv talked. well, lets put in this way. i am interesting 21 and 55 exponential moving averages. most of participants interested about that. So last but not least wuld be very much obliged if yu can make a custom indicator about that and put it in your site so all of us can download. repeat 21 and 55 exponential moving averages. thanks again your nice support

create new custom indicator, pass over all wizard, delete all the generated text, copy source text from this page and paste this one instead of deleted text.
MA_Period1 set to 21 MA_Period2 set to 55 MODE_SMA parameters in the iMA calls replace to MODE_EMA press compile button and use your own custom indicator |
