Risk. Trading can lose money. A marker is a chart observation, not a prediction, and this script is checked on test data, not proven in live trading. Try it on the Practice balance first.
- Trend
- Context indicator
- On price
- Beginner
Plots a fast and slow exponential moving average over price and shades the space between them with a neutral ribbon, making the relationship between two smoothing speeds easier to see.
How to read it
When the fast line is above the slow line the short-term average is rising faster than the longer one; the ribbon width shows how far apart they are.
Indicators used
- EMA 9
- EMA 21
Same view with built-in indicators: Two Moving Average indicators (exponential, 9 and 21).
Default settings
| Fast EMA | 9 |
|---|---|
| Slow EMA | 21 |
Every value is an input in the script settings. Platform advice is off by default.
Key points
- Two exponential moving averages, a fast 9 and a slow 21.
- The shaded ribbon shows the gap between them.
- A widening ribbon means the two speeds are separating.
- In a sideways market the lines cross often, so read it together with price structure.
Limitations. Moving averages lag and can cross repeatedly in a range. Test on the Practice balance before risking real funds.
