EMA Crossover Candle Color - 9/21
A simple visual trend highlighter for intraday/day trading. This overlay indicator plots a fast 9-period EMA (orange) and a slower 21-period EMA (blue). Candles turn green on the exact bar where the 9 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA (bullish momentum shift), and red when the 9 EMA crosses below the 21 EMA (bearish shift). Otherwise, candles remain default. Great for spotting quick trend changes, momentum entries, or filtering chop on 5-min charts (or any timeframe). Pairs well with VWAP, volume, or price action for confluence.
