How do I combine colour bars and a moving average?

I am using the "Colour based on alert" study.

When price is below the moving average then apply formula 1.
When price is above the moving average then apply formula 2.

Example:
My "Colour bar based on alert condition" formula 1 = "AND(C<O,H-L>TICKSIZE*6)" I only want this to fire when price is below a moving average.
My "Colour bar based on alert condition" formula 2 = "AND(C>O,H-L>TICKSIZE*6)" I only want this to fire when price is above a moving average.

Thanks.

What is the question specifically?

If you already know the formulas, then it sounds like you are all set. You are going to need 2 instances of the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition study for this. One for each formula.

My question is: How do I specify that the alert only triggers when price is above a moving average?
