Color Bar Based On Alert Condition Question

Looking to Color Bar when the 3 Moving Averages in the Moving Averages Study cross in the same bar.

I am getting an alert when I use this formula: =CROSSOVER(ID1.SG1,ID1.SG2,ID1.SG3)

Any help would be appreciated.

There is not enough detail here for us to help with. What are the exact cross rules?

Also using more than two Study Subgraph references for the CROSSOVER function will not work.

OK. We would like to color the bar if at anytime inside of a 1 candle, all 3 MAs have the same value.

This would seem to be a very unlikely scenario but the formula would be:
= AND (ID1.SG1==ID1.SG2,ID1.SG2 ==ID1.SG3)

It would be doubtful that this would work properly. You would need to add some kind of range check to the formula to see when the values are close.

OK. Something so it does not have to be so precise - can you provide some guidance on how to do that?

This the general formula to use:

Alert Formula For When Difference Between All 3 Study Subgraph Lines Is Less Than Chart Tick Size: =AND(ABS(SG1-SG2) < TICKSIZE, ABS(SG2-SG3) < TICKSIZE)
