MGH-CrossAlert Histogram — Know the Trend Direction at a Glance
What if you could see the relationship between any two lines — not just as a crossover, but as a continuous, color-coded histogram right below your chart?
MGH-CrossAlert Histogram is the visual companion to the CrossAlert Cloudy indicator. Instead of watching lines on the price chart, this version gives you a dedicated sub-window histogram that tells you — bar by bar — which line is dominant, how strong that dominance is, and exactly when a crossover happens.
No clutter on your price chart. Just clean, instant visual information.
🟢 Green. 🔴 Red. 🟡 Yellow. That's all you need.
The logic is beautifully simple:
- Green — Line 1 is above Line 2. Bullish structure.
- Red — Line 2 is above Line 1. Bearish structure.
- Yellow — The two lines are equal. A crossover is happening right now.
Every bar on the histogram reflects the live relationship between your two selected lines. The moment the color changes, the balance of power has shifted.
⚡ Professional Histogram Mode — See the Strength, Not Just the Direction
Activate Professional Histogram and the indicator adds a second layer of intelligence.
In this mode, bars are displayed in two shades — a brighter color when the gap between the lines is widening (momentum building) and a darker shade when the gap is narrowing (momentum fading). This lets you distinguish between a strong, expanding trend and a weak, exhausted one — before the actual crossover happens.
It's the difference between knowing which direction and knowing how much conviction is behind that direction.
⚙️ Same Powerful Engine — Full Line Flexibility
Like the Cloudy version, every aspect of both lines is fully configurable:
- Line types: Ichimoku lines (Tenkan-sen, Kijun-sen, Span A, Span B, Chikou Span), Moving Averages, Trend Lines, or raw Price
- Timeframe per line: Each line can reference a different timeframe — monitor an H1 Tenkan against an H4 Kijun on the same chart
- MA methods: Simple, Exponential, Smoothed, Linear Weighted
- Shift support: Apply candle-level shifts to either line for advanced structures like Tenkan+17
- Histogram shift: Shift the entire histogram forward or backward for alignment purposes
🔔 Alert System — Built In
The histogram isn't just visual. The same alert engine from CrossAlert is embedded:
- Alert On Cross — fires when the two lines cross (color changes green ↔ red)
- Alert On Same Value — fires when the lines reach equality (yellow bar)
- Candle Number To Check — set to 0 for live candle alerts, or 1 for confirmed closed-candle signals
- Delivery options: popup window · sound · email · push notification
📊 Practical Use Cases
✅ Tenkan vs Kijun histogram — see every TK cross and its strength without any chart clutter
✅ Kumo cloud direction — monitor Span A vs Span B dominance as a clean histogram
✅ Multi-timeframe MA crossover — track H4 SMA 50 vs H1 EMA 9 relationship bar by bar
✅ Price vs MA — instantly see when price is above or below a key moving average
✅ Professional mode — detect fading momentum before the crossover, giving you earlier warning
🛠️ Clean Setup — Two Steps
- Select Line 1 — type, period, method, timeframe, shift
- Select Line 2 — same options, independently configured
- Choose your alert conditions and enable Professional Histogram if needed
The histogram appears in a separate sub-window, keeping your price chart clean. Works on any symbol and any timeframe.
Who Is This For?
- Traders who want trend direction at a glance without analyzing overlapping lines
- Ichimoku traders who want to visualize TK or Kumo dynamics more clearly
- Multi-timeframe analysts who need a quick dashboard of higher-TF line relationships
- Anyone who wants early warning of momentum fading before a crossover occurs
MGH-CrossAlert Histogram. Direction. Strength. Timing. All in one color.
