This indicator plots the two moving lines overlayed on price. Note that this indicator is most helpful when used with the "Trend Strength Buddy".
The lines can be useful to detect emerging or weakening trends, and will color the candles green when an uptrend is in effect, and red with a downtrend is in effect. Mind that there is no "sideways trend" detection. This trend-detector is noisier than the Trend Strength Buddy, so it is recommended to use the TSB candle-coloring algorithm in the place of the Trend Buddy's candle-coloring algorithm.
The lines plotted on price can be monitored for several signals, including
cross-overs: the direction of trend may be reversing
spreading: the established trend is gaining strength
compressing: the established trend is losing strength
touching price: in very strong trends, sometimes price will bounce off the lines and continue, providing a decent entry
When used in conjunction with the Trend Strength Buddy, the cross-overs can be the first sign of a weakening trend, and depending on market conditions may be a good spot to tighten stops or take profit.

Modified "color candles" option to default to false, as the Trend Strength Buddy's indicator is more reliable.
