Core logic

The EMA Ribbon calculates multiple EMAs of the selected price source using a sequence of short-to-long periods. Trend state is inferred from the alignment of the faster EMAs relative to the slower EMAs.

Key principles:

* EMAs place greater weight on recent price data for faster trend response
* multiple EMA lengths represent different market horizons
* bullish ribbon conditions occur when shorter EMAs are stacked above longer EMAs
* bearish ribbon conditions occur when shorter EMAs are stacked below longer EMAs
* neutral conditions occur when EMAs are mixed or crossing, indicating transition or chop

A fully aligned ribbon typically signals strong trend structure, while compression and crossovers often precede consolidation or reversals.

Visualization

The script plots:

* eight EMA lines directly on the price chart
* a unified ribbon color that reflects trend state (bullish, bearish, neutral)
* filled areas between consecutive EMAs to create the ribbon effect
* consistent styling for clean readability across timeframes

This makes trend alignment and transitions immediately visible without clutter.

Use case

This indicator is intended for:

* identifying trend direction and trend strength
* spotting early trend transitions via ribbon compression and crossover
* filtering entries in trend-following strategies
* structuring pullback and continuation setups
* acting as dynamic support and resistance across multiple horizons

It works particularly well when combined with price action, structure concepts, and AI-assisted chart evaluation.
