Moving Average Entanglement

Updated
This script uses the gap in moving averages standardized to the average true range to determine entry and exit points.
The red line represents the current percentage of ATR that is deemed "The Dead Zone" - a move that is too small to be reliable.
The histogram represents the gap between moving averages. When the histogram is above the red line, it confirms a breakout move.
The dashed line an be used as a secondary filter and is a moving average of the histogram.
When Standard Deviation mode is on, a third line is displayed, which represents how many standard Deviations the current histogram bar represents, and can be also used as a filter.
