Updated [LazyBear] SQZ Momentum + 1st Gray Cross Signals ━ whvntr

I have modified LazyBears Squeeze Momentum Indicator with enhancements, plus added signals
LazyBear mentioned that in John F. Carter's book, Chapter 11, "Mastering the Trade", that "Mr. Carter suggests waiting till the first gray after a black cross, and taking a position in the direction of the momentum (for ex., if momentum value is above zero, go long). Exit the position when the momentum changes (increase or decrease --- signified by a color change)." I have done just that. Now at each "first gray after a black cross", there are now Bearish and Bullish signals.. The signals only appear in the direction of the momentum.

risk with this method of identifying changes in stock market momentum.

An attempt to rename the title to: 1st Gray Momentum Signals + SQZ Mom [LazyBear] ━ whvntrRelease Notes
Great new feature: Adjust the length of the arrows in the Inputs Menu.I just made the option to shorten the length of the arrows...Enjoy!
As a note... if found no reference on the internet on how to accomplish this..
I, through trial and error, developed a path to display text via input.string in the code.
Fellow coders of Pine will appreciate this.
