Hi Apprentice,
I made a request some time ago for the ability to add a second alerted TL to a chart. Do you have time to look at this?

Why do not you use MLCA.lua instead?

Okay. I didn't realise it was there. Thank you very much.

I am trying to use MCLA.lua, but so far I have not been able to get it to sound an alert or send me an e-mail. Yes, I put my e-mail address in the indicator. My next step is go back to Line Cross Alert.lua and see if I can get that to work. Any ideas about getting this to work will be appreciated. Thanks!

You must define the trend lines, via showed menu.

OK, thanks. I thought I did everything correctly (had lines on my chart and price crossed lines, but no alert). I will download your revised version and try it again.

Hi. I discovered that my copy of the indicator was not the latest available (oops!). So I downloaded a fresh copy and tried it and it works. Great!

One way it might be improved would be if there was some way of identifying which pair(s) had experienced a line crossing. The way it is now, I could put it on 20 different currency pairs and then have no idea which one was crossing, so I would have to look at each pair to see which one(s) had triggered. And if I left the room and came back, I would have no way of knowing if I missed an event.

Possible ideas for improvement:
(1) A dashboard that logs which pair(s) had an event would be really nice (probably asking too much).
(2) An option to have a dialogue box pop-up (identifying the event, like on the price alerts).
(3) Another possibility would be to have a separate sound alerts for different pairs (like I could record my voice saying each pair by name).

Thanks again!

Also, I did not get the e-mail notification to work.
