Hello Mario,

Is it possible to add an alert/alarm so that if a candle/wick breaks either of the outer bands you can get an email/popup/alert?

Thank you,

Terry

Extreme_TMA_Line with Alert.lua added.

Hello Mario,

I thought I posted a reply but may have not hit the submit.

I have Trading Station and MarketScope configured to send me emails via the test feature but I'm not getting email alerts or popups from the indicator. I'm new to TS & MS so it could be something on my end - any suggestions?

Thank you,

Terry

Unfortunately TS does not provide support for alerts from within indicators.
Therefore _Alert helper is introduced.

U have to have active _Alert helper.
U have to have an instance of _Alert Helper for each currency pair of your interest.
U can add _Alert helper same as any signal or Strategy.

In the following Ts, update, TS will support even Alert Trade functionality.
Until then _Alert will be required.

Sorry for the noob question Mario but and trying to figure out how to activate the alarm.

So in Marketscope 2.0 I start Extreme TMA. And then, I assume, I have to go to Alerts and Trading automation and then go to New Strategy or Alert and start _Alert so that it can port the alarm settings from Extreme TMA?

Is there a post that gives step by step instructions?

Thanks again my friend,

Terry

1. Install _Alert Helper.
2. Add it as any Signal/Strategy.

Once you do that.
_Alert Helper will appear in the upper left corner.

Alerts will now work for respective currency.

Hello Mario,

I installed Alert as a Signal/Strategy and then added it to the pairs I'm looking at however I'm not getting any emails or alarms. Email is configured and a test message works.

I'm on a 15 minute chart if that matters.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Terry

I assumed it was a problem with _Alert helper.
Sorry about that.
The problem was with indicator itself.
Please re-download.

Hi Mario,

The alerts are now working - thanks!

However the top, middle & bottom alarms seems to be out of whack. Best as I can figure if I get a top line alert it is really the middle line being crossed over. Id I get a bottom line alert it is really the top line being crossed over. I have yet to receive a middle line alert.

I appreciate all your help with this.

Terry

Fixed.
