Alert on new bar?

[zdzich]

Here you go I did not fiddle with it though.

Oh!

It is Renko that causes the problem. I basically marry Heiken Ashi indicator with Renko bar. This formula produces the error because of Renko bar.

I noticed that when I use normal minute chart and add Heiken Ashi indicator it ignores the indicator and triggers alerts according to standard minutes chart.

Is there a way to make the function only look at bars that are painted by Renko type with Heiken Ashi indicator?


Also original Close Bar Alert that just triggers when a new bar is painted works fine with Renko. Although I do believe that it still ignores Heiken Ashi indicator even when implemented to chart with HA on it.

Bottom line
1. Is there a way to trigger alert when Heiken Ashi changes (to different color) when it functions as an indicator on Renko type chart.
2. Why is Renko returning the error?

You would need a check for the PeriodType in your code: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...barsperiod.htm

Can you provide your code, not the Heiken Ashi code?

Sorry I don't understand what I am suppose to provide. You mean CloseBarAlert code? Or my workspace file? Or maybe my chart's template?

Hello,

Thanks for your post.

I've modified your code CloseBarAlert and attached it below as an example of how to reference the HeikenAshi indicator. I modified to add in the code needed to check bar direction change when using the HeikenAshi indicator, issue alerts for each direction and draw a triangle on the chart to give you visual feedback that the indicator detected a change in direction/color.

It is functional and can be used as it or feel free to modify to further suit your needs.

Works great! Exactly what I needed!

Many many thanks guys tremendous service!

sound alert before candle close

Good morning, is it possible to play an alert like 30 seconds before a candle closes on regular time base periods?

Thank you for your question andddres1. Please create a new thread for these kinds of topics in the future rather than replying to an old thread. New replies here are not going to be easily visible to other members of the community searching for answers to similar queries.

The sample code in the TriggerCustomEvent page should help you get started setting up an alert like this. We are happy to answer any questions as they come up.

Jim P,

I am happy to assist you.

The code I posted in post number 2 will work for you. For future reference, you can go to Tools > New NinjaScript > Indicator then just paste this code into your OnBarUpdate() method. However, Ill just attach this indicator below. To import it, go to Files > Utilities > Import NinjaScript.

Please let me know if I may assist further.

G'day,
EDIT: How about I read through the thread first BEFORE asking a question

May someone please convert the close bar alert to NT8.

Thanks

[NinjaTrader_Jim]

Hello ramos04,

We do not perform conversions by request as we cannot feasibly provide the same level of service for all of our clients.

With that said, the conversion would not be difficult to accomplish. I'll include some detail in case you or another member of the forums would like to convert the indicator.

• Creating the Plot and input variables can be created with the New Indicator Wizard in the NinjaScript Editor.
• The Alert method in OnBarUpdate() cannot be copied verbatim, but could be used with slight modifications. Please see the documentation for Alert() between NinjaTrader 7 and NinjaTrader 8 for more information.
• Colors will need to be replaced with Brushes

The New Indicator Wizard can be opened by right clicking on the Indicator folder in the NinjaScript Editor and selecting New Indicator.

I've included documentation links and a link to the NinjaScript Editor 401 recorded webinar for further direction and reference.

Someone please help, having successfully converted the closebar alert from NT7 to NT8 in post #57 (https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...5&d=1516224942), the NT8 version doesnt alert when I switch open workspaces, the NT7 version would do so.

I need it to alert when I switch workspaces
