Alert line in indicator panel
Is there an alert indicator than can be added to a horizontal line drawn in an INDICATOR panel, not the instrument price panel?Tags: None

Price alert of VOL indicator
Is there a way to get an alert on the VOL indicator?
I have tried to use the Price Alert indicator for this with no success. In the indicator parameter box, I specified Panel 2, which is where my VOL indicator is in the data box, and even though a price marker showed up on the VOL indicator at the bottom of my chart, an alarm didn't go off when volume reached the price marker. By the way, the alarm works fine when I use the Price Alert for a given price. Thanks!

I only want to draw a horizontal line on an indicator, "attach" it to the desired indicator plot, and then set the alert.Last edited by ScorpioTravis; 02-02-2013, 06:40 AM.

The input DataSeries to the indicator, not the horizontal line, is the main instrument plotted in panel 1.

If you want it to be triggered by the indicator's plot, then you need to use that as the input. All indicators respond to their input, that must be specified correctly for one to get correct results. A case of the old aphorism, GIGO.

It seems to me that what you describe is an indicator being an indicator of itself.
Let's assume that I have an instrument plotted as five minute bars with MACD plotted in panel 2, the input series being the aforementioned instrument. I want to draw a horizontal line from the last "swing high" bar of the MACD histogram bar. If a MACD histogram bar crosses over that horizontal line, then I want to be alerted. Please provide instructions to it.

Please provide instructions to it.- You put the PriceAlert() indicator into Panel 2.
- Make the MACD the input of the PriceAlert() indicator. After all, you are asking for when a level is exceeded on the MACD, so the only possible input is the MACD; on which you will have to take your measure.
- Draw your level.
