Audible Indicator Alerts?

[Jibu V]

I am using a CCI as one of my indicators and would like to setup an audible alert to trigger when the CCI crosses certain levels. Is there a way to set this up? I understand there may be a way to do it through the market analyzer, but it seems like I would have to set it up everytime I log back in and I would have to keep the market analyzer open. Is there a way to set it once and leave it like that and be able to close the window, or any other way? I am pretty new to NT6. Thanks in advance.

Dierk's response will work if you are programming a custom indicator. You can use our Market Analyzer to create alerts if certain CCI values are breached.

Is there a way to set the alert and close the Market Analyzer window, while keeping the alert condition active? Also, I tried creating a custom strategy where a sound would go off when the CCI crossed a certain point and I thought I set it all up correctly, but it doesn't seem to be making any sounds when the CCI crosses...

- please check your logs.
- please verify that your conditions is triggered by e.g. placing Print() statement instead of the audio alert

I noticed the reference to the macd indicator and was wondering if you have the code that provides an alert when the lines cross. I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks

Hello Jerry1,

See here for a recent discussion on setting crossover alerts in the market analyzer.

Brief Summary:
In Version 6.5: Crossover alerts must be custom coded.
In Version 7: You can select crossover conditions in the GUI for setting up alerts.

Apologies for highjacking this tread .The values being shown on the market analyzer is different to the values calculated by the indicator itself. In this case, it's the cci value.The current value of my CCI is 33.3 but it's showing 18.66 on the analyzer, meaning the alert cannot be trusted. I'm using version 6.5.....Any ideas what I'm doing wrong please...Thanks in advance

Hello horsemouth,

You will need to confirm that the chart settings for the data series & indicator settings for CCI match. Please see the 4 screenshots I have included.
