How can I make a simple alert like sound and message

when price is above or below Keltner Channel.

Thanks,

Haim.

Hello Haim1,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader Support Forum.

This would not be possible without custom programming as the Market Analyzer will only do basic filtering.

NinjaTrader advanced charting is extensible in that you can create custom indicators using NinjaScript which is based on the modern C# programming language.
For information on programming in NinjaScript please visit the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h..._resources.htm

Your code would look similar to the following:

if (Close[0] > KeltnerChannel(1.5, 10)[0])
Alert("myAlert", NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.Medium, "Price is above KeltnerChannel", "Alert4.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);

if (Close[0] < KeltnerChannel(1.5, 10)[0])
Alert("myAlert", NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.Medium, "Price is below KeltnerChannel", "Alert4.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Thanks for your quick replay.

I don't know how to program but I understood your code.

The question is if I can create such coding with NO personal programming.

I guess I can do that with "custom indicators using NinjaScript"

Can I do that in a way that will give a solution to my original question?

Thanks for your help.

Hello Haim1,

Thank you for your response.

This would not be possible without programming yourself, however we do not normally program custom indicators or strategies for our users but I would like to create this indicator for you. Please confirm and I will be more than happy to assist further.

In the future you will need to use one of our NinjaScript Consultants: http://www.ninjatrader.com/partners#...pt-Consultants

I look forward to assisting you further.

WOW !

It will be great if you can do this.

I'm looking forward to see the result.

Again, thank you.

P.S.
It is after midnight here - so I will check this post tomorrow morning my time ...

thank you for creating this indy....downloaded it but.....no signals generates on charts

Hello mystiq,

Thank you for your post.

The indicator provided in this thread does not generate signals on your chart, but creates alerts based on whether the current price is above or below the Keltner Channel.

If you would like to alter this NinjaScript code to generate signals on your chart, you may do so. If you have any questions please respond and I will be more than happy to assist you further.
