I would like to have an alert condition attached to a drawing object, saved. Is this possible?
E.g. a saved Horizontal Line style that has an alert condition to play a sound file whenever price approaches the line, say 10 ticks away approaching from above or below. So whenever I add this 'custom line' to a chart, the alert is already attached/activated?
I've watched the Help video and searched but can't find a solution. I see I can set an alert on an instrument, make a drawing object (e.g. crossing a Line) a condition and use a +&- Offset but this is a pain when I always want the same thing every time I attach the line, and I see that I can't attach an alert to a drawing object although if I recall correctly there may have been some talk of changing this but don't know if done.
The 'line' could be drawn by an indicator - e.g. price returns to within 10 ticks of the high or low drawn by Current OHL. Is there a path to getting what I want that way? If I attach an alert to an OHL indicator with a 10tick offset, will that do the job i.e. if rearm and all that good stuff taken care of whenever price approaches the H/L within x ticks it will alert? And can I save it, either to the indicator or to the chart template so that it is 'always on' and ideally attached to the indicator so will always be applied? This would half satisfy compared with a drawn line, insofar as I ideally want to do same on manually not indicator-drawn line such as trendlines, Rays as and when they are drawn
thanks
