Hello FiftyFibFX,
Thanks for your note.
This may be done using the Alerts interface with a horizontal line. Please follow the steps below:
- At the price level where you'd like the alert to be triggered, place a horizontal line by pressing F6, or by clicking the pencil icon at the top of the chart to open the Drawing Tools menu. This line may be moved later and still function with the alert.
- Right-click within the chart, then click Alerts.
- Under General, make sure Enabled is checked and set Rearm type to rearm as often as you would like once the alert has been triggered. For intraday charts, I usually prefer to set this to 'On bar close'.
- Under Conditions, for this example I'll be creating a condition to trigger the alert when the price crosses above the horizontal line. Click add to crate the condition.
- Within the Conditions menu, set the left panel to your primary data series (this should already be selected by default), set the middle drop-down menu to 'Cross above' , and select the horizontal line in the right panel. When you're done, it should look like the screenshot I've attached below:
- Click OK. The alert now has been configured to generate a message within the Alerts log, which is accessible by going to Control Center > New > Alerts Log. Additional actions, such as playing a sound or generating a pop-up message, may be added within the Actions panel.

Thank you, is there a way to change the presets of the alarm settings when selecting to attach an alarm? I'd like to have it preset of On timer and with Rearm every 5 seconds with a preset Action and if any of two Conditions are met for a trend line. Nice to have all the options available but way too many steps involved to set an alarm you regularly use.Last edited by FiftyFib FX; 09-03-2019, 06:34 AM.
