When using the Offset function applied to Tick, could you confirm the value entered in the Offset Field is automatically assigned the correct plus/minus sign according to the parameters selected?
Help says "An offset is a value that is added or subtracted from the actual item's value". This isn't clear (to me at least!) how added or subtracted is determined - automatically, or by specifying. I haven't been able to find any examples, videos etc using Offset
I have attached a screenshot of a 'Crosses above from below' example.
I want the Alert to trigger if price during current bar reaches 5 ticks before crossing above the current high of the OHL indicator, from below. i.e. when Price reaches Current Day High Offset by MINUS 5 ticks (rising market, price approaching Current Day High, thus a lower price).
Simply put, is the Alert configured correctly, or do I need to enter -5 in the Offset Field?
Kind regards,
Bruce
