Catch and forward Alert Window rows...

[vlc]

I'm wanting to catch alerts generated by a third-party indicator and don't have access to that code. Would it be possible to create an 'indicator' just to catch the signals other indicators were sending to the alerts window? Can I fetch properties of the alerts window maybe?

vlc, unfortunately you could not access the alerts window listings programmatically - best would be if the 3rd party included signals exposed for script access. Perhaps something you can ask them?

I've asked them many times over the years (to the point of nagging) to expose at least a bit of info from their system so I can plug into my other scripts. Don't know why, but every time their answer is a very blunt no. Particularly as a NinjaTrader user, one would expect much more interoperability than that. I day trade and if they were a bit more flexible about it, the task of sitting at the station all day could be made easier.
Unfortunately, their indicator is otherwise brilliant.
