RSI Alert

[bougie]

I tried to paste it originally into rsi.cs... might have screwed up that file possibly, how do I replace the original rsi file now?

Did you make any modifications to the original @RSI.cs file? Those errors are in the @RSI.cs file, not the file that you have open in that window.

I've tried pasting it, getting many errors, maybe not pasting in right section of code?

Hello bougie,

Thank you for your response.

You would not paste this into the RSI but would follow the instructions below to create a new indicator with the code that JC provided.

• Go to Tools > New NinjaScript > Indicator
• Next
• Name the indicator and select Generate
• Then paste the code JC created into the OnBarUpdate() method
• Then press F5 compile

Once complete you code should look like the following:

        #region Variables

        #endregion

        /// <summary>
        /// This method is used to configure the indicator and is called once before any bar data is loaded.
        /// </summary>
        protected override void Initialize()
        {
            Overlay				= false;
        }

        /// <summary>
        /// Called on each bar update event (incoming tick)
        /// </summary>
        protected override void OnBarUpdate()
        {
            if(CrossAbove(High[0], RSI(20, 3),1) || CrossBelow(Low[0], RSI(20, 3),1))
				Alert("myAlert", NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.High, "RSI Alert", "Alert1.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);
        }

        #region Properties

        #endregion

hi, sorry i have no experience with coding. Do i copy and paste that line of code into rsi.cs?

Hello bougie,

I'm not aware of an existing indicator that does this, however it would be possible with custom programming.

NinjaTrader is based on the modern C# programming language which allows advanced charting that is extensible in that you can create custom indicators using NinjaScript.

* Click here for information on programming in NinjaScript

You would want to use the Alert() method based upon the condition that you would like.

For Example:

if(CrossAbove(High[0], RSI(20, 3),1) || CrossBelow(Low[0], RSI(20, 3),1))
				Alert("myAlert", NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.High, "RSI Alert", "Alert1.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);

Let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Hi, I just want a sound alert once the lower or upper limits have been crossed. LineAlert would do the job, as I could just draw the line manually, unfortunately, it seems to only work on price bars, and not the RSI upper and lower lines.

Thanks.
