Swing Indicator

[drestew]

is it possible to add an audio alert for when the swing hi/lo is broken on the swing indicator?

Hello drestew,

Thanks for your post.

Yes, this is possible, however it would require the creation or modification of an indicator to add the alerting capabilities. if this is of interest to you I can provide links to get you started with Ninjascript.

Alternatively, you can quickly use the indicator PriceAlert in your NinjaTrader. Once the line is set in place at the swing point and price touches the line it will sound an alert as well as send an alert message to the alerts window. Once it has breached the line you can move the line to the next swing point (which then rearms the indicator). You can have multiple lines. Here is a video i made on this indicator: http://screencast.com/t/mXoafDVsTLk

I'd prefer modifying the indicator with ninjascript
