Price alert

[sunnyrain]

Hi,

I link market analyzer and chart. What is the most feasible way to set price alert on multiple charts? Due to my workspace limitation, I cannot open more than 10 chart windows. If I want to set price alert on mulitple charts, how can I do this? I just read from MA forum that market analyzer doesn't support price alert. Thank you.

Market analyzer support alerts (please see docs), chart don't (unless coded in a NinjaScript indicator/chart, please see docs).

Hi KBJ and Dierk,

Thank you for quick reply. I am not sure I understand. From document, the alert is created per column, not per cell. I set alert to triggle if last price is great than 30. The problem is that I only want this alert to happen on certain symbol, say BRCM. For GOOG, I may want to set alert if last price is larger than 570 because it doesn't make sense to set price alert of GOOG at 30. Can I achieve this? I tried on MA but for all of the symbols in MA, the last price alert is at 30.

Thank you.

You could write a special indicator to load into the Market Analyzer that would check for a match on the Instrument name as well as the price.

Something like this...

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
    check_alert( "GOOG", 570 );
    check_alert( "BRCM", 30 );
}

private void check_alert( string sym_name, double sym_price )
{
    if (Instrument.FullName == sym_name)
    if (Close[0] > sym_price)
    {
        Alert( sym_name + CurrentBar, 
           NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.High,
           String.Format( "Stock {0} has exceeded a price of {1}", sym_name, sym_price ),
           "Alert1.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);
    }
}

I haven't tested this, but it should be a starting point for you.
