AddOn and Alert Event data

[johnok]

Hello,

Is there a method or callback to get alert data from Addon when you create an alert from a graphic ?

I would like to know if i can store every created alerts to Addon.

Thanks.

Hello johnok,

Thanks for your post.

To clarify, are you wanting to access alerts that are created in the Alerts window (for example, right-click on chart > Alerts). See attached image.

If so, the chart alerts are not accessible from Ninjascript. You cannot create chart alerts from Ninjascript.

Something you could do is create an AddOn and code for an alert based on some action. You could use the Alert() method in a script to create an alert.

See this help guide page for more information: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...nt8/?alert.htm

Let us know if we may assist further.

Thank you for you answer,

So i can not access to alert from Addon, Ok !

And is it possible to access to alerts from an indicator, or even list all created alerts ?

Thanks

Hello johnok,

Thanks for your note.

There is no supported way to access Alerts made in the Alerts window.

That said, you could potentially use the Alerts collection. See the example in the forum thread below.
