scanner gimme a light

[janio973]

Hello, I didn't know where to post my question, but i wanted to know if nijatrader 8 has a way to scan the markets for a specific configuration, for example close0>close1 or ema20>ema50
and show me the assets that have the configuration or to alert me if it happens.
I see market analyzer but I didnt found a way to do this above.
Something like strategy bulder but in a scanner,where I can write my conditions,and be alerted if it happens...idk if it is clear xd
Thanks for any help

Hello janio973,

Thanks for your post.

The Market Analyzer window would be used as a scanner. If you want to scan the market for specific conditions, you may create a custom indicator that performs your calculation, and then plot a value to reflect if a condition became true or false.

For example, if the indicator is above a value, plot a 1, if it is below, plot a 0.

Then you can apply the indicator to the Market Analyzer and you will see the 1's and 0's accordingly in the market analyzer cell. These could be enhanced further with cell conditions that colorize the cell depending on the plot value.
