How to create an Alert?

10-18-2022, 10:19 AM

Hello,

I'd like to make an alert sound (is there a popup?) if a certain condition occurs.

How would I do that? The help guide only mentions configuring an alert, not programmatically trigger an alert.

Many Thanks, Caesar.

Hello Skechers,

Thanks for your post.

You could use the PlaySound() method to play an alert sound when a certain condition becomes true.

See the help guide documentation below for more information and sample code.

PlaySound(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help.../playsound.htm

Let me know if I may assist further.
