Adding the timeframe onto an Alert email.

[timcjpfx]

Hi

I have an indicator which sends me an email using the following code:

SendMail(@"[email protected]", @"Alert triggered on " + Instrument.FullName, @"Set order to sell at  " + (Low[0] - (TickSize * 10)) .ToString() + @" with stop loss at " + (High[0] + (ATR1[0])) .ToString());

I would like to also put in the subject of the email which time frame has been specified in the data series of the chart that is using the indicator.
Could someone help me with the additional code I would need to achieve that? I looked at TimeSeries but don't think that is correct...?

Many thanks
Tim

Hello Tim,

Thanks for your post.

The exact code needed somewhat depends on the bar type used. For example if using a Heiken-Ashi bar then there would be the sub bar type of tick, minute, etc.

Here is an example for a base bar type you can test with: Print ("Bars Type: "+BarsPeriod.BarsPeriodType +" "+BarsPeriod.Value); where the value is the bar size.

The example is based on the information here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...barsperiod.htm
