Hi, very inexperienced with indicator development but I wanted to be able to save a drawing tool setup with Alert conditions on it so I don't have to enter them manually every time. For example anytime I drew a specific kind of trendline such as F4, it would automatically have a specific Alert - Submit MIT order condition attached to it, to avoid having to go in and insert it manually every time. Any suggestions of where to start would be appreciated.

Hello delux9,
Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!
Below is a link to a forum thread with some helpful starting resources on C# and NinjaScript.
That functionality would have to already exist with the system built in drawing tools to be able to use the those particular hot keys.
However, you can make a script that responds to key presses, and trigger actions like alerts and drawing objects.
A heads up, working with key presses is intermediatory in coding proficiency.
Below are some links to examples of capturing keypresses.
An example of initiating a drawing tool.
And a link to the help guide on Alert().
