Setting Time Alerts or modifiying the scrolling time

[pthomas]

Hello,

Is there any way to mark specific times on the charts or set a time alert. For instance, If I am watching 15 and 45 past the hour from 9-1300

Thanks!

Hello pthomas,


Thank you for your post.


You can right click on your chart and select Alerts. In the Alerts Window you can select add in the conditions area. In the conditions window, you can select Time and your data series on the left and then Time and Time value on the right side and enter your time value. Select Equals as the comparison operator and click Ok. Ensure If Any is selected.

Then in the Actions area, you can click add, to add an action. Here you can select Play a sound for an audible alert and click Ok. Ensure that the rearm type is set to on timer and that the enabled box is checked.


Unfortunately, there is not an option to make a visual change to your chart as an alert action, this would require importing a custom script or manually coding a script to accomplish.


Here is the publicly available Configuring Alerts Help Guide to assist you further.


Here is the Alerts video tutorial to demonstrate.
