Alerts not working the way I want them.

[cooptae3030]

Hi I'm having trouble with the indicator alerts. My goal is to set my alerts and have them trigger every time it's contacted by the candlesticks. The problem I'm having is the alert will trigger once then stop working. Also I have several alerts setup but none of them work at all. It seem only one alert works at a time and it's hard to find any detail directions on how to set them up properly. Thanks

Hello cooptae3030,

Thank you for writing in!

If you have not already, I highly suggest watching the following publicly available videos and then reading through the additional Help Guides for specific information on any of the settings:

• Video Demonstration on Configuring Alerts — https://youtu.be/zWITp-OaDFg

In regard to "the alert will trigger once then stop working."

• This is most likely because of the Rearm condition you have chosen:

If you set up an Alert and it is not functioning as you would expect, please take Screenshots of the Over Alert window and then click edit on each of the Conditions and take a screenshot of those too and include them in a response so we could explain how we would expect for the Alert to work and also test it in our own platform and see if it triggers as expected.

What setting do I use to trigger the alert for crossing "above" and "below"? When I set the condition to equal nothing happens.
