Need Text Message Alert For Block Orders on Time And Sale

[AlexCA01]

Hi,

How can I get text message alert for Block Orders on Time and Sale? For example, I want to get a text message alert for any block order that is above 50 and it prints Above Ask.

Thank you,
Alex

When I meet a max number of trades, my script will tell me I have reached the max number of trades and no longer enters new trades. I use a fixedtext string, and create that since I will not need to remove it right away, I place a remove fixedtext string at a certain point in the dy which will ensure that at one or another point it will be removed so that there is not always an alert on screen.
So I assume you need to put a boolean or flag that will alert when you have reached the condition, then when that is met create a 'if ( (aboveX == true || 50oR > 50) ) { fixedtext(); } to alert on screen you have met that, you can use a X coordinate above the current last bid and try to anchor it near current price, then handle the rest will be rather simple.

Hi
my answer will be without details.
you will have to deal with the details yourself.
short:
1. to get the current ask.
2. compare the event with the current price and volume.
3. print to the data output window.

Here are two links with examples:

Hi, thanks for posting. The T&S window does not support alerts (through the common alert system). You would need to run a script on the instrument you want the alert for, and that script will use OnMarketData to emulate the T&S window.

For a full example, see the BuySellVolume indicator in the NinjaScript Editor>Indicators folder.
