Combine conditions in alert

[kono123]

I want to ask, can I add an “or” condition to my alert? Looks like NT8 doesn't support this. I only see “if all” and “any” in combining conditions. If I have 3 conditions, an alert appears when 1 of those 3 conditions is met, instead of just creating 1 alert with the combination of conditions using “Or”, I instead have to create 3 other alerts with “if all” . Or does it seem like I'm misunderstanding how to create an alert? please help.

Hello kono123 ,

Thank you for your message.

Yes, using the default Alerts within NT8, you are limited to more basic types of alert functions.

If you want to read more about what you can do with the built in Alerts, please see the links below:

NinjaTrader YouTube - Alerts & Alerts Examples

If you wanted to add an "or" condition or create more advanced types of alerts, you would need to do so with custom scripting.

If you would like to learn more about scripting multiple layer alerts on NT8, please reach out to our engineering team at
