Configure alerts

[Powerbucker]

Hi,

I want to put a line on the chart and set an alert so that when the price touches the line it is executed. I have done a test and the alert is triggered when the M5 candle closes and I need it to be triggered just when it touches the price, even if the candle has not closed.

Thanks

Hello Powerbucker,

Thank you for posting.

So I may look into this further can you please attach a screenshot of your current alert settings and conditions.
To capture a screenshot I would recommend using Window's Snipping Tool.

Alternatively to capture a screenshot press Alt + PRINT SCREEN to take a screen shot of the selected window. Then go to Start--> Accessories--> Paint, and press CTRL + V to paste the image. Lastly, save as a jpeg file and attach the file to your reply.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Powerbucker,

I've moved your post to the NinjaTrader Desktop > Indicator Development section of the forums as this is an inquiry about developing a custom indicator (programming in C#).
