What is Cross Inside/Outside in Condition Builder?

[Tiang]

While using the Condition Builder in Alert setting in chart (NT8 v8.0.2), there is a Cross inside & Cross outside. I understand what is Cross over/under, but what is Cross inside/outside?

Found the answer

I found the answer to my own question in NT8 documentation. Eg. if draw a box around price bars, then cross outside would mean price bar moved outside the box.

Hello,

Thank you for writing in, and answering your own question!

Yes, Cross Inside and Cross Outside are conditions you can use within the Condition Builder, specifically for alerts on a chart. They may be applied to drawing objects. For example, a box or diamond. As mentioned, if the the condition parameter crosses the the drawing object's boundaries and moves inside the object, the condition parameter has crossed inside the drawing object. If the condition parameter crosses the drawing objects boundaries and moves outside the object, the condition parameter has crossed outside the drawing object.
