Is it possible to make an alert
When the last volume is greater than the last three volume bars or more
an example on the attachment

Hello salaksi1,

Thanks for your post.

Yes, alerts could be made using the Alert() method and volume could be compared by calling Volume[0] with a barsAgo value passed in for the bar you want to reference. BarsAgo 0 would refer to the currently forming bar on the chart. BarsAgo 1 would refer to the previous bar. BarsAgo 2 refers to the bar 2 bars prior to the current bar, and so on.

You could consider creating a condition that checks if the current volume (Volume[0]) is greater than the previous 3 volume levels (Volume[1], Volume[2], Volume[3]) and call the Alert() method to trigger the alert.

See the help guide documentation below for more information and sample code.

Thank you, Mr
Can this be applied to Strategy Builder
Where the entry is made when the current volume bar is greater than 10 previous bars, not only the tenth bar

Hello salaksi1,

Yes, it would be possible to make a condition in the Condition and Actions section of the Strategy Builder that compares the current day's volume (Price folder > Volume) to the volume of previous bars.

Then, you could create an action in that same Set that calls your entry order (Order management folder) and calls an alert (Misc folder > Alert). By putting the alert in the same Set as your entry order, the alert will trigger when entry order is placed.
