Use the OR function: =OR(CROSSFROMABOVE(C, ID7.SG2),CROSSFROMBELOW(C, ID7.SG1))

The Formula is missing an addition closed parenthesis at the end. Alert Formula Error - Chart: MESM22 [CB][M] 512 Trades #16 \| Study: Trading System Based on Alert Condition \| Error: #SYNTAX! \| Formula: =OR(CROSSFROMABOVE(C, ID7.SG2),CROSSFROMBELOW(C, ID7.SG1) Formula: =OR(CROSSFROMABOVE(C, ID7.SG2),CROSSFROMBELOW(C, ID7.SG1) ) Always break down each condition and match the parenthesis =OR( CROSSFROMABOVE(C, ID7.SG2), CROSSFROMBELOW(C, ID7.SG1) )

Ken, you need a closing parenthesis for the OR.

Thats the fix...now if wanted to have two buttons on a tool bar to turn it on or off, so that if it looks like its going to trigger a trade, but only does when it meets the alert parameters , can I do that so for example only the long would trigger if I switch the long one on....and not enter a short if it reversed on me. And also when a trade auto triggered, that the DOM settings would control the targets, stops etc? thanks Ken

now if wanted to have two buttons on a tool bar to turn it on or off To toggle autotrade on/off, you can add Control Bar Buttons for AutoTrade-Global and AutoTrade-Chart Control Bar And also when a trade auto triggered, that the DOM settings would control the targets, stops etc? On the Trade Window, check 'Use Attached Orders' after creating a trade window config. Attached Orders

Thanks again....I let the charts run overnight, and I see that the longs only are triggering....perhaps I should have two seperate setups...one for long...one for short
