Hi Support,

I'm looking to set alerts for when price crosses Top Band 2 and Bottom Band 2. I'm using the following conditions:

=CROSSFROMABOVE(SG4)
=CROSSFROMBELOW(SG3)

Unfortunately I'm not getting an alert when the condition occurs. Am I not configuring this correctly?

Do you have both of those formulas in a single alert entry? You can not do that for an alert, you can only have one equals sign. If this is what you did, then you need to use an OR function to combine these. Also, you are not testing against the price for the crossing. Your formula should look like the following:
=OR(CROSSFROMABOVE(C, SG4), CROSSFROMBELOW(C, SG3))

Thanks, John. The provided formula worked.
