Was trying to set up an alert when the last trade crosses the pivot point. I tried =CROSSOVER(ID1.SG13,LASTTRADE) but this generated an error. ID1.SG13 is the PP of the Pivot Point - Daily Study. Thanks, Patrick |

We do not receive an error with that formula. However, we recommend using: =CROSSOVER(ID1.SG13,C) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

OK, but does that wait till the bar closes to give the alert? I would like to happen immediately if possible.

It will happen immediately as long as you have not enabled Evaluate on Bar Close.

OK. I understand - I thought C was always implying it would wait for the close. But I can use C comfortably in most situations as long as Evaluate on Bar Close is not selected. Correct?

No. This means the close price of the current bar. Refer to: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_AlertCondAndScan.html#BaseGraphIdentifiers It will work as intended.
