Hi,

I have been using a Custom made studies using ASCIL for Oversold and Overbought situation using RSI.

But when I applied that study to a chart, it gave all bars when this was true in the Alert Pop up. This was not during backtesting where these results would have been fine.

How do I limit the alerts to only the current bar and get the results only for current bar ?

Any function or condition will be helpful

Hello there,
I wonder if you could keep that chart hidden, and then have a separate chart that you actually use which you can have the actual alert pop up on by using:
Study/Chart Alerts And Scanning: Referencing Other Studies on the Chart

Happy Trading!

Hi,
I was not referencing to use other studies on the chart.

I created the study using the function sc.RSI function giving the proper inputs.

I had also created the appropriate conditions i.e (RSI_ <= 20 && (sc.GetBarHasClosedStatus() == BHCS_BAR_HAS_CLOSED)) for giving me the alert.

I also had the alerts printed in the Message Log in addition to being shown in Alerts Manager.

I could make of alerts that where being shown in Message Log which were not being shown in Alert Manager. What could have triggered this ?
