Image shows two sets of highlighted bars. Formula segment shows essentials for shorting conditions for triggering an alert that are based on the second bar's body overlapping or equalling the first bar's body, accounting for this situation in the alert condition. Tan squares mark specific price levels. These levels appear to match and overlap correctly at the opposite ends of the two-candlestick short formations. Both sets of bars seem to satisfy the criteria for triggering a short alert. Despite meeting the criteria, only one example of this scenario has been flagged. Investigating what could cause such a discrepancy between expected and actual alerts. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2024-07-25 23:49:15

The most likely answer is that there is something not quite right with your formula. But, this could also be a floating point rounding issue. Refer to the following, although this section is for Spreadsheets, the general information on Floating Point inaccuracies is still valid: Using the Spreadsheet Study: Imprecision of Floating-Point Numbers and Comparisons For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
