Post From: Alerts on Price False Triggering

I sometimes rearm using the Context menu but usually within the Alert manager by Double Clicking the Triggered Alert on the 'Symbol Alerts' Tab.

I know it shouldn't make a difference but I generally trade ES and NQ using SC Data feed. To give an example, lets say I had an alert set to trigger at 3697. The price might have hit a high of 3697.5 and then closed at 3696. I go to the Alert Manager and reset the Alert to trigger at 3697.25. The price is currently still < 3697 the Alert will often trigger immediately. If I wait sometimes a few minutes and then rearm it is sometimes ok. If I create a NEW alert with EXACTLY the same trigger and price conditions the Alert will not trigger. So it appears it is not resetting the 'Triggered Value' Condition.
