Post From: Alerts stop working for extended rectangles

One thing I am suspicious of is that I put the configuration to "alert once per bar" and the rectangle is on a TPO chart which doesn't really have bars. Would this cause any issues?
Yes, this would definitely be the cause. We kept removing the TPOs to have a simplified chart for testing, which is why were not seeing it (or thinking of it). But we tested again with your chart with the TPOs and as you suggested, there is an initial alert, then no more, and there is no bar timing to cause a reset. You may not want to use the alerts on the TPO by turning off the option for "Alert Once per Bar", as you will then get a number of alerts when the price is right at the rectangle edge, although setting it to crossing should help. But you might want to setup another chart with a specific bar period to get the alerts.
