I don't quite understand the answer here. Can I just check per my question above if I have an extending rectangle at 1.98750 to 1.0890 with current price at 1.0870 what type of value alert SYNTAX should I use (the alert is ON - I have enabled it both via right click and alternately by Manage Chart Drawings). - ie should it be "crossing", "crossing or equal" etc etc. The alert is active but is not being triggered. Because it is a rectangle and not a line it is not crystal clear to me the alert formula syntax to be used. If price is currently under the rectangle and I want to notified when it touches or enters the rectangle I had assumed "crossing or equal to" was the correct syntax. However, I get confused because crossing could also mean that price has to cross the entire lower and upper boundary to be triggered. This is not explained clearly in the documentation and I cannot get the alert to trigger. That is the only reason I am asking the question. |
