Hi,
It would be nice if there was two conditions and two alerts.. one for buying and one for selling.


Thanks
Mike.

This is already possible two different ways.

If the Alert Condition is set on a study, add the study twice to the chart. Or use the Spreadsheet System/Alert study:

I just realized you can use any parameters on any alert condition of a study, so I made volume a buy alert and the price line the sell conditions.
So no need for duplication/spreadsheets.

I'm specifically talking about the chart setting alerts tab (I only have a single alert, but need the buy & sell alerts).
It would be great to have two conditions there as most markets allow short selling, thus it makes sense to be alerted for both buying and selling conditions.
Anyway, just feedback and thanks for the help.

Cheers
Mike.

In this case you just simply need to add the study again to the chart and use a different Simple Alert Formula. You can set the study to be hidden but the Alert Condition Formula will still be evaluated.
