Hi, Email alerts are easy to setup and work perfectly on manual horizontal lines. Can someone please help me how to setup the same thing for chart-studies? more specific: if my MA 100 is touched/crossed, an automatic email alert should go out. Sure this is super easy but can't figure it out on my own. Many thanks Patrik |

For this, you will need to set an Alert Condition Formula on the Moving Average study. Refer to this page: Study/Chart Alerts And Scanning There are many examples on that page. You will want to use example 21: Study/Chart Alerts And Scanning: Alert Formula Examples Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

No matter which alert sound I select, same error. also "no alert sound" isn't working - strange I really need that function and it is working on horizontal lines, but not on moving averages. hmm.. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-05-12 18:23:56

I guess like this as I can't screenshot the alert tab of the study through EDIT > SCREEN IMAGES, right?

The answer is yes in response to post #10. We now see what the problem is with this formula: =OR(CROSSOVER)SG1, H) , CROSSOVER(SG1, L)) It needs to be: =OR(CROSSOVER(SG1, H) , CROSSOVER(SG1, L)) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
