Hi , what study can we use to access "OPEN Profit/Loss" in an alert condition to be used in the Trading system based on alert condition study? The only study i am aware off that displays Open P/L is the "Trading:Profit/Loss" study...but it doesn't have output values that i can use in an alert...it only displays text. thanks |

Without writing ACSIL code, the way to access this information for an Alert is to add the Spreadsheet System for Trading to the chart and in column O enter =$J$10. Cell J10 contains the Open Profit/Loss and this will then make that number available to the alerts via ID?.SG5. Where the ? is replaced by the actual ID of the Spreadsheet System for Trading and the O column is Subgraph 5. Refer to the following for the information that particular cell: Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Open Profit/Loss [J10] And refer to the following for setting up alerts referencing a Study and Subgraph: Study/Chart Alerts And Scanning: Referencing Study Subgraphs Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
