I'm really scratching my head on this one, I think everything is correct and yet... Using a Spreadsheet trading system, I've got sounds set to trigger on buy and sell, and also on one other, column S. I also have sounds set for target filled, and stop filled. Any time Column S evaluates to true, the soundfile plays just fine. But any time buy or sell evaluate to true, their soundfiles do not play. Target and stop filled both work fine as well. In the study settings, both columns K and M are set to the correct audio files. The sounds play correctly in Global Settings in the Alerts section. They definitely are present and do play. Alerts are not muted (obvious since the other sounds play, but just to be thorough...) Both K and M are set to draw style of Last Bar to Edge, and I see them perfectly on my chart every time they evaluate to true. Alert Manager log, shows no alert whatsoever any time a buy or sell evaluates true. But shows every time Column S evaluates true, as well as any time a target is filled. I'm at a loss as to what else to look at. Any suggestions anyone? |

Not sure quite what you mean, have I considered using that feature? If that's what you mean then no, it won't work for what I'm doing. I am not auto trading, I'm using the auto trader to display potential signals for me to either take or not, discretionarily. I'm also doing this because once I'm satisfied with the quality of the signals, I might also let it autotrade. So I want the flexibility of both. I need the alert to sound when the visualization is placed, not just when an order is placed.

So this morning on re-opening my chartbook, the alerts are playing on buy/sell. No idea why! I changed nothing. Go figure.
