Could you help with this: I want the alert/trade entry when: ID3.SG1 crosses above SG1 (go long) or ID3.SG1 crosses below SG1 (cover long) or ID3.SG1 crosses below SG2 (go short) or ID3.SG1 crosses above SG2 (cover short) Thanks. |

Which study are you using?: - Trading System Based On Alert Condition - Spreadsheet System for Trading |

Hi Tom, I was just after the alert formula initially, the added the trade request; so I'm not using a study for the trade yet but from your examples/options, - Trading System Based On Alert Condition sounds promising. |

Try this: ID3.SG1 crosses above ID1.SG1 (go long): =CROSSFROMBELOW(ID3.SG1,ID1.SG1) ID3.SG1 crosses below SG1 (cover long) =CROSSFROMABOVE(ID3.SG1,ID1.SG1) ID3.SG1 crosses below SG2 (go short) =CROSSFROMABOVE(ID3.SG1,ID1.SG2) ID3.SG1 crosses above SG2 (cover short) =CROSSFROMBELOW(ID3.SG1,ID1.SG2) You can put them together with OR(...,...,...,...) If you use this in the Trading System Based On Alert Condition study, you'll need 4 instances, one for each operation: Buy Entry Buy Exit Sell Entry Sell Exit Trading System Based on Alert Condition |
