I am trying to get a buy signal on a daily chart when RSI crosses the bottom line, bottom line is set at 10, from above. Can CROSSFROMABOVE be used for this? It is not a range but one line crossing another.
This =CROSSFROMABOVE(ID6.SG5@3,ID6.SG7@3) did not work, ID6.SG5 is the RSI Connor line and ID6.RG7 is the bottom RSI line it crosses.

I assume you are using a study and not a spreadsheet.
CROSSFROMABOVE(ID6.SG5,ID6.SG7)

You might want to read the documentation also.

Alert syntax is different than spreadsheet syntax for the CROSSFROMABOVE function:
