Is it possible to trigger an alarm for a volume greater than, for example, 1000 contracts on the footprint chart, but in a specific place, e.g. after crossing a line or in a previously selected field. 2 conditions must be met.

Are you wanting to test for a volume of 1000 at a specific price level, or a volume of 1000 for the entire bar? To get the volume at a specific price, you would need to use the VAP() function for the alert. Refer to the information here: Study/Chart Alerts And Scanning: VAP But then you need to know the price level at which you want to check. Or you can check the entire range of the bar by using the OR() function, which would look like the following: =OR(VAP(L, 0) > 1000, VAP(L + TICKSIZE, 0) > 1000, ...) You would then add the other condition using the AND() functionality, which can be nested. So you could have something like the following: AND(OR(VAP(L, 0) > 1000, VAP(L + TICKSIZE, 0) > 1000, ...), AndCondition1) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Check the Alert Manager (Window >> Alert Manager) and see if it is reporting a syntax error. But it will only tell you that there is an error somewhere in your formula. There is not a way to get information on the specific issue in the formula - you need to work through that.
