Try it on the stratergy tester and you will see how it alerts, it can have a popup window and extra sound or just sound.

cja PS indicator on above post just save over the 1st one
CJA = the best!

Yes I can hear the extra sound and will see how it performs today. I have another favor to ask you. This alert will work ideal for my scalping method but not my original system. In scalping I look at the longer TF's to see if I have confirmation that they are in agreement. Then I switch down to lower TF's one by one until I come upon the first TF's that is in a counter trend.

This alert will be excellent to get me into the main trend once the alert sounds that the lower counter trend makes it's first alert to the color of the main trend. I will get into this deeper on this site soon.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
So here is my request for the alert to be modified to handle both of my methods. May I ask of you to add the following:

Instead of having two seperate alerts one for "scalping" and one for the original concept call it for name sake "typical set-up";

Can we add or modify some code to have the alert look at more then 1 TF. Keeping one alert with options. So in assence a tab like the true/false tabs (unsure what you call them) to be called "TF's". With this we can set it at 1 to 3 TF's. So if the indicator is set to "2" it will need two TF's with the same change colors at close to become true.

Example: We are on the 5M/15M/30M/1hr platform setting and presently the alert looks at the lowest TF being the 5M. The code now alerts us when the 5M changes color on the close.

Can we add the 15M to the above before condition = true? So in the example the alert will pop up when the 5M & 15M show same color on close. And of course the same thing for the setting at "3" e.g. three TF's all the same color at close.

Lastly, can we make the alert chime repeat "x" number of times? I want to make sure this baby wakes my ass up!

This would allow us to get alerts on both of my systems.
