Hi Programmers,

I've attempt to program an indicator that would run in the background on main window that would use the IMACD as the alert signal and playsound as the alert. I need help since I haven't figured it out yet.

Indicator criteria:

IMACD (...) crosses (up) 0.00010 (for example) then playsound.

like wise:
IMACD (...) crosses (down) -0.00010 (for example) then play sound.

Problems:

When I've tried to program this or something similar I get the playsound alert each tick above the level.

I've uses the previous bar (ie. IMACD( , , , , 1) but this just gives me the previous bars MACD and not the tick (i.e. using a 15m chart it just gives me the previous 15m bars macd). I need the signal to refresh each tick but only sound once while the condition is true (i.e. IMACD>0.0001) etc.

Thanks for your help.

Please post the IMACD indicator.

It is MACD indicator. Standard indicator in MetaTrader. Everybody is having it.
