Can someone please help me with this code . . . .

[michelcu]

Hello Men,

Can someone please assist me with this.

Once the condition is met for the Alert to popup it keeps on popping up every couple of seconds for the length of the bar. I run this on a single hour charts but it keeps on forcing the window to pop up.

Also, if I can stop it popping up (so I'm just advised after) does the alert reset so if it is triggered in 3 bars period if the condition goes again.

If anyone is able to help I'd appreciate it.

Regards
Steve

This component is placing it back to 0

} else

buf_alert_already_triggered = 0;


youl need to alter which

[michelcu]

Thanks Tom it works good.

One more question if you don't mind. That the alert is assumed to be triggered what's going to happen if in say 10 bars? Does the variable get reset on another bar or does the alert not work until I restart the platform?

Thanks
Steve

Youl need some method of setting it back to 0
