@danjuma: Just reading this by accident, if you want to make sure that I read a message, please use the mention "@Fat Tails". That way I will be alerted.

The indicator is not designed to be used with the market analyzer. It creates sound alerts by itself.

If you want to use the indicator with the market analyzer, I would have to create an artificial, transparent plot which can be accessed. The plot would take integer values for any type of signal

no signal -> plot = 0.0
first line crossed -> plot = 1.0
second line crossed -> plot = 2.0
etc.

and you would then be able to check for alerts. However, this would require to modify the code by adding an additional plot and affecting those values in case that an alert is triggered.

Hello Fat Tails,

Thanks for your reply, and I have taken on board your advice regarding alerting you.

Would this be something you would be willing to do please?

Basically what I want it for is this. I normally monitor a number of stocks on the Market Analyzer, and would like to be alerted when a stock price hits one of my drawn lines, if you know what I mean.

Many thanks
Dan

@danjuma: I would love to do everything I am asked to do, but unfortunately my time is limited. During the last weeks I have had only little time to spend here in the forum, and I am behind with a lot of other projects. Don't expect me to do anything this year, please.
