Hi
How can I set and alert condition to color the bar when price is = to S1 in the pivot point study?
i saw in other forum that use
AND(H[-1]<ID1.SG3, H>=ID1.SG3)
but its not working for me
can i make it alert me when the price equal $ to the S1?
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Your formula is valid, and it will alert at the first occurrence of the H touching or crossing the S1 from below.
But to color a price bar, you must use the formula in the Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study's Alerts tab.
However, the H rarely crosses S1 from below, so you may not see many colored bars.
The formula to compare price to S1 in $ would look something like this:
AND(C[-1]>ID1.SG3[-1]-TICKSIZE*100,C<ID1.SG3-TICKSIZE*100)
This will alert at the first occurrence when the Close price is $1 below S1, assuming the tick size is 0.01 and equals 1 cent.
what do u mean from below ? i am looking a trade when the price come from the top and going down near the first support , that mean coming from the top.right?
i am trying to save money and instead joining trade ideas i thought sierra might help me with real time support scanner .i trade stock only
Your formula AND(H[-1]<ID1.SG3, H>=ID1.SG3) alerts when the High of the previous bar is below S1 and the High of the current bar is touching or above S1.
Use a formula like this to alert when the price first comes within $1 from above S1, assuming the tick size is 0.01 and equals 1 cent:
AND(C[-1]>ID1.SG3[-1]+TICKSIZE*100,C<ID1.SG3+TICKSIZE*100)
