all you have to do is search...it is probably here and available...if not you could copy code from a different indie or just ask.

Thanks Wldman,

Below is the code -

high is greater than or equal to Highest("data" = HIGH, "length" = 60)

I'm actually trying to have it give me the "last" instead of the "high" so I can run the code during trading hours, not sure if that's possible.

I wanted to have it send me an "alert" anytime this criteria was meet.

Any ideas?

Thanks much

there ate two ways of doing such alerts:
thirst one is to use an alert() function. Read its description here: Learning Center ? Charting
Read it please, especially the definition of alert.(tick,bar,once)
You can use "close" instead of "Last", its equal.
here's a little piece of code, you can put this study on chart.

def cond = high is greater than or equal to Highest(close, 60);
alert(cond,"NewHigh",alert.tick,sound.ding);

This study will show an alert on every tick when condition is met.

The second and much more elegant way to do this is to use Alerts() tab
Marketwatch--->Alerts
It allows you to set as much alerts as you want and also you can have an alert if the condition is met on your choosen timeframe.
contact me in skype: mrsmokefun
i'll show how to set this alert (absolutely free)
hope it helps
