Hello, how do you (if you do) control e-mail alerts in ACSIL? I need to send an e-mail on execution etc ...

Thanks

Global Configuration/General Settings Check send email when alert is triggered and fill in the email.

Use sc.SetAlert() in ASCIL code to trigger the alert.

I tried to send execution price via email alert but I get zero values in email for both variables (sc.GraphName and quantity) and dunno why. Can you have a look at the code? Thx

 
Code
// Set default position size
			int quantity = 1;

			// Create new market order object
			s_SCNewOrder NewOrderLong;
			NewOrderLong.OrderType = SCT_MARKET;
			NewOrderLong.OrderQuantity = quantity;

			// Send order and get result
			OrderResult = sc.BuyEntry(NewOrderLong);
			if (OrderResult > 0) {
				
				// Get actual position data
				s_SCPositionData InternalPositionDataOnEntry;
				sc.GetTradePosition(InternalPositionDataOnEntry) ;
				
				// Send alert by e-mail
				SCString alertMessage;
				sc.FormatString(alertMessage, "%s -> %d(at)%f", sc.GraphName, quantity, InternalPositionDataOnEntry.AveragePrice);
				sc.SetAlert(1, alertMessage);
			}
