Hi JS,
you use “all crossings” in combination with a verification validity “real-time” and you use “End of Day Data” then that will not work…
why do you say that it won’t work ? because it works in some cases. that’s the strange thing
With “End of Day” data, it’s better to use “at closing price current bar” than “real-time”…
all right, that, I’ll change
With “End of Day” data you should also not use “all crossings” because these “crossings” can be over at the end of the day and no alert is triggered… (In your case, always use “>= or <=” instead of “crossings”)
yeah but if I want to be alerted whether the candle goes over or under the SMA50 ? Are you implying that I should create 2 alerts ?
Even if my alert is configured with “>=” instead of “all crossings”, at the end of the day, the crossing could be over and thus not trigger the alert. So I don’t see what difference it would make to have 2 alerts (1 with > and 1 with <) instead of 1 with all crossings. I know that in both cases the alert will only be triggered if the candle opens below SMA50 and closes above or the other way around.
