I use 5 min and 1 min EMA crosses, but I can only look at one chart at once.
How can I get an alert of a cross? e.g. I’m looking at 5 in chart and I get a sound/visual alert that 1 min cross happened?
thanks
You have to use multi timeframe screener.
I have several alerts memorised, and even if a chart is not displayed in my workspace the alerts for it still produce sounds, so the question simply comes down to creating an alert on the 1mn timeframe chart you want. Looking at another 5mn timeframe chart won’t disactivate the 1mn alert.
That’s the video for creating the alert you want in 1mn with the assistant, without needing to manually code anything:

Beyond your initial question, just in case later you have ideas for more complex alerts, you can even have several conditions spread out on several timeframes:

I already use a screener for a different purpose.
Thank you, but I use multiple chart windows, is there a way to easily apply the alert to all windows?

Could you please tell us exactly what are the criteria to fire an alert please? It would be much more easier to help you 🙂
20-50 ema cross, on a 1 min chart.
I would like it so, what charts I have open, whenever the 1 min ema cross happens I get an alert.
With ProScreener window open you could scan any list of shares/instruments you want and no matter what charts are opened or not. Is that ok for you?
I already have that, but I found that it would pick up to many unwanted stocks.
Is there a way I can restrict the screener to only stocks that have risen/dropped more than 1% compared to yesterdays close? That would fix my problem.
Firstly you can make your own lists to restrict the stocks picking to a few of them.
About the EMA cross stock screener, the code should look like this:
timeframe (daily)
c1 = variation>1 or variation<-1
timeframe (1 minute)
ema20 = exponentialaverage[20]
ema50 = exponentialaverage[50]
c2 = ema20 crosses over ema50 or ema20 crosses under ema50
screener[c1 and c2]
Tell us if it’s ok for you. It seems to work ok for me.
Worked great 🙂 thank you very much for your help.
