So it means that the request is a mission impossible on PRT?
what i am trying to achieve is to get an email notification each time when the volume exceeds a certain value ( e.g.20k) on the 1H TF.
Is it possible on PRT?
I am meaning this request.
Yes you can do above, I set it up as Volume > 30 on the 1 min TF on DJI and I have had 4 emails so far … in the last 4 mins! 🙂
Understandably the Alert has to be set up on a Market where volume is available … for example NOT Forex.
I found the email alert was triggered only once then become inactive. Is it possible to set a repeating alarm everytime the condition is met?
I am encountering this problem, can u show me how did u do it @GraHal
I found the email alert was triggered only once
To use my Alert as an example … I only get Alerts / emails when volume dropped below 30 and then rose above 30 in the next 1 min bar,
I do not (and you would not) get an Alert / Email for every bar that volume remains above 30 for the whole bar.
I just reset my Alert to All Crossings so then at least I would know that volume had reduced to below 30. I got the attached message for All Crossings.
Does that clarify how the Alert works @fatlung?
PRT Support / Anybody?
(It is confusing as it begs the question … how is > 30 different from crossing above 30 as the two settings work exactly the same?? Anybody can answer please?)
I have thought of a possible reason for above … if volume > 30 produced an alert for every bar with vol > 30 then this would be confused with the repeating Alert sound on the Platform … only the time of execution of the Alert would identify … a repeating Alert for a single meeting of the condition … from … a repeated meeting of the condition on successive bars.
In my case the alert is triggered immediately after the volume reaches x on 1H TF (not necessarily on bar close) and then the status on PRT remains ‘triggered’ and never resets on its own.
status on PRT remains ‘triggered’ and never resets on its own.
Please check if it the Alert goes back to ‘waiting‘ when volume drops below x on 1H TF?
I am checking on 1 min TF and vol > 50 over 5 mins ago and the Alert still says ‘Triggered‘ even though vol has been < 50 for5 mins.
I will leave it until vol > 50 for a second time to make sure I get another email then I will cancel the email part of the Alert to see if the Alert goes back to ‘Waiting‘ when vol goes back to < 50.
Mmm Email alerts are inconsistent …
With Email Alert Selected
- Vol went to > 50 at 10:10 having been < 50 since 10:05 but I did not get an email at 10:10 (nor up to 10:30 at time of writing this).
With email selected … display of Triggered / Waiting on the Alert monitor screen DOES NOT WORK / Change correctly when it should..
With Email Alert Deselected
- Vol went to < 50 at 10:26 and the Alert screen went immediately / real time back to ‘Waiting’.
With email deselected … display of Triggered / Waiting on the Alert monitor screen DOES WORK / change correctly when it should..
My conclusion … Email Alerts are inconsistent and cannot be relied on, sometimes they work, but often they don’t !?
Roll on Version 11!? Believe it when I see it??
Aha … I’ve found a work around … go to the Alert settings screen (after each email alert!) and click modify alert! See red arrowhead on attached.
With above work around then even with email alert selected you will get a fresh email alert once / each time your condition is met.
