AlertIf(Sell,<FONT

C:\\Windows\\Media\\Notify.wav",<FONT 
face="Courier New" color=#ff00ff>"Audio alert", 
2,

Thanks Tomasz; 
 
All seems to be in order.  I assumed if I 
cleared the scan window, via a new backtest, and then re-scan, I'd test the 
scan/alert system, despite after hours, and no new data.
 
Now I'm thinking your system is smart enough to 
know that the data is not new;  therefore the alert shouldwork 
when new data comes in this morning.
 
No error messages, and setup appears to be 
correct.
 
Market will open shortly, so I'm going to 
wait...
 
Thanks again,
 
Richard

Richard,
 
1. Watch STATUS BAR for the display of 
possible error message generated by AlertIF
when there is a trouble playing the file
2. Open View->Alert Output.
3. Re-read Tutorial on alerts.
 
Most users are confused by the fact that AlertIF by 
default will not generate more than one
signal for the same stock and the same bar - this is so 
because AlertIF is designed
to run in real time and therefore such behaviour isneeded 
to prevent repetitive alerts.
 
If you WANT repetitive alerts (for testing) you should 
use

AlertIf<FONT 
face="Courier New">(Sell,<FONT face="Courier New" 
color=#ff00ff>"SOUND C:\\Windows\\Media\\Notify.wav"<FONT 
face="Courier New">,"Audio 
alert", <FONT face="Courier New" 
color=#ff00ff>2, <FONT 
face="Courier New" color=#ff00ff>1 /*FLAGS!!!*/<FONT 
face="Courier New">);
Note FLAGS 
parameter SET TO 1.<FONT 
face="Courier New">
<FONT 
size=2>Best regards,Tomasz Janeczkoamibroker.com

for the day...

To all;
 
Trying to get an alert to work during 
autoanalysis/scanning.
 
The scanning works correctly, givingbuy/sell 
as expected.  
 
Why can I not just add this code, after the 
buy/sell definition line, and expect the alert to occur?
 
AlertIf(Sell,<FONT 
color=#ff00ff>"SOUND C:\\Windows\\Media\\Ding.wav",<FONT 
color=#ff00ff>"Audio alert",<FONT face="Courier New" 
color=#ff00ff>2);
 
The result is no change in behavior,  meaning the 
buy/sell scan continues to work, but no sound alert.  
 Nothing.  Nada.
 
If verfied pathing.  Sound works correctly.  I 
should note I can not get any kind of alerts to work from autoanalysis, 
other than the buy/sell signals themselves.
 
Thanks for any clues/ideas/checks.
