Jimmy:
You mentioned PushPop could do an Alert Once function: true, if you knew
coding.
The Alert once logic would be:
x=bar-time[1]; {an elkit32 bar time function - stable bar time
comparison of 1 bar ago for tic or time}
x=string(x); {convert bar-time to String var to compare to
saved GV - which GVs are either float or string}
if alert condition and x><y then begin {y=global string variable}
....custom sound...
y=x; {once alert is activated, the comparison GV accepts the last bar
time[1] which is good for that bar}
end;
Its not rocket science, but there are 3 reasonable feasible GV alternatives
with time/date stamps:
(other languages w/difficulty between Power basic and C++ not mentioned, but
would be closer to C++ in difficult but slower than C++ or PB)
1. C++ - good for electrical engineers or rocket scientists, but coding is
extremely time consuming.
Note - Tradestation programmers cannot figure it out, so this is a base
expertise level required for C++.
2. PowerBasic (PB) - as fast as C++, programming structure done, extremely
adaptable, but final GV integrated interface not complete.
Its only a few lines a code away, other than some redundant variable
declarations of GV creation file already done.
3. PushPop - will work(!), slower than the above 2 alternatives, and no
further support of application currently.
Excellent temporary alternative at worst and final solution at best.
Due to availability of resources ($) and experience levels, PushPop may be
the most effective alternative for Omega Group-think.
