Alert on Close of Bar

[swan]

I am getting alerts on intra-bar, this results in sometimes many alerts before the bar is closed.

I am unable to find or work out how to get the alert to trigger only at the close of a price bar..

Help appreciated

thx

That is one thing you cannot do (for now) with the Formula Wizard.
You need to open the EFS with the Editor then anywhere in the preMain() section write the following command

setComputeOnClose();

example

preMain(){
there may be code and other messages here
setComputeOnClose();
}

This will instruct the EFS to provide signals only on the close of a bar

Alex ..thx

However i am getting a Syntax Error "invalid label".

Definately typed it in Pre-main.
Chose a blank line which highlighted in Yellow, and then i typed
setComputeOnClose():

You used a colon ie : at the end of the command and it needs to be a semicolon ie ;
