alert formula

[astoller]

RE: basicstochastic(alert).efs formula that you sent me.

It seems to work on a tick basis. Is there a way I can modify it so it returns only one alert at the end of a chart period, such as a 60 minute chart.

Thanks

It is possible that you downloaded the efs right after I posted it because shortly thereafter I actually uploaded a revised version that only dings at the end of a period.
You may want to download it again or alternatively substitute the relevant section of the code with the one enclosed below (assuming it is different)

if(getBarState()==BARSTATE_NEWBAR){

if(vStoch.getValue(StochStudy.FAST,-3)<vStoch.getValue(StochStudy.FAST,-2)&&
   vStoch.getValue(StochStudy.FAST,-1)<vStoch.getValue(StochStudy.FAST,-2))
   Alert.playSound("ding.wav");
   
if(vStoch.getValue(StochStudy.FAST,-3)>vStoch.getValue(StochStudy.FAST,-2)&&
   vStoch.getValue(StochStudy.FAST,-1)>vStoch.getValue(StochStudy.FAST,-2))
   Alert.playSound("ding.wav");
