  • Adding Sound alert to Parabolic SAR on change of Trend

    Can somebody direct me on where to find such EFS, or suggest how to incorporate the alarm in the Built-in EFS for trend change?

    I cannot open the Built-in EFS with the Wizard to manipulate it.

    I can open it in the Editor but dont know how to write the code for it.

    Thanks

    The attached efs will plot the ParaboliSAR and sound a ding when it flips.
    All parameters for the indicator can be changed through Edit Studies.

    As to the Formula Wizard this tool can only open an efs that has been written using the Formula Wizard itself which is not the case with the built-in(s).

      Thanks Alex for your prompt answer. The EFS worked fine but does not invoke the "Triggered Alert List" to differentiate it from other alerts I have with the same sound.

      Plus I would like to use the same alert in different time frames and would like to be able to differentiate the alarms accordingly.

      Would you be kind enough to add the necessary code to acomplish this?

      Thanks again

        The attached revision will also trigger an Alert List that includes the symbol and interval.
        If you want to change the sounds open the efs with the Editor and change the "xxxx.wav" in Lines 45 and 50 and Save with a different name.

          Terrific! That did it ---Exactly what I needed. Mega Thanks

          Incidently, After this exercise, I checked the Formula wizard to see if I could generate an EFS around the Parabolic SAR with it, and sure enough the Parabolic study was listed in the builtin studies, however, upon calling it in the function editor to enter the parameters (Start,Increment,Max), I could not enter values less than 1. Any entry fraction such as the 0.02 needed, would revert back to zero when moving the nest parameter.

          Any comments on this behavior?

          Thanks again

            The issue of Parabolic settings in Formula Wizard is a reported bug.
