Alarm on trend line

[InvGrp2]

Is it possible to have an alarm put on a trend line so it will beep when price touches the trend line?

Bruce,

This cannot yet be done, however it is something we would like to do in the future. If you are just looking for horizontal lines (i.e. Support/Resistance Levels,) then I would suggest you check out this thread.

Thanks for the info.

Sure hope it will be added in the future.

P.S. small arrows would be great also (to mark trades)

Here's a quick tip about drawing arrows and other symbols with eSignal.

Many software products have an arrow drawing tool that allows the quick ability to place buy/sell arrows on the chart. While this can be done with the Arrow tool on the "pencil" of the Line Toolbar, there is much more variety available with the Wingdings font and Text tool. To try this out...

1) Right-click the Text button on the Line Toolbar.
2) Select Wingdings 3 in the Font menu. Click OK.
3) Click on the Text button and click on the chart.
4) Click on the Font button to set the color/size/etc. for the object
you are drawing.
5) Type in a few symbols to find the one you want. Click OK.
6) Place the Wingding symbol on the chart in the appropriate place.

Here's an example of the things you can do!
