Help Candle Confirmation and alert

[pmazenett]

I am trying to modify a study I downloaded based on stochastics so that it will email me if there is a buy or sell alert. I got the email alert part figured out the only thing i am trying to figure out is how to make esignal confirm that the candle has closed remaining with a buy or sell signal before sending an email.

Im using it within this section:



function goLong(nStop) {
bEntry = true;
vPosition = "long";
vColor = Color.green;
vStop = nStop;
vLong = false;
vShort = false;
drawShapeRelative(0, low() - nSpace, Shape.UPARROW, null,
Color.lime, Shape.BOTTOM, "l"+getValue("rawtime"));
drawTextRelative(0, low() - (1.2*nSpace), "B", Color.lime, null,
Text.BOLD|Text.CENTER|Text.TOP|Text.ONTOP, null, 12, "l"+getValue("rawtime"));
Alert.email(getMostRecentAsk(),["Buy this pair:"]);
return;
}



Any help would be much appreciated

On the first tick of a new bar check for the condition to be true at the prior bar. For example assume that the signal is triggered by a cross of the Stochastic you would do as shown in the example enclosed below

var PercK = stochK(14,3,3)
var PercD = stochD(14,3,3)

if(getBarState()==BARSTATE_NEWBAR){
    if(PercK.getValue(-1) > PercD.getValue(-1) && PercK.getValue(-2) <= PercD.getValue(-2)){
        Alert.email(getMostRecentAsk(),"Buy this pair:");
    }
}
