FXI price alert

[r326196]

hi

There are many parameters for the price alert. Is there any write up what does each field represent and example how to set up price alert

Hi there,

Price Alert really has only a few basic settings to worry about:

For codition 1:

alertLevel1: Put in the level of the price/indicator that you want the alert to happen at.
mode1: Put in 0 for price, 1 for Moving Average, 2 for RSI, 3 for Stochastic
exactLevel1: If its true, then alert will fire only when alertLevel1 is hit exactly. If false, it will still fire even if the market jumps over it alertLevel1, never actually hitting it.

For condition 2:

alertLevel2, mode2, exactLevel2: Same thing as for condition 1.
condition2Enabled: Whether this condition is used at all or not.
condition2Separate: If true, then condition 1 can fire independently of condition 2 (ie: A -or- B). If false, condition 1 and 2 must happen simultaneously (ie: A -and- B).

Configuration fields for indicator-specific inputs:

maPeriod: The 'period' setting for the Moving Average indicator
rsiPeriod: The 'period' setting for the RSI indicator
stochK, stochD, stochSlow: Inputs for the Stochastic indicator.

And the rest are display fields, to do with how the indicator is presented and how the alert is generated.

One other thing to know is that if you are placing an alert on an oscillator (RSI, Stoch, etc.), the visual indication of where the alert is going to happen will only display if the indicator plotted on your oscillator window matches the settings used in FXI Price Alert.

(ie: stochastic settings of 14/5/5 must match the actual stochastic indicator plotted on your chart in order for you to see a line on the oscillator showing where the alert is).

Hope this helps!
