MultiCharts: Trading Software for Automated Trading and Backtesting

Hi,

Will you be adding the ability to set price alerts? I track 100s of symbols, I would like to set alerts for all of them.

Thanks

No sure to understand what your are looking for
You could set an alarm using trendline draw on the chart. Left click on the trendline and select alert.

I'm looking for system wide price alerts, not associated with a chart. Setting alerts in charts only work for the symbol you are charting, if I track 500 symbols I would have to have 500 charts open at all times.

Have you tried the scanner?

I have not tried the scanner, how would that work for price alerting?

Hello iso,

You can use market scanner to load multiple symbols there and apply one of the prebuilt indicators with alerts or create your own one.

Thanks for the info but that doesn't allow you to set a simple price alert. Is this something that can be added?

iso,

As i mentioned in my previous post if you need a simple price alert, you will need a simple custom indicator that is applied to your market scanner.

How would I set 500 different price alerts with that? Each stock would have one or two unique prices that I would want to know when it gets there...

Thanks

Here is an example of code for 1 stock. The more stocks you have the more lines and inputs you will need.

Thanks, but that's not realistic if you have many instruments. Is it possible to add this ability in the future?

Thanks
