I use the large volume indicator on my chart, and I need help setting up the audio alert every time there
is a bubble of 50 and above even if its multiples times in the same 5min candle. my large volume indicator threshold is 35 and want alerts for 50 and above.
when i go to the alert settings and input SG1>50, i only get one alert per candle.

Thank you

For this you need to use the Alert functionality which is part of the Time and Sales window:
Time and Sales Window

Otherwise, it would be impossible, using the Simple Alerts on the Large Volume Trade Indicator study.

I was primarily using the time and sales windows until I found a solution for the large volume trade indicator but I’ll go back to it. I closed the time and sales window this past trading week and noticed I don’t get the alerts, does the time and sales window need to be opened to receive the audio alerts?

Yes it does make sense the Time and Sales window needs to be open for those alerts to function. Otherwise, the data does not get processed.
