Dear Sir/Ma'am,

How do I go about creating an alert for the following conditions. Not after the bar is finished but as the orders come in.

Alert 1

AskV-BidV = 200
AskV+BidV = 1000

Alert 2

AskV-BidV = -200
AskV-BidV = 1000

Thanks in advance

V

For the first one you need to use a Simple Alert Condition Formula on the chart:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_StudyChartAlertsAndScanning.php#EnterAlertOnMainPriceGraph

The formula is:
AV - BV = 200

From the above you can easily determine how the others should be done.

All of the base graph identifiers are documented here:

Thank you, managed to get the alert working.

However, I can only get 1 condition working.

How can I get both conditions working for 1 alert.

AV - BV = 200
AND
AV + BV = 1000

I tried many options from the links and I kept getting errors when I put more than one condition.

Thanks
