Use the Countdown Timer study to access the remaining time. You will find the documentation for it here:
Countdown Timer

Be sure to change the Input for Display Remaining Time as Seconds Only to Yes. You can then reference the Subgraph datain terms of seconds left.

For example, if the Countdown Timer is the first study (ID1), then in order to only have an alert trigger when there is 60 seconds left in a bar, you would use =ID1.SG1 < 60.

To combine this with other tests, use the AND or OR function. You will find the documentation for these here:
