Post From: Help with Alert Formula on Engulfing Candle Crossing Horizontal Line or w/in 1% of line

I thought by adding the alert in the Horizontal line study alert I wouldn't have to reference the SG#'s for the line
If the alert formula is on the Alerts tab of the Horizontal line study, you can optionally omit its ID#, but not the SG#.
It is a good practice to always include the ID#, even if you don't need to.
You must always include the ID#.SG# of other studies.

Also, I use multiple lines which would mean multiple SG#'s?
Yes. Each SG# needs to be referenced.

Neither of your example pics show engulfing candles.

It's not clear exactly what alerts you want.
- Are your alerts intrabar or only at close of bar?
- Must the Last price be within +/- 1% of the horizontal line?
- Can the Close be outside the +/- 1% band if it crossed the horizontal line?
