Post From: JPY futures symbol and alerts

New user. I have an alert set on the Heiken Ashi Smoothed study to alert when the color change takes place. Here is the formula. =OR(AND(SG4>SG1,SG1[-1]>SG4[-1]),AND(SG4<SG1,SG1[-1]<SG4[-1])) It works as expected on all but the JPY futures contract, which uses (at least from the IB feed)6 places to the right of the decimal point for pricing. EX; current price is 0.01215. In addition I believe it can fill in 10ths of a point meaning 8 total digits to the right. The alert doesn't work on JPY when instead of < or >, one or both of the figures are =. It makes no difference on the symbols with 4 digits to the right, they fire as expected. I have tried building the chart from scratch, doing a duplicate and then changing symbols. Nothing has worked so far. I am thinking that the other symbols are able to read the tenths of a point, therefore it is highely unlikely that there is actually an =. But since it appears the furthest out SC goes is 6 digits to the right, the JPY can't read the tenths of a point and so doesn't see the qualification. Can you give me a different formula, or is there a way to build the script based on the color itself of the HA Smoothed study. Thanks
