Is it possible for you to code an alert for BTD such that I could adjust the percentage to compare the previous bar.

Cost and how long would it take to get it.

Thanks

Yes we can do this.

We just need a more precise definition of exactly what you need to do and then we can let you know the time.

Thanks,

I trade many products (16), and use Bar Time Duration as indicator as to which market or product is the most active. It would be great to see an alert, like sound or chart back ground change on any of the products I trade to know it's active. So I want a coded script or what ever software that would give me from the BTD an indicator I could feed to an alert. I to be able to adjust this indicator in percentage form due to time of day and different market, such that if the BTD decreases from 2:50:25 to 1:45:10 on over night Globex I can adjust for this in percentage form to get an alert, vs. regular market times when the BTD is 00:08:15 to 00:02:33 for the next bar. I don't know to where the numbers are going to fall, but there is a percentage factor I can adjust to to get an alert. If it could be written to capture on and off peak hours of the market (with me making the market start / end time adjustments) all in one script, tha is even better.

Thanks

Add to the above: To prevent chatter of the alert on the last price bar, the code should only evaluate the next to last bar to the one previous to it.
