I am currently using Bill Williams Fractals. It is ID6 and SG1 for short arrow and SG2 for long arrow. I have reviewed the alert documentation and couldn't see anything for alerting when the arrow appears. I've tested a handful of different formulas with no success. What is the syntax I would use?

Normally the formula would be SG1>0. But the problem is that study does not set a nonzero value at the last bar in the chart in its Subgraph.

Since the Bill Williams Fractals study paints the triangle some bars after its marked position, but never at the same bar, this formula would catch the alerts within 3 bars: OR(SG1[-1]>0,SG1[-2]>0,SG1[-3]>0,SG2[-1]>0,SG2[-2]>0,SG2[-3]>0) Date Time Of Last Edit: 2015-11-14 04:20:12

Thank you @tomgilb. I will give this a go and see if I can get it to work.
