Hi all,

need a liitle help. This formula I'd like to use =L[-1]> L (only as an example) but I want it improve a little.

Case 1:

"L" should not lower than 3 Ticks

Case 2
"L" should lower than min 10 Ticks

Many thanks for help

Your conditions are not clear. Please explain further.

The formula will include this:
TICKSIZE*3

Here's the documentation for Simple Alerts:

Hi tomgilb,

many thanks for help. I know that documentation but it is not clear enough for myself.

I try to explain it in words.

Condition> Alert on if lower 3 ticks

Low of previous candle = 10600
Current low = 10598 ==> Difference = 2 Ticks ==> Alert on

Low of previous candle = 10600
Current low = 10595 ==> Difference = 5 Ticks ==> NO Alert

Many thanks

Try this:

=AND(L<L[-1],L[-1]-L<TICKSIZE*3)
