Is it possible to have an alert whenever Renko chart change colour or trend? I have tried the following formula =OR(ID0.SG21>ID0.SG22,ID0.SG21<ID0.SG22) but to no avail. Can anyone help on that? Thanks.

Try this: =OR(AND(ID0.SG22[-1]>ID0.SG23[-1],ID0.SG22<ID0.SG23),AND(ID0.SG22[-1]<ID0.SG23[-1],ID0.SG22>ID0.SG23)) Here's the documentation: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_StudyChartAlertsAndScanning.php#BaseGraphIdentifiers

I have tried but don't work. I even add colour bar based on alert but shows nothing. I have check the documentation you sent me, it should be able to have an alert. Is there other formula for the Renko alert.

The formula works on the Renko bar period type in Chart Settings. This is the recommended method for Renko. Are you using the Renko Chart study instead?

Try this: =OR(AND(ID3.SG1[-1]>ID3.SG4[-1],ID3.SG1<ID3.SG4),AND(ID3.SG1[-1]<ID3.SG4[-1],ID3.SG1>ID3.SG4)) where ID3 is the Renko Chart study. Edit as needed for your situation. The same documentation applies: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_StudyChartAlertsAndScanning.php
