Trying to convert an alert message output from TS to SC EasyLanguage code: Alert("ABC Sell Signal for " + GetSymbolName + " at " + NumToStr(Close, 2)); TS alert message output example: ABC Sell Signal for ESU16 at 2190.75 I didn't expect this code to compile but describes the output desired: sc.SetAlert(sc.SelectedAlertSound, "ABC Sell Signal for ", sc.Symbol.GetChars(), " at ", sc.Close[sc.Index]); Is this possible to convert to SC? Thank you! |

Thanks for the link! Got it working. SCString AlertMessageString; AlertMessageString.Format("%s %s %s %.2f", "ABC Sell Signal for", sc.Symbol.GetChars(), "at", sc.Close[sc.Index]); sc.SetAlert(sc.SelectedAlertSound, AlertMessageString); |
