Your formula needs to reference prior bars because the signals from this study do not exist on the last bar.

Based on the study data is that formula logical and would it work? Only you can determine that. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

=OR(SG1[-5]<>0,SG2[-5]<>0) The negative bracketed value needs to match the positive Length setting in the Swing High and Low study. The above formula works for a Length of 5. Keep in mind that this study 'repaints' so you won't get an alert until the arrow appears which in this example is 5 bars later. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2018-02-18 14:13:01
