Dear Support

I have been unable to find a simple Price Based Alert that will allow me to select a price-level (Chart Values/ Cross Hair) or individual price bar (OHLC), and simply ask: IF Price is <, >, =, the Price-level THEN Trigger Alert Sound/Message etc.

It's so basic that I'm sure its there somewhere.

Many thanks.

There are 2 ways that I know of that you can do this.

#1 You can set an alert using the Add Symbol Alert menu item and that will allow you to specify an alert that you'll manage via the Window/Alert Manager/Symbol Alert tab.

Alerts Manager: Symbol Alerts

#2 My preferred way is to configure a Horizontal Line Alert, follow the link to see how to set alerts to Chart Drawings.

Chart Drawing Tools: Chart Drawing Alerts

You need to use the Symbol Alert feature:
