Is there a way to have more then one alert on a study.
Example - I would like an alert to tell me when there is a new high or a new low.
Using the OHLC study?

You should be able to accomplish what you want using a combination of AND and/or OR functions.

For example, using the Period OHLC - Variable Period study, you would enter the following formula to alert when there is a new High or new Low =OR(SG2 > SG2[-1], SG3 < SG3[-1]). Just be sure to select the option Reset Alert Condition on New Bar, or this will only work once and not alert you again when there is another new High or Low.

The documentation for the AND and OR functions in an alert can be found here:
