Hello,
I have setup an alert condition under Chart settings and running a continuous scan on my "associated watch list" which has a handful of symbols. Alert conditions is true for one of the symbol as I can see. I keep getting an audio alert and e-mail every time scanner scans that particular symbol in my watch list although I have setup my alert to only alert once per bar.

See attached alert settings and please advise what am I doing wrong.

Each time the scan gets to the symbol where the alert is true, it is evaluating the condition as if the chart were just being loaded. Therefore, it does not know anything about the fact that the same bar already generated an alert during the scan previously.

Therefore, there is no way to prevent what you are seeing.
