Hi,

When I examine the section: "Global Settings" ---> "General Settings" ---> "General 1", there are 64 settings for the customized sound alerts. Is it possible to increase this number to 80 or something like that ?


Thanks.

Hi,

Any update ?

I am monitoring five to six futures markets, three time frames for each contract ( on average two different markets at the same time ). I am halfway done with my alert system, and already used up 44 customized settings .......

suggest - record different sound waves of yourself speaking - eg; "Alert on weekly chart"
Then combine this alert for those times that you dont need to react immediately to the the alert?

Hi,

I think I need to elaborate:

The following are some of the alerts that I prepared using customized audio files:

a) Oil new session high ( This alert would be triggered by the five-minute chart only, once per bar. )
b) Gold new session low ( This alert would be triggered by the five-minute chart only, once per bar. )
c) ES one minute bull flag, BUY
d) Soybean five minute bear flag, SELL
e) Euro fifteen minute pullback completed, BUY
f) 6J five minute pullback completed, SELL

Now, go through all the combination of the six futures contracts, the new high/low, the buy/sell signals, and the three time-frames. I would use up all the 64 settings in no time.

A dumb solution is to open two broker accounts, and run two copies of Sierra Chart. The first copy would have alerts associated with CL, GC, and ES only; the second ZS, 6E and 6J only. This would effectively double the number of setting to 128.

I have few left for now but generally would agree with moonmist.
