I have an sound alert set for the horizontal line tool, inconsistent triggering. Any suggestions?

Check the Alert settings for the Horizontal Line chart drawing. In particular the Alert Comparison Precision.

Also this is really too vague for us to give any specific answer to.

Alert Comparison Precision = Inheirited

If I bracket price with 2 horizontal lines and set "comparison to drawing" to "crossing or equal to" as price moves back and forth crossing the horizontal lines the alerts is not consistently triggered. When I look in the "alert manager" it only shows the alerts when the alert is triggered, even though price movement (crossing over lines) should have more alerts listed.

In other words I am not getting an alert every time price crosses horizontal lines, see pic for details.
