=CROSSOVER(LASTTRADE,ID1.SG1) in the alert tab of your mov avg settings. this is assuming ID1.SG1 is your 50 mov avg

Tried it, not doing anything... I have other studies for MACD & RSI and all work great! My 50 MA is ID:10 of which I put in: =CROSSOVER(LASTTRADE,ID10.SG1) Help? |

you have to wait for price to crossover before hearing an alert, this is what you wanted right?

I just did it on replay as well and it didnt work either, but it works real time.. I tested it before posting it for you. I am not sure why it wont work on replay. =OR(CROSSOVER(LASTTRADE,ID1.SG1),(LASTTRADE=ID1.SG1)) this is a code that will give you an alert when it touches as well as crossover, I missed the touch part.

This is the formula to use on the Moving Average study: AND (H >= ID1.SG1,L <= ID1.SG1) Either change or remove ID1. This formula can also be tested by using the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition study. This is how we did it. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
