I'm new to, well, everything forex. Also don't know the first thing about coding.
What I want to do is add sound alerts to the Advance ADX indicator but don't even know where to begin. I want to add a sound alert when the bar turns green or red. If someone could modify the code for me or point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
Here's the code:
