Is there currently an SMA or EMA alert that will alert you when the lines actually cross, rather than when the candle closes? Because the alert I am currently using "EMA Crossover Signal" seems to wait to alert me until the lines cross AND the candle closes.
The alert isn't very useful because I don't get the alert until a good amount of price action is over. (Which makes it actually worse on longer time frames, not so good on quicker time frames either.)
In the case of fast, say breakout price action the EMA alert is actually worthless.
I don't mind getting a ton of alerts; I can filter them myself. I don't need to trade on the cross before the close, but since I am trading many pairs, I definitely need an alert that will allow me to examine the cross as it actually occurs so I can monitor price action. It is not enough to decide on a trade after the close of the candle. Then any trades I get in could get me in on the bottom of the main price action instead of the top. Thus, I need the alert as the crossover occurs, not after the candle or bar closes.
So if anyone knows of an indicator that tells you as MAs cross and doesn't wait for the close that would be very helpful, thanks.
Thanks.
