I was wondering if anyone here could help me out with this? Right now, the alert just shows up on MT4 with no email or text message sent with it.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out with this.

I guess I'm going to bump this one time and hope someone can help me. I'd do it myself, but I don't know how to code it correctly.

So if anyone could help me about, I would be extremely grateful to them.

Thanks in advance!

Done by a friend of mine and excellent programmer.

Just turn Email's ON and make sure your MT4 is setup to correctly send an email text message to your cell phone. Good to go.

Enjoy

From your second question, I gather you don't know how to setup MT4 to enable text messages? Just in case here is the whole deal. TXT for Cell's

Also, note that you HAVE to pay for a yahoo plus account. gmail etc will not work. By the way the only way I trade is by using text alerts since I live in Oklahoma and London is 2AM my time...have been using this method with few problems for 2 years.

Thank you so much for doing this!!! I really appreicate it. I got the email and phone settings set up in MT4 last evening, so this should work great now.

Thank you once again!

Exactly why I need the text alert as well. I'm up in Nebraska, so I'm dealing with the same issue you are. Need sleep, but need to get woke up for a trade if it presents itself.

Also, note ... gmail etc will not work.
there is a work-around, if you really want gmail ... I use an e-mail address from gmx.com that automatically pushes the MT4 message to my gmail address
