Add the line as shown below and put the sound file in '..metatradersounds'

PHP Code

int start()
{
   if (LastAlertTime < Time[0])
   {
      Alert("New Candle Forming on ",Symbol()," TimeFrame: ",Period());
      LastAlertTime = Time[0];
      // Copy your preferred wav sound file to the '..metatradersounds'  folder. 
      PlaySound("MySoundFile.wav");
   }
   return(0);
}

If the file does not add to the chart, it has not compiled correctly

MT4 does not play mp3. files. You will have to convert it to wave(extension wav) format.

The file name parameter in PlaySound should be without the file extension. My mistake. Also it appears that Alert() overrides PlaySound() so one can't have both at the same time.

Covert files from mp3 to wav:

Your sound file in wav format is too big to post here. Get it here:

Anyway, I...
