Does anyone know of or can code the following indicator for a fee.

Parameters:

1. Takes the daily market open price
2. Sets a buffer of X number of pips above and below the open
3. Gives an alert if a candle closes above or below it

Alert Preferences:

1. Customizable audio alert
2. SMS Text alert

Thanks

I was leaning more towards an indicator.

that is really a fairly simple simon job, the audio alerts are a breeze in metatrader 4, and they can be played quite loud if you pump the sound thru some kind of home stereo amplifier.. you can look around for any .wav file on google for specific sound clips.... try looking for phasers, they sound way cool... and machine gun sounds are nifty too. just copy the wav file to your /sounds subdirectory relative to your metatrader install directory and then use the playsound("whatever.wav"); function call.

i personally have my trading system play...

Whatever price the market opens at would be the daily open.

So if the market opened at 1.28313 that would be the open

I would want the indicator to be capable of drawing a user defined buffer. So if the buffer was set at 35(0) pips the indicator would have the following levels.

1.28663 - High Buffer

1.28313 - Market open

1.27963 - Low Buffer

If a candlestick closes above the high buffer or below the low buffer I want to hear an audio alert and receive a text message.

It's really just a simple trend filter.
