Help me fix this Alert Indicator

Hi,

I just edited this indicator as to Hanover instruction. But I am getting a
"'\end_of_program' - unbalanced left parenthesis C:\Program Files\FXCM MetaTrader 4\experts\indicators\Momentum Email Alert HR.mq4 (114, 1)" error.

I am trying to figure out what this is but dont know much about programing, if some one could help it would be greatly appreciated

For some reason I cannot load the indicator itself, so I had to copy and paste into TXT.

Thanks

Peace

Cannot be bothered to load this up into MT4 but what sticks out is .........

if (MomBuffer[AlertCandle] > 100 && MomBuffer[AlertCandle+1] < 100) { //
...........

if (MomBuffer[AlertCandle] < -100 && MomBuffer[AlertCandle+1] >= -100 ) {


HTH

You couldn't load the indicator because it wasn't compiled.

And the errors are coming from exactly where futurespec showed you in red.

You have the left parenth at the start of the statements but you don't close either one.
No way I'll wreck this... It's a beer truck!

@Peacelover,

Since I helped to create this problem(!), I feel obliged to fix it.

Please try the attached (it compiles without errors). It's very close to the change that futurespec suggested.

Hanover,

This is only giving alerts on the way up buy does not send alerts on the way down.

Thanks for you help

Hanover,

Thanks for you help
From the file you originally posted, I got the impression that an up-cross was when the indy value went from below +100 to above +100, and a down-cross was when it went from above -100 to below -100.

However, upon attaching the indy I find that the value zigzags between 99 and 101, hence it will never reach a value of -100.

What I've done is modify the logic so that a down-cross is when the indy goes from above +100 to below +100.

I assume that's what you were originally seeking. Try the attached.
