Last few days I have been testing bollinger band contraction break out. I find trading during brake out after long contraction is low risk high reward. Some times you get wip saw I prefer take only 2 trades one trade each direction if it don't work within 2 trades stay out till next setup.

Problem I have is I cant site front of the PC for long time to see the contraction I am using "Bandwidth Indicator.mq4" to see the contraction with combination of bollinger band indicator. I would like if some one can set email alert when reach user set level.

Anyone can help me to code to receive email on to attached indicator?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Please try the attached indicator:
--- Download the .mq4 and .ex4 files to your ..../experts/indicators folder.
--- Download the .mqh files to your ..../experts/include folder.

The do-it-yourself alert builder kit was used to create the necessary additions to the code.

Set the AlertTriggerValue to the bandwidth level that you wish to trigger the alert. The other alert parameters are explained in the 'OPERATIONAL NOTES' section in post #1.

David

Thanks for taking time to add the email option Hanover.

I tested the indicator email option works great. I would like to request for a change on the alert level. Currently I receive an alert when brake above the level, for example if I set to alert 0.5 level I receive alert when band width expand over 0.5 I would like to receive alert when band width contract below 0.5 level.

I want to use the indicator to email when market consolidation so to be ready to catch the big move when it brake out of bollinger band.

I have attached a image what I am looking for.

Try the attached. You can set both levels to 0.5 if you wish.

I must get back to some real work now. I'm not employed by Forex Factory.
