ForexTrendisimoHT indicator - need email alert pls

Hi Guys,

I need some help adding an email alert to this indicator plssssss.


The requirement is, ff all 3 rows of boxes in a column are the same colour (blue (bullish) or red (bearish - refer to screen shot) the indicator should send an email alert.

Spending too many hours in front of the screen :-)


Thanks guys & Merry XMAS !!!!!

add the mailsend function in your code when it reaches the condition.
but don't forget to configure your mail address in the options of your MetaTrader platform.

Hi,
The ex4 file cannot be altered you will need to supply the mq4 file

Thanks for the quick reply guys.

Good point CJA. Unfortunately I don't have access to the mq4 version of the indicator.


Has anyone come across the mq4 version of the ForexTrendisimoHT indicator?

Got your message. I am sorry, but I’m no longer accepting any programming or troubleshooting requests.

Anyway, looks like you're already in very capable hands here. cja is one of the best around.

Has anyone coded the email alert functionality as requested?
looking at the screenshot, the indicator uses 6 buffers these are read using the icustom command.
So even without the mq4 source code file you can implement the email alert functionality with an additional custom indicator that reads the buffers.

Good idea Joss, the idea made me curious as I remember in the past having done something similar, I do remember it took a bit of fiddling around to work out the buffers and in this case 8 buffers are used for the indicator but it appears only 6 are used for the signals. Anyway here is the result untested as I really need a live feed to test it properly. When loaded onto a chart comments show in the top left of the chart. I have coded in a full set of Alerts so just use the Alerts required.

IMPORTANT : The ForexTrendisimoHT indicator must be in your indicator folder for the ForexTrendisimoHT alerts indicator to work however the ForexTrendisimoHT indicator does not need to be loaded onto a chart.

NOTE : No guarantees given as to how well this will work or if it will work.

Sorry people just noticed I had not named one of the comments correctly I had Alerts ON/OFF instead of Alerts Message ON/OFF.

Guys,

Thanks for your input on this. You are all so very helpful !


CJA,

Your a machine mate - appreciate your efforts . I'll give the ForexTrendisimoHT alert.ex4 a whirl & see how it goes when the market opens tomorrow.

Cheers !!!!!

Hi CJA,

I tested the indicator. Its all working !!!

Is it possible we can modify it to send a email alert on the candle close? I'm getting a couple alerts every hour :-).

IMPORTANT : The indicator posted above on post #7 has a code fault and can give false signals in some circumstances please re-download the updated version on this post.

I have re posted the Alert indicator after checking on a live feed, I have updated the code in a couple of areas plus added the ability to select 2 or 3 bars for the Alert as in some circumstances you might want to Alert for only 2 bars.

I have also noticed that the indicator repaints to some degree which can make Alerts a little unreliable especially on lower time frames.

The candle Close is already there just set the "Alerts ON Current" to false.

Love your work CJA !!

I'll give it a whirl & I'll let you know how it goes :-)

Hi CJA,

I've been testing the indicator - works like a charm !



Appreciate your efforts !!!
