Please kindly help me with Adding Alert to Indicator

[pkoolc1]

Your OnCalculate uses capitalized "Time" for a time timeseries, so your alert checks should also use "Time" instead of "time".

Thank you so much, sorted.
Please can you help..... after some time the indicator lines are distorted or upon initializing MT5, I have to switch between timeframes to get it back to normal.

Hello,
I did follow the guide :
https://www.earnforex.com/guides/how-to-add-alerts-to-metatrader-indicators/
But it doesn't work very well...
First, if I change the code of my indicator, save, compile, i'm not sure it takes effect in real time on all my windows of forex pairs opened in MT4 plateform on my computer...
Second, even if I delete my custom indicator (the old) and add it again (the new) it doesn't alert any better... but when I change the time frame in MT4 on a symbol then I have a lots of alerts and push on my phone but all seems wrong... the time is often wrong and somes are missing... and when I wait after for a new alert often it doen't work...
First of all, why when I change the timeframe on my computer I have some push alerts on my phone and not when the condition happens at a given time?
Thanks you

@cedlere If you attach your modified .mq4 file here, we could have a look at it and find possible errors.

All instances of Time[rates_total - 1] should be replaced with Time[0] as the native Time array is set as series by default in MT4.

Also, both instances of this: ExtRSIBuffer[TriggerCandle + 1] should be this: ExtRSIBuffer[rates_total - 2 - TriggerCandle].

Ok, thank you, I test it monday and tell you inform, no Forex the weekend...

It seems to work, thanks you very much

Sorry, I did ask myself... if I change the 30-70 levels of the input variables... so if I change the input variables I will don't need to change my code... but it is a #property, and in my case : indicator_level1 and indicator_level2 instead of of 30 and 70 levels... I don't really know again about the #property in the code... so how to do?

You need to use input parameters for your 30 and 70 checks in the alerts. Then you will be able to change them via the input parameters window of the indicators.

Use iTime() function instead.

Hello,
I have create a variable

datetime time  = iTime(Symbol(), Period(), 0);

at the beginning of OnCalculate function and then for the test :

if (((TriggerCandle > 0) && (time > LastAlertTime)) || (TriggerCandle == 0))

but it gives false alerts...

False alerts or more than one alert on the same event?
Can you attach the current code?
Also, do you run it with default parameters?

Hello, in fact I did close MT5 and lauch it again and it give me an alert which happens 30 hours in the past, is it normal?
Also, when I apply my indicator I just change my RSI period.

I've changed your timeframe condition to allow it to run on M1 and tested it for some time on an M1 chart and it worked just fine. Alerts sounded on a new bar after RSI went either above 70 or below 30.

Effectively it seems to works, thanks you, have a good day.
