Re :Audio Alert on Macd Crossings
Basically what i needed is a audio alert output whereby a sell or buy signal triggers in the Macd .The codes that i have devised is not really making any sound upon MACD crossings ..Please advise me further as to how i can achieve my goal here .Is there anything else that i should do to make it work ?
 
Did yoy see Sound Alerts in Indicators ?
 
Yes but i cant solve this, can you help as why the aler not working.
Thanks for your kind attention
