Hi Guys,

I found this piece of code from another indicator and I dont know if this may help.

Thanks again for taking the time to read this.

extern bool Alerts.OnCurrent = false;

if (Alerts.OnCurrent)
int whichBar=0;
else whichBar=1;
if (trend[whichBar]!=trend[whichBar+1])
if (trend[whichBar]==1) doAlert("Check for Short"+" "+ Period()/mes+hr);
else doAlert("Check for Long"+ " "+ Period()/mes+hr);
}
return(0);
}
