MT4 Alarm invisible?

 

Hey guys,

is it possible to show the build in alarm via a horizontal line?

The alarms are all invisible..

okay - i have checked everything inside MT4 settings, but i couldn't find anything to make the alert visible.

Maybe there is a hack for this?

Don't use them. Write/find an indicator that places an Hline on the chart and issues an alert/sound when price crosses. Human can move the line.
 

Yes i have searched for something like that.

But my problem is that i really need the sms notification to my iphone mt4 app.

Do you know a specific alert indicator with horizontal lines that does support the notification option

in order to get the alarm on the iphone?

The notification is a simple addition,  1 or 2 lines of code.
 

Hey RaptorUK


yes, but the prob is that i'm not a coder - and i have not found any alert indicator with that additional function.
