macd histogram with mail alert?

New comment
 
hey, can someone add an email alert to this indicator so that when it crosses lines it sends me and email?  ty
Files:
macd_histogramp1.01.mq4  15 kb
 

In the DisplayAlert() function:

void DisplayAlert(string message, int shift)
  {
   if(shift <= 2 && Time[shift] != lastAlertTime)
     {
       lastAlertTime = Time[shift];
       Alert(message, Symbol(), " , ", Period(), " minutes chart");
       SendMail(message, Symbol(), " , ", Period(), " minutes chart");
     
     }
  }


Also in Tools->Options:

 

thanks but its telling me

'SendMail' wrong parameters count

 

?

sharky23:

thanks but its telling me

'SendMail' wrong parameters count

 

? 

Sorry, should be

SendMail(Symbol()+" minutes chart",message);
 
Thank you the option is now available on th indicator..now i just need the comand for the alert of the MACD signal line with the MACD line for crossover alerts to the email -_-"
