Notify MT5 Indicator - Full Description
Overview
The Notify MT5 Indicator is a powerful notification tool designed to alert traders about important changes in their trading account activity. It monitors various order events across all symbols and provides real-time notifications through multiple channels including on-screen pop-ups, and customizable sound alerts.
Key Features
Comprehensive Order Monitoring
- Order Closure Tracking: Notifies when market orders are closed
- Customizable Sound Alerts: Plays different sound files for different types of events
Flexible Configuration
- Each notification type can be individually enabled or disabled
- Sound notifications use customizable sound files from the MT5 Sounds folder
How It Works
The indicator continuously monitors all trading activity on your account by:
- Tracking the total count of open positions and pending orders
- Detecting changes in these counts
- Checking trade history to identify the exact nature of each change
- Sending appropriate notifications through the selected channels
Settings
- AlertonPC: Enable/disable on-screen pop-up alerts
- PlaySound: Enable/disable sound notifications
Installation Instructions
- Copy the Notify.mq5 file to your MT5's MQL5/Indicators folder
- If using custom sounds, place your .wav files in the MQL5/Sounds folder
- Restart MetaTrader 5 or refresh the Navigator window
- Drag the indicator onto any chart (the chart selection doesn't matter as it monitors account-wide activity)
Important Notes
- The indicator monitors ALL order activity across your entire account, not just the chart it's attached to
- Each notification includes details about the order such as symbol, lot size, price, and profit (for closed orders)
- Sound files must be in .wav format and located in the MT5 Sounds folder
- The indicator will automatically check for the existence of specified sound files during initialization
Use Cases
- Stay informed about your account activity when away from your trading station
- Receive immediate feedback when pending orders are triggered
- Get instant profit/loss notifications when positions are closed
- Monitor automated trading systems for new activity
- Keep track of order executions across multiple charts/symbols
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who manage multiple positions across different symbols or use automated trading systems, as it provides comprehensive monitoring of all account activity in one place.
