Multi TF Alert System
- Utilities
- Version: 6.0
Overview
Multi-TF Alert System is a professional monitoring dashboard for MetaTrader 5 that tracks up to ten symbols simultaneously across five timeframes: M15, M30, H1, H4, and Daily. For each combination, it calculates the highest and lowest prices over a configurable lookback period and tracks how close the current price is to these levels. When price reaches or approaches key levels, you receive instant notifications through sound alerts, popup messages, or push notifications to your mobile device.
How It Works
The dashboard uses a color-coded interface that shows which markets are at critical levels, which are approaching decision points, and which are in neutral territory. Distance percentages indicate exactly where price sits within each timeframe's range without manual calculation. The display updates every second with live market data and automatically sizes itself to your chart.
The alert system is non-intrusive. Once an alert triggers for a specific level, it won't repeat until a new candle forms, preventing notification spam while ensuring you don't miss genuine opportunities. Alerts reset daily, and you have full control over which notification types are active and for which timeframes.
Configuration
Choose which symbols to monitor from any combination of forex pairs, metals, indices, or cryptocurrencies. Enable or disable specific timeframes, adjust lookback periods from 10 to 60 candles per timeframe, and set proximity thresholds that determine when early warning signals trigger. Alert types include customizable sound files, popup alerts with full details, and push notifications via the MT5 mobile app. Dashboard dimensions and position are fully adjustable through input parameters.
Practical Use
Day traders benefit from M15, M30, and H1 monitoring with shorter lookback periods. Swing traders typically focus on H1, H4, and Daily with longer lookbacks. The proximity threshold should be adjusted based on volatility — tighter for major forex pairs, wider for cryptocurrencies. The system works as a scanning tool to identify which markets are at decision points, so you can perform detailed analysis on those specific charts.

Important Notice
This is a monitoring and alerting tool, not a trading system. It provides information about price proximity to recent highs and lows but makes no trading decisions and does not indicate direction. All trading decisions, risk management, and position sizing remain your responsibility. Past performance of monitored markets does not predict future results.
