Sierra Chart Alerts to MT5 via Webhook (Alert Manager File Version)
Objective:
Create a Custom Study (ACSIL / C++) that monitors alerts from the Alert Manager file and forwards any valid alert directly to MT5 via an HTTP POST (Webhook) in JSON format.
Additional Note: The study should allow adding any modifications in the future and provide clear insights into the alert points in Sierra Chart.
1. Data Flow Diagram:
Alert Manager File -> Custom Study ACSIL -> HTTP POST Webhook -> MT5 EA
2. Functional Requirements:
a. Monitor Alerts
Periodically read the Alert Manager file (e.g., every second).
Capture any new alert not sent previously.
Avoid sending duplicate alerts from multiple charts.
b. Parse Alert
Extract from the alert text:
Symbol (e.g., EURUSD)
Timeframe (e.g., 5m)
ID (ID3 or ID2)
Presence of "true" for validity
Determine trade direction:
ID3 → "Buy"
ID2 → "Sell"
Validate alert:
If "true" exists → valid: true
If "true" does not exist → ignore alert
c. Build JSON
JSON
{
"symbol": "EURUSD",
"timeframe": "5m",
"direction": "Buy",
"valid": true
}
d. HTTP POST
Send JSON asynchronously to the MT5 EA Webhook.
Ensure Sierra Chart performance is not affected during the request.
e. MT5 EA (Listener)
Receive JSON payload.
Execute trade immediately if valid=true.
Ignore the alert if valid=false.
3. Example Workflow
Alert Manager Text:
EURUSD 5m ID3 true
ACSIL Study Processing Steps:
Parse → Symbol = "EURUSD", Timeframe = "5m"
Check "true" → valid = true
Check ID3 → direction = "Buy"
Send JSON to MT5 EA
MT5 EA: Receives JSON and executes a Buy trade on EURUSD immediately.
4. Key Features
Centralized alerts from Alert Manager file instead of individual charts.
Reduces duplicate alerts.
Better performance and faster processing.
Consistent JSON format, easy for EA to handle.
Ability to add future modifications or enhancements.
Provides clear alert points for monitoring in Sierra Chart.
5. Alert Text Format in Alert Manager
The alert text should contain all necessary information:
SYMBOL TIMEFRAME ID3 true
or
SYMBOL TIMEFRAME ID2 true
Examples:
EURUSD 5m ID3 true
XAUUSD 15m ID2 true
