Trying to find the easiest way to do sound alerts when there is a new HOD or LOD for the current session. Not having luck so far, it must be so simple I am missing it... ?

Try this:

Add the Daily OHLC study, set the Reference Days back to 0, set Graph High and Low Historically to Yes, and put this on the Alerts tab:

=OR(C>SG2[-1],C<SG3[-1])

You can check Hide Study, if you don't want to see the lines.

@Big Mike

You also have a pre-configured study in SC website (scroll down to the bottom of the page, number 15 - New High New Low Alert.StdyCollct.):

I am using it and it works.
