folks, had a quick question. Is there a way to generate a alert in tradestation..when a specific level or condition generated on different charts. For ex:- a Level when reached on a chart and another level when reached on a different chart....generates a signal on the screen?

thnx

You could probably do it by using Global Variables or All Data Everywhere features. BUT, using those things usually ential an advanced coding project - certainly not for everyone.

What I would do is have one chart with 2 datastreams, one for each of the instruments you are tracking. Then, you could write a custom indicator referencing both of those datastreams.

Something like:

Condition1 = close of data1> XXXX and Close of Data2> YYYY ;

if Condition1 then

Alert( "" ) ;

Hi many thanks. Yes realized will take some complicated tracking & coding with use of ADE since am trying to match 4-5 conditions. Well will get to it later...since am not versatile with programing. Thanks for the inputs.
