Hi All,

I was wondering if there was a simple way to trigger an ATM strategy automatically when a manually draw trendline is hit, i.e. F4 Extended line is touched, broken or within a few ticks and the ATM triggers. I googled around and saw a few asking the same thing but haven't really seen an answer. I appreciate any advice.

Aaaaand, I figured it out almost immediately after posting this. It's done through alerts > actions

It can also be done programmatically in a strategy. I've done that.

Can you post the link you found with the steps on how to do it, please?

Thanks in advance!

Sorry for the late response. I just ended up reading through the Alerts sections in the help guide. It’s all in there. The thing I was missing was checking “enabled” after creating the alert. I think it was defaulting to unchecked which I wasn’t catching.
