Once again, I want to thank Roonius for showing how to do this in the Ninjatrader forums.
This indicator makes a spoken announcement whenever the price series it shares a window with crosses above or below any of the qualifying trend lines that you add to that panel using the drawing tool.
This is a beta indicator. Beware, it prints text to the output window and leaves phantom lines on the chart when you drag the trend lines around. Those are expected behaviors.
To qualify, a line must be an Extended Line, and the name of the TAG of the Trend Line must begin with the words, Trend Line . The Tag name is assigned on the Data tab of the Extended Line properties.
Then, after those words, add text that will tell you what chart the trend line is on, and which line it is. This should be something that is meaningful to YOU.The Tag can include spaces and commas.
For example, on my chart of the NYSE advancing minus declining issues, I use the string A, D, D, in the tag to get the robot to pronounce the three letters clearly.
Examples of descriptive tags for qualifying trend or level lines would be:
Trend Line YM 150 tick, bottom of rising trend channel
Trend Line 30 second A,D,D, rising support line
Trend Line 1 minute C,L, resistance level 175 dollars per barrel
Zondor, may little off topic but I would like to know if is possible change the execution talk, like adding 10 lots buy filled, 10 lots sell filled, 10 lots buy cancel......etc.
Luke, I think the answer is YES. When an execution occurs it can certainly be detected programatically. As long as a triggering condition can be detected, an appropriate voice message can be triggered. I just haven't addressed this yet.
I think that the voice messages for executions might have to come from strategies rather than indicators.
