Add this at the end of your indicator

bool NewBar()

{

static datetime dt = 0;

if (dt != Time[0])

{

dt = Time[0]; Sleep(100); // wait for tick

return(true);

}

return(false);

}

and change SendMail to this if (NewBar()) SendMail .........

Elihayun,

I appreciate your kind help. For your information, i would be using this EA for 30mins and 1 hour chart.

I would like to get email alert when EMA3 crossover EMA34 and EMA3 crossover EMA89. I would not want any repeated alert. I know the repeated alerts was due to current bar moving up/down when price increases/decreases.

Thanks for the help again.

Will there be any implication if the ema crossup and then quick reverse crossdown ?

Will it affect the alert ? Jus curious... based on yr programming experience.

if this will be in the same bar ( I mean if the cross up will start u will get an alert. If the bar will not close and a reverse apears, u will not get another alert. U right then.

Did u compile my version?

I noticed that this is not an indicator, its EA. I put it in my demo account and I will see what will be

 

Yes, it is an EA. I did compile it and get lot of alerts.

I made some indication in the outputs to show it is a new compiled version.
