Hi all
ND, if this is in the wrong place, please move it. Thanks.
I've attached an indicator that I've tried to add a sound and email alert to.
I'm not a coder, but I'm having a go.
Cut & paste only at the moment!
I've managed to get down to only one error:
'\end_of_program' - ending bracket '}' expected
But no matter what I do, it remains & I cannot 'compile'
Could someone correct it, & if possible, tell me where I'm going wrong.
ThanksHere you are, you might want to try the second one I attached also

Just make a separate indicator alert which call the signal ... I code alerts each day like this for my clients who don't have mq4 files. FerruFx
And how do you know when to display the signal without known the calculation?
Some example please?
Linuxuser, I know the question was for FerruFx, but as long as you have buffer values you can code an iCustom alert in a separate indicator.
example:
realMACDfast=iCustom=(NULL,0,realMACD,FastMA,SlowMA,Signal,0,0,i);
realMACDslow=iCustom=(NULL,0,realMACD,FastMA,SlowMA,Signal,1,0,i);
realMACDsignal=iCustom=(NULL,0,realMACD,FastMA,SlowMA,Signal,2,0,i);
As long as the indicator is showing buffer values it doesn't matter if its compiled. This is helpful when someone has a compiled indicator and has not been able to edit it themselves. In this example, buffer 1 is realMACD's SlowMA. Buffer 2 is FastMA, and Buffer3 is realMACD's SignalMA.
Edit: There are spaces in SlowMA var. These are not how I typed them, if someone attempts to apply this code for themselves, they will have to delete the spacings.
And how do you know when to display the signal without known the calculation? Some example please?
Codobro's answer come before mine. Thanks bro!
Linuxser, you need 3 things to set your iCustom() correctly:
1. The name of the indicator (don't need the mq4)
2. The right buffer(s): just open the DataWindow and find the one(s) needed (don't need the mq4)
3. The external inputs if any: just open the indicator's inputs parameters box (don't need the mq4)
You can with these 3 points above call the indicator for a separate indicator alert or even for an EA.
Believe me when I say that I code everyday EAs and alerts with only indicators ex4 files when clients don't have mq4 files.

well, why not, scientific poking (just grub the color) - always hated that thing with .ex

extern int cbars = 0;
SGMAR2 - optimised
Macd dot indicator + email alert
Can someone please add an email alert to the Macd dot indicator?
Also, is there a way to get the Demark Line indicator to produce a signal/alert as soon as the blue/red dot appears versus a couple of bars later when the arrow appears? TIA!![](https://c.mql5.com/forextsd/smiles/smile.png)
