Hi all,
I am using this very simple SMA-Crossover indicator that i downloaded
from this side. Is it possible to get an alarm (pop up screen) with currency
pair show in the popup ? I downloaded many other cross over indicators with alarm,
but the arrow/signals were way of. This one give me what i want, and draws arrows on exact
place to be

| Allows you to enter two sma periods and it will then show you at |
| Which point they crossed over. It is more usful on the shorter |
| periods that get obscured by the bars / candlesticks and when |
| the zoom level is out. Also allows you then to remove the emas |
| from the chart. (smas are initially set at 9 and 18) |

You can use any existing ma cross indicator with alerts instead (just set the ma mode to SMA - 0), like, for example, this one : https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/general
