How to make a string alert based on a enum?

[Fernando Jose Velasco Borea]

I'm learning MQL4 and I'm developing a simple script that tells you the TP and SL price when you set it on pips (If you set 10 pip TP it tells you where to put it)

I want to add an alert telling wether its a buy or a sell but it keeps giving me 0 or 1

The enum part its like this:

enum OperationType
      {
         Buy, // Buy
         Sell // Sell
      };
input OperationType Type = Buy;

And the alert is like this:

Alert("The trade type is ", Type);

//Also tried this

Alert("The trade type is " + Type);

//And this

Alert ("The trade type is " + string(Type);

But in all versions of the alert code it still throws 0 or 1. Any suggestions? (Please don't be too technical on the answer as I'm learning).

Best regards,

Fernando.

EnumToString()

EnumToString()

It would be something like this?

Alert("The trade type is " EnumToString(Type));
