Inside Bar Alerts
- Indicators
- Snapdragon Systems Ltd
- Version: 1.0
- Activations: 5
This indicator marks Inside Bars (bars with a lower high and a higher low than the previous bar) on your chart. It will also send alerts when one forms, including via e-mail or push notification to your phone. It's ideal for when you want to be notified of an inside bar set-up but don't want to have to sit in front of your chart all day.
You can configure all the settings including:
- What symbol (if any) is plotted to highlight an inside bar
- Whether the symbol is plotted above the bar or below the bar
- How far beyond the bar it is plotted
- What alerts to receive out of pop-up desktop, e-mail and push notification to your phone
