This is part 1 of the series, so I will write about some of the basic hotkeys scripts and their use.
No more alert hotkeys with advanced hotkeys 😓
I reached DAS support and they said there is nothing to do about that, appart from unchecking advanced hotkey.
If anyone has a workaround, please share.
you just need to name your chart window like MY1MIN then use the FOCUSWINDOW function and they work.
FOCUSWINDOW MY1MIN;
Alertname="PriceReached";AlertType="LastPrice";AlertOperator="<=";AddAlert
Brilliant it works !
Thanks a lot
to be honest the syntax has changed meanwhile so i need to edit the hotkey but yes that is the way it used to work.
So, just to clarify, once you change the settings described above, you should go to 'Setup', 'Hotkey/Script', 'Hotkey'. Then at the bottom select 'Add New Item'. Then if I want to add an alert on the chart I would enter a name then the script
Alertname=PriceReached;AlertType=LastPricelAlertOperator=”<=”;AddAlert
and assign the Hotkey?
Do I then just click on the chart and press the hotkey to trigger the alert?
I know it's a super basic question but I feel like I'm fumbling my way through this.
