General Software Discussion / Re: Fractal Trading Indicator

« on: November 02, 2011, 04:28 PM »

Hello,

You are right that the code has to be placed in the right spot. I searched through the complete code file, but did not find any "alert" line. I have also attached the complete code file, syntax highlighted.

Please note that the code in Line 31 has been commented out because it gives sound on each tick.  Codes from line 106 are auto generated by Ninja system. I have just added them here for completeness.


Thanks

The code is pasted below with the ' Using ' directives'. I have highlighted in RED the Play sound line code for easy reading.

The sound comes on each tick not on alert triangle. It is required only when the alert conditions are met.

Thanks for your quick reply.

I added the code lines. These are highlighted on the attached screenshot.

No sound.

The sound file used by me is good file because I can hear it when clicked directly.

Any help will be much appreciated.

My apologies. I had no intention of making you to read through so many codes of line.

Here are some details as I could assemble in few minutes.
The indicator script is designed to run on Ninja Trader ver 7. (www.ninjatrader.com). Once this script is run, it provides visual signals to buy or sell in market. Please see attached screen shot #01. You will find big red and green triangles there. I wanted to have audio alerts also along with these visual signs. So I added few lines of code reading from the help file of the software. These are shown on attached Screen shot #2 in green. They are showing in green because these did not work as required and they were commented out by me. When these lines were added, the audio alert happened on each tick and not when the visual triangle appeared on the screen. Please also note that there is a companion sub code file associated with this which is included in the zip file (also attached).IT contains all of code lines.

I am willing to show you live working on shared live screen sharing. I am in Toronto, Canada.

Thanks

I have a "fractal indicator script" which provides Buy or Sell signals on Ninja Trader Platform. It shows visual arrows but does not give any audio alert. I want audio alerts when the visual arrows appear on the screen.

I have attached the script written in C#. I am not a programmer. I will much appreciate if some one can help.

Thanks
