Sound on Range Bar Completion

[Doug Hayman]

Hi guys,

I have a strategy that makes use of Range Bars.  I would like to provide an audible alert every time a range bar completes.

Is there any way to achieve this (via Paintbar call or Other means)?

Thanks in advance.

Lemme see...

int PrevCandleNum = 0;
public void MainCalculation()
{
   if (CurrentCandle.candlenum != PrevCandleNum)
      TriggerAlert...

   PrevCandleNum = CurrentCandle.candlenum;
}

to add to Mike's reply - you add the above paintbar to a chart.  Enable the alert in Paintbar parameters and set the alert notification to play a sound. Set it to automatically clear after X seconds - I would do 2 or 3. That way it will clear so it will trigger again on next candle.

Excellent guys, thanks. I wasn’t aware of how to obtain the current candle state. That will work just fine.
