create alert " cross trendline up/down at xx"

[mnewton]

add option alert type " cross trendline up/down at xx" at 

point where we click on chart.

saves having to setup line with all options then clicking on alert 

and okaying which is a pain

[Jerry Medved]

you know you can set the default, right?

Also, you don't have to draw trendline then set it to alert. You can just draw alert trendline righta way. And if you set the defaults for the trendline alert, then you don't have to click anything else or setup anything else.

i have the default set but how do you draw an alert trendline

when i draw a line i have to draw with shift so it is horizontal

i then have to click on the alert !

How do I draw a horizontal alert line?

[Jerry Medved]

select Trendline Alert on the drawing tools

[mnewton]

price set on line on the popup as in line1.jpg

is there a way to show ( and change) the value for the alert line

in 2? 

[Jerry Medved]

it should be there. only time it is not is if the line is not perfectly horizontal. Please check

[Mike Medved]

Press SHIFT to as you draw or modify the line to make it horizontal.

 

[mnewton]

It looks like it's not straight. How do I straighten it?

Could you add the option to make the line horizontal

To the right of the show value on y axis. Would help thanks
