Trendline Alert

[atrader101]

Is it possible to create an alert when a trendline is breached, in the same way the pricealert operates?

Thanks.

atrader101, unfortunately this is not supported.

With NinjaTrader 7 you could custom code this, as trendline values and tagID's would become accessible via code - http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/NT7/NinjaTrader7.html

Could you please elaborate on this. How can one get the "value" of a line? You mean calculate the angle based on start/end/etc and figure out if price would be crossing the line?

When I had such a code written earlier, I had problems getting a correct calculation when the line crossed gaps in periods as is the case for example with futures and weekends.

You can use the ILine interface and access those methods / properties - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/iline.htm, this would include start / end Y points.
