Adding Alerts to an Elliott Wave Oscillator Signal Indicator

Summary

This document explains how to add notifications to an Elliott Wave Oscillator indicator that marks buy and sell signals. It describes configurable inputs for choosing the signal bar, enabling sound, email, or mobile push alerts, and limiting repeated notifications. The added functions check the indicator’s buy or sell buffer, select the corresponding bar, and include the symbol, timeframe, timestamp, and price information in each alert.

The method depends on calling each signal function from the indicator’s calculation routine and using the correct buffer names and empty-value convention. The document provides implementation details, but no trading performance evidence or evaluation of the underlying oscillator. It also does not discuss whether signals repaint, how to validate alerts in live conditions, or how transaction costs affect a strategy based on those signals.

Key ideas

• Alert functions can be added to an Elliott Wave Oscillator indicator’s buy and sell signal buffers.
• Inputs control the bar being checked and the sound, email, and push notification channels.
• The alert message can include the instrument, timeframe, timestamp, and price fields.
• The functions must be called from the indicator calculation routine with correctly configured buffers.
• The document explains alert plumbing but supplies no evidence that the signals are profitable.
