Hi Pete, many thanks for your support with all questions. I’m struggle creating alert for Aroon indicator in thinkorswim. I tried to create in thinkscript editor for alert when: 1/ Aroon down reach 100, alert sms to phone 2/ Aroon up reach 100, alert sms to phone. Can you help please?

Let's first make sure to explain to everyone there is nothing we can do with custom code in Thinkorswim that directly generates an sms/email alert. The only thing we can do is to create a true/false condition that the scan uses to return a list of stocks meeting our criteria. Or in the case of a Study Alert it can notify us when the individual ticker symbol it is assigned to satisfies the filter criteria. What does that mean? This means that in order to generate an sms/email notification every single piece of that process is contained within the platform application settings. There is nothing we can do to the code to facilitate any of this. So when you use the Condition Wizard to generate an alerty for Aroon "Up" crossing above 100 it produces the following code:
For those viewers who have never heard of the Condition Wizard.... wow, you are going to love this video: https://www.hahn-tech.com/thinkorswim-condition-wizard/ That's it. Done. There is nothing more you can do there. Now if you want that to generate an sms/email alert, well that is entirely up to you. Each user must access the application settings, go to the notifications section and activate a mobile phone number and/or email address. Everything begins there. After that, when setting up your Study Alert or creating a dynamic alert from a saved custom scan, all you have to do is check the appropriate boxes to tell the platform how and where to deliver your notifications that you have previously established through application settings.
