Thanks Grover
I have no idea how to prioitize the alerts. I am newbe with afl, but
have a lot of experience with AIQ-EDS language.
I went to AB so I could run several alerts at the same time. In fact
I want at least three alerts to give me a fourth alert when all
three come true in one minute.
Working on a system so that on one minute, three Futures, ES, ER2
and YM which happen at the same time, such as pivots, MACD etc, may
indicate a Buy or Sell.
Any ideas how I can prioitize the alerts would be welcome. Will do a
search of AB messages.
I hope Thomaz will respond to this bug.

Hello Ray,
I have had similar experiences, more than one under a variety of
conditions.
The common "denominator" which causes the problem is when one
alert triggers
simultaneously with another. When that occurs it causes AB to
display the
error message which you quoted stating that you need double back
slashes
(even though you have double back slashes in your program), and
then the
program gets into a loop and continues to repeat the alert. The
workaround
which I got in a message from Hermann is to prioritize your alerts
so that
only one can fire at any one time.
Depending on your AFL skills, there have been a number of
interesting
messages about alert sound alternatives. You can search the AB
messages and
come up with some very good ideas to solve your problem.

Subject: [amibroker] Sound Problems AlertIF
Wondering if a bug exists in AB sound.
XP 2.4GH 800 mh buss 1 gb of ram. ver 4.70.5 with IB backfill
Looking at YM futures, one minute.
I have two AlertIF programs up, some times four, one where the
Cross
of 20ma and 50ma and another where the Signal and MACD cross.
both have identical alerts as below.
AlertIf( Buy, "Sound C:\\Program
Files\\AmiBroker\\Sounds\\gunshot.wav","Buy MA20-50",1);
AlertIf( Sell, "Sound C:\\Program
Files\\AmiBroker\\Sounds\\tada.wav","Sell MA50-20",2);
the other is
AlertIf( Buy, "Sound C:\\Program
Files\\AmiBroker\\Sounds\\gunshot.wav","Buy MACD",1);
AlertIf( Sell, "Sound C:\\Program
Files\\AmiBroker\\Sounds\\tada.wav","Sell MACD",2);
What happens is the gunshot comes through maybe every second,
continously. This only happens every few days. Normal most of the
time, maybe every 5 minutes. Something starts it and have to
delete
the two alerts, then will be Ok when I start them later.
This comes up at the bottom left, see quotation marks, of AB
during
the rapid firing of the gunshot. Says tada wave failed.
"SOUND C:\Program Files AmiBroker\Sounds\tada.wavfailed.
(Note: '\'
in the path must be replaced by '\\')"
Also the Alert Output shows the text as below.
Alert Output
Ticker l Date/Time l Text
YM ... 5/18/2005 11:33:00 Buy MA20-50
YM ... 5/18/2005 11:33:00 Sell MACD
YM ... 5/18/2005 11:33:00 Buy MA20-50
YM ... 5/18/2005 11:33:00 Sell MACD
YM ... 5/18/2005 11:33:00 Buy MA20-50
YM ... 5/18/2005 11:33:00 Sell MACD
YM ... 5/18/2005 11:33:00 Buy MA20-50
YM ... 5/18/2005 11:33:00 Sell MACD
YM ... 5/18/2005 11:33:00 Buy MA20-50
Does any body else have this problem?? I have the double
backslashes.
What am I doing wrong? Will send both programs if required.
