imho The Alert() is overkill for a simple sound function; we need a
simple afl Sound() that works unconditionally under "all" conditions
and at "all" times, i.e. regardless of chart position, barsrequired,
state of several arguments, etc. Ideally it should have soundfile
buffering so that you don't miss a second sound triggered during the
same afl pass.
I emailed a suggestion to support for a simple Sound(). If you too
think this is useful please email your support for such a function.
Adding sounds to your RT/AT system is a natural progression and even
a requirement. Once you have sounds working you will never again work
without it: it is the only possible eyes-off connection you have with
your trading system.
Sounds are underutilized in AmiBroker simply because users are turned
off by complexity and problems; they give up and don't want to waste
too much time on it.
best regards,
herman.
