Hi,
Four hours later and think I understand this a little better.
This applies for Indicator Alertif, with Alertif placed in a chart with
data coming in.
Alertif(Buy, "", "", 1, 1+2, Lookback =1); // returns the first signal
in one bar back.
Alertif(Buy, "", "", 1, 1+2, Lookback = 10); // only returns the first
signal in the last 10 bars back.
Alertif(Buy, "", "", 1, 1+2, Lookback = 0); // Actually gives me a
signal inside the currently open 5 min bar with data coming in.
Alertif(Buy, "", "",1, 1 + 2 ) ; // with no Lookback set, I get a
signal only for the last (already closed bar).
Therefore this defaults to a value of 1.
My confusion was that in AA settings N bars back, hitting Scan would
output all signals in the Results window.
This is not the same as the lookback field in the Alertif statement, as
far as I can make out.
See attached for those of us who can get attachments.

Hi
If I do not set a value in the last parameter of
Alertif( , Lookback = 1);
what does this default to?
