[amibroker] Re: Alert email setting for GMAIL

["Chaitanya" <kcityg@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the picture Pankaj. That was helpful.

Mark: havent yet looked into the code you sent.

One more question, currently i am getting a ton of alerts as data is streaming (intraday). 

How do i make alertif send an alert only after the end of the current bar instead of during the interim (for reference, 1 am trading 5min bars mostly)?
