Roy,
Good point and one that I should have included.
Appreciate it!

It is only good in explorations when the Explorer is forced to scan
sufficient data. The default additional amount of data loaded for
the "Load Minimum Records" setting (about 30% extra as I recall)
might be insufficient to extend an alert for the required number of
periods. Unlike the Periods parameter for Ref() the Periods parameter
for Alert() does NOT force the Explorer to load any additional
history. In this respect Alert() behaves in much the same way
as "Nth" parameter functions such as ValueWhen().

function to perform your task. Have you tried plotting your code as
an indicator before trying to make it work in the Explorer? The
visual nature of indicators generally makes them easier to
troubleshoot when all is not as it should be. Think of an exploration
column as being the same as indicator except for three attributes.
These are, 1 - not "visual", 2 - only returns a value for the last
bar scanned (this usually equates to the last bar of a chart), and 3 -
usually loads much less data than for a chart.
