let me rephrase and i do not mean this in a negative way..i cannot believe that omega easylanguage allows you to set a flag depending on a indicator criteria to alert you of the position and then not give you the capability to turn the alert off until it becomes true again...ie..on a 5 min chart..a 20/50 bma crossover..20 crosses 50 upward...alert goes of...then turn alert to false..next bar 20 is still above 50...no alert...next bar...the same..and so and so on until 20 crosses below 50 and reverses again...then crosses...new alert....maybe i worded this incorrectly the first time i wrote on the matter....apparently the alert is set to false when the code on an indicator begins its execution and on every bar checks to see "IF" the condition is true...so on most bars the condition will be false and the alert never goes off...so every bar the indicator go through the EL code and checks all the IF statements...so if an IF statements becomes true then the alert flag is set to true to allow to branch in the code...but you would think you would be able to turn the alert flag back to false...and that's all I want to do
