Hi there This is a Fantastic indicator,I have used this but there are some error as follows :- 1). Alert window says “uptrend” while in actually there is a “downtrend crossover “. 2). If I choose “NO LINE” in “FAST MA LINE STYLE” it removes the “slow MA” and vice versa.
Thanks Uday Sharma

This is a great indicator once again, I just love it. It’s so helpful, specially to traders who are trading on multiple screens, on many open charts simultaneously, scalping several instruments on small timeframes. Thank you for developing stuff like this one Apprentice. I’m taking this opportunity to thank you so much for all your work so far (contributing with hundreds of indicators, strategies, signals, etc). You have helped me (and so many others I’m sure) immensely over the last several years to become a better trader.

I would like to help even more, unfortunately I have limited time to my disposal.

can you add the moving averages from the Moving Average Indicator: 20 in 1 - viewtopic.php?f=17&t=2430&hilit=Moving+Average+Indicator%3A+20+in+1+Moving+Average+Indicator
This would be a great help
Thanks,

Two Averages Cross Alert Added.
Paul W · Fri Dec 27, 2013 12:24 pm
Thank you for your work
but I was hoping you could add the various other moving average types from the 20 in 1 indicator into the Two MA Cross Alert
specifically, I was hoping you could add HMA - Hull Moving Average by Alan Hull:
HMA - Hull Moving Average by Alan Hull HMA[i]=LWMA(i,len,(2*LWMA(i,N/2,Price)-LWMA(i,N,Price))), where len=Sqrt(N), LWMA(i,N,Price) - Linear Weighted Moving Average
Again, thank you for your efforts
Apprentice · Fri Dec 27, 2013 3:49 pm
In order to Audio/Email alerts could work, install and activate Alert Signal.
U have to have one Active (Shown on Chart) Alert Signal per Currency Pair.
Paul W · Fri Dec 27, 2013 3:53 pm
my mistake - loaded wrong update
tested, and the indicator works well - including sound alert
thanks

Paul W · Thu Jan 16, 2014 8:43 pm
is it possible to enhance the fast and slow MA periods to support/include separate time periods, e.g. fast MA (5min) and slow MA (15 min) ?
I suspect it may not with how the indicator is currently structured
Thanks
Apprentice · Fri Jan 17, 2014 12:48 pm
Although, the other (higher) time frame is not a playground for this indicator, try to use MA Cross Signals or Strategys u can try to select a different price source for this indicator.

Coondawg71 · Sun Feb 16, 2014 11:28 am

SQW_MA Added.
SenseClash · Sat Sep 27, 2014 3:10 pm
Would it be possible to modify this so that I can choose to be alerted only on certain types of crosses? If I determine through other means that a currency is in an uptrend, I’d like to be notified only when there is an upward crossover. Likewise, when a currency is in a downtrend, I’d like notification only when there is a downward crossunder. Could these options be added?
Apprentice · Tue Sep 30, 2014 2:23 am
Please Try Updated Version of Two Averages Cross Alert.lua
SenseClash · Tue Sep 30, 2014 8:50 pm
I uploaded the “Two MA Cross Alert” on page one of this thread. I applied it to a some charts with fast EMAs on the 1-minute timeframe. I added the _Alert.lua to the chart to make sure I could get an email. No signals were sent to my phone. My phone does work for alerts–I’ve gotten them in the past. Attached are a chart and my settings.
Apprentice · Sat Oct 04, 2014 2:27 am
Set “Show MA Alers” to Yes.
U should have email alerts. If not, will investigate this after market re-opens.
gfozmo · Fri Dec 05, 2014 11:12 am
I also have the same problem. The emails and sound notifications no longer work. It was all working fine and then one day just stopped. On other indicators I use with alerts, the email and sound notification works fine. I tried removing from computer and re-installing. I downloaded both “Two Averages Cross Alert” and “Two MA Cross Alert” and also re-installed Alerts.Lua. Also tried a clean install on a different computer, still didn’t work. The popup works as does the crossover indicator on the chart.
gfozmo · Fri Dec 05, 2014 12:56 pm
Ignore that last post. I got it figured out. When I rolled back to a previous saved layout it all worked. Sorry and thanks

Can you please add DEVIATION SCALED MOVING AVERAGE to this indicator
Thank you in advance, NV
steveped · Wed Aug 15, 2018 4:25 am
Hi Apprentice, Any chance to have a different price source for the indicator? I would like to have as source another indicator (ie RSI or Stochastic, etc…). Thanks
Apprentice · Wed Aug 15, 2018 6:14 am
Have you tried tick version, the Tick Two Averages Cross Alert?

steveped · Tue Oct 22, 2019 9:14 am
That’s ok. I noticed that if I apply this indicator on another indicator the price shown is the indicator’s level. Is is possible to see the underline instrument price instead? Or maybe decide what’s the info to be shown between indicator’s level and instrument price. Thanks.
Apprentice · Thu Oct 24, 2019 5:39 am
I don’t understand what he is talking about. You are choosing the source yourself in the dialog. I don’t see any points to select one source and don’t use it. And FXTS2 doesn’t provide information on what indicator based on what.
Can you provide more information, example?
steveped · Thu Oct 24, 2019 7:34 am
Sure. I apply this indicator to another (ie Regularized Momentum). When I receive the alert via email, the number shown is the level of the indicator. I would like to receive the price of the underline instrument instead (ie GER30).
Apprentice · Mon Oct 28, 2019 5:27 am
Impossible to implement. Indicators can’t get the source of their source. We can only hardcode it. It will not work on indicator views properly.

I tried the indicator with shift, it works well if you apply shift to both MAs, if you apply only shift to the first one, the lines do not show up.
