IT_BigLotBlockAlert
BigLot Block Alert
-
The IT_BigLotAlert was intended to be a compliment to IT_BigLots but works quite well alone. It will cause an alert when a Time & Sales block (user defined size) occurs. The alert can be set for sound only, the Alert Window, or the Alert Window without sound. This indicator works well on a chart or in the Market Analyzer. Note that if using in the Market Analyzer you will need a different Market Analyzer window for each instrument.
Here is sample output from the Alerts Window. You can see the ability to have differents colors used in order to help distinguish between the Alerts of different instruments.
Above is an image of the settings available. Notice the ability to select different sounds for the Bid and Ask alerts.
5/19/10 - Added optional dot markers on the price panel to coincide with the block alerts.
New IT_BigLotBlockAlertV2 with text option
Change Log
-
4/13/15 - Overhauled the indicator so the block trades text is consistant and orderly and updated the sound file selectors.
3/13/14 - Added size adjuster for the text, a requested feature.
6/10/10 - Added a new requested feature. Now there is the option to print text representations of the block trades on the price panel. The NT7 version is also upgraded to V2.
9/2/10 - Updated both versions to include the Compact_Text mode, seen here.
6/30/11 - Added a text increment multiplier to the NT7 version of IT_BigLotBlockAlertV2 indicator because the text numbers were overlapping on Renko charts.
