Help about an alert

[FxNewbie]

My problem is the pop-up alert happens one time only and will not pop-up an alert for the next cross. Can anyone point out to me how I can solve this problem?

 

The TimeCurrent()-PrevAlertTime being > Period()*60 is to prevent multiple alerts when the signal is true. It certainly does stop multiple alerts but I need to get fresh alerts popping up.

 

 

I have these declared variables:

extern bool Alert_Cross = true;

datetime PrevAlertTime=0;

 

and this is the code for the alert

if (Alert_Cross == true)

{

if((Cross_Status == 1) && ((TimeCurrent() - PrevAlertTime) > Period()*60))

{

Alert("LONG Cross");

PrevAlertTime=TimeCurrent();

}

else if((Cross_Status == -1) && ((TimeCurrent() - PrevAlertTime) > Period()*60))

{

Alert("SHORT Cross");

PrevAlertTime=TimeCurrent();

}

}
