Hi Buddies, please bear with me as I am new to use MS and appreciate if you guys would provide help in this case.  In short, I want to write a formula to find out which candlestick with larger range of open till close than yesterday bar.  Its mainly to compare the open till close range for today and yesterday bar only, is it easy to make it done?  Meanwhile, is there any similar function from MS to send out mail alert if the candlestick fulfill the predefined conditions?  thanks again all!

Hello, You would essentially take the absolute value of the difference between the Open and Close and compare to yesterday of the same. Abs(O-C) > Ref(Abs(O-C),-1) Email Alerting is possible in the Realtime version via the Expert Advisor. The ability to email has also existed in End-of-Day since version 12 (primarily due to sharing the same codebase as the Realtime version) but is not really useful since the data has to be manually refreshed in the chart in order to trigger an Expert alert. I would have to know which version and type of MetaStock you are using to give a more detailed answer on email alerts.
