I was wondering if there was a way for this to send me an alert with the bell sound when one stock hits the reversal sign?

I think Ben mentioned in another post that the signal is delayed so it wouldn’t be much help. My opinion is I would not walk away from this indicator. You have to look at other signals, volume ... etc.
Look at the signals it gives on the hourly. Notice how the signal will fire for a but but a lot of times the hourly candles will continue to go down. That’s a big step in bravery. I would wait for another signal for confirm or at least wait a few candles to hope on. I won’t reiterate the “hope” line.
Bens hourly AMM and 5 minute Blue I believe is more reliable.

What you don’t see on the charts are all the buy and sell reversals that painted and then disappeared.
You really have to work on this indicator.

@mbfdo you have the script that your talking about Ben's amm and 5min blue? Or a description of it?thank you I appreciate it
 
What is the best one that you would recommend? I've also been looking for a good volume indicator that easily understood as to if its buyers and sellers that's winning with the volume

@Brettser16 You need to be a VIP member I believe to get those codes. It's a super small fee and so worth it. This is an actual strategy Ben posted in Warehouse (VIP members only) using these two indicators.
I would recommend you get a VIP pass and check out all the indis and thoroughly read the suggested strats with each one. There is even a strat for the Reversal Indi you like so much.
Just you know, be CAREFUL!
Volume, I think there are a ton of volume indi. Go to the mag glass at the top right and type in Volume, check search titles only.
 
@MBF Thank you for the positive comment about the AMM. Just to clarify for @Brettser16, so he/she doesn't go looking for a signup page. VIP is currently closed for now. It will be back once I'm ready to release version 2.0 of AMM.

Look forward to taking it for a spin!
 
@hurricane5 It's fairly simple to do it. Add the code as an indicator (but do not use it on your chart since it's intended to be used in the Scan tab). Once you have it added, switch over to the Scanner section.

Click on Add Study Filter > Study > type in the name of the indicator > and select upArrow or downArrow.

Hi @BenTen . I installed the scanner, and wonder what is the best time-frame to run it. 5 min, 15 min or 1 hr? Thanks.

@Azzy19 Add this to the end of the script.

Rich (BB code):
#Alerts
def bullish2 = signal > 0 and signal[1] <= 0;
plot upArrow = bullish2;
upArrow.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_UP);
upArrow.SetDefaultColor(CreateColor(145, 210, 144));
def bearish2 = signal < 0 and signal[1] >= 0;
plot downArrow = bearish2;
downArrow.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_DOWN);
downArrow.SetDefaultColor(CreateColor(255, 15, 10));
Alert(downArrow, " ", Alert.Bar, Sound.Chimes);
Alert(upArrow, " ", Alert.Bar, Sound.Bell);
Is this for the scanner or the study? Thank you BT

Never mind, been reading too much and starting to lose it. I see it's for the scanner. Thank you.
