Disliked{quote} thanks ps - is anyone else not able to get the custom sound file alert to work or is it just me being stupid? I save a custom sound file as a wav file. Save it to the 'sounds' file of my metatrader. Set 'sound' to 'true' in the inputs, and put that file name into the 'filename' field. but no sounds seems to play?Ignored
If you want your custom sound to play on Alert(), you need to set that sound file as default for Event > Alert in MT4.
(Tools > Options)
Also, if you will have both PopUp Alert and Sound Alert true, you may not hear anything.
The two sounds can cancel out each other.
.ex4/.ex5 files can't be fixed or modified / I'm not a coder!
