    This is the formula I'm using for my buy alert in StrategyDesk.

    (ExpMovingAverage[EMA,Close,16,0,15] > ExpMovingAverage[EMA,Close,34,0,15] AND ExpMovingAverage[EMA,Close,16,0,15,1] <= ExpMovingAverage[EMA,Close,34,0,15,1])

    Is this what you have? Thanks

    Yes, that's what I use.

    I talked to Strategy Desk support and they said that formula will trigger during the 15 minute candle, not at the close of it.  They said the only way to do it is have it trigger on the open of the next candle if ema is still crossed which is likely. Here's what they told me to change to get that but I haven't confirmed yet.  call them at 800-228-8056 to get is straight from the experts....  they told me to add ,1 to the first line and change the second line to ,2 from ,1

    (ExpMovingAverage[EMA,Close,16,0,15,1] > ExpMovingAverage[EMA,Close,34,0,15,1] AND ExpMovingAverage[EMA,Close,16,0,15,2] <= ExpMovingAverage[EMA,Close,34,0,15,2])

    Thanks for the help!  I'll
