Bruce:

I often miss buy & sell signals that I have setup in columns. Can I display the date the condition triggered, OR would the better way to approach it be to alter the condition formula to ask if the condition was met within the last couple of trading days, or to just rely on alerts?  Thanks, Fred

One option is to display the condition prominently on the chart when the condition occurs. A tall red horizontal bar on the chart is hard to miss

Hope this helps

It is not possible to display the date the condition first returned true.

When you are creating a WatchList Column, there should be an option to check for the formula being true within x number of bars without altering the formula itself (you might have to create a Condition Set for the WatchList Column for this option to be visible).
