Sound Files
MZpack indicators use WAV sound files to play audible alerts when configured thresholds are crossed. Alerts appear in the NinjaTrader Alert Log window.
Sound File Location
All alert sound files are stored in:
C:\Program Files\NinjaTrader 8\sounds\
The MZpack installer places the following files in this folder automatically.
