Chart Set Alarms    Video Tutorial
 

The Chart Set Alarms are shown below the Portfolio Summary. Here you can see a high alarm ahs been triggered for the stock ILA.

To alert you that the closing price has broken the alarm, a warning will show up in the Chart Set Alarms box. In this example, ILA Energy is showing a green high alarm (HA) warning, indicating that the price has broken through a price barrier. A stock will appear in this section ONLY when a high or low warning alarm has been triggered. The alarm will stay in this box until you remove the alarm, trade the stock or the price falls below the alarm price. If no alarms have been triggered today, this box will not appear.


During your trading you will set high and low warning alarms on stocks in your watchlist that you are yet to buy or short sell. A high alarm is useful when you want a stock to rise above a certain price before considering buying it. High and Low alarms can only be set in the chart.

To set a high alarm, open a chart of the stock.

Tick the high box under the Alarms heading. Click on the chart where you want to set the alarm. When you are happy, click on save. You can see the alarm here is set at 4.347. For this chart, this is not a realistic value. It has been set for demonstration purposes only.
