In addition to price alerts, you can set trend line alerts on a chart. The kind of alert
is triggered when the chart crosses the trend line.
First, draw a trend line on your chart. Right-click on the line, and select 'Set Alert On Penetration'.
In the dialog, choose whether you want the alert to be triggered when the line is crossed
from below, from above, or from either direction. You can also select to trigger the alert as
soon as the line is crossed, or when the crossing candle is closed.
Click OK to set the alert. The alert you just set can be viewed and edited
in the Price Alerts window. The window shows regular Rate Alerts on the top and Chart Alerts
on the bottom. You can edit or remove a chart alert by right-clicking
on it in the Price Alerts window. You can also quickly find the chart in which
you set the alert. Right-click on the alert, and select Go To Chart.
The chart with the alert will open. When the chart crosses the trend line, you will receive
a pop-up notification. This concludes the tutorial on trend line
alerts.
