Creating Alerts on TradingView


Server-side alerts are alerts that are monitored by TradingView’s servers, meaning you do not need to leave your computer running with the charting platform open in order for them to trigger. In this post I will sum up exactly how to create all types of script alerts on the TradingView platform including both 'Fixed' and 'ATR' stop alerts

TradingView Alert Actions


Notify on App only works if you first download the (free) TradingView app (Android or iOS). If you have the app installed and a trading alert is triggered then you will receive a push-notification straight to your mobile device.

Show Popup will display a window popup inside your TradingView chart window when an alert is triggered. The popup will display on every chart you have open.

Send Email sends you an email whenever an alert is triggered. You can specify the message that is sent so that you know which indicator triggered the email alert.

Play Sound plays an audio alert whenever a signal is triggered. You can select from 8 different sounds and you can choose how long the sound plays for. This is a fantastic tool for day-traders and I use it every day.

Send Email-to-SMS will send you a text message to your phone. In order to use this feature you must have a phone data carrier that allows email-to-SMS functionality.
