The amount of alerts generated can be overwhelming, and it is recommended that you use filters to streamline your alerts. To help you get started faster, we've come up with a few examples.
Everyone has their own trading criteria, but here are some of the common use cases.
If you would like to suggest a use case, please email to [email protected]
For simplicity's sake, these examples are on stocks going up.
If you're looking to trade the short side, just flip ChgOp to negative.
If you want to view both highs and lows, leave ChgOp empty.

Once you have launched the examples, you can go to Filters and tweak the values on your own.
