Late last year, I surveyed Slopers to see what they wanted most on the site. The results were extremely helpful, and far and away the most popular request was to create chart-based alerts in SlopeCharts. I am delighted to report we have made our first baby step in that direction, and it is available to you right now.
Our first chart object that will use this feature is the simplest one, which is the horizontal line. This line is crucial for, naturally, price breaks above a certain level (bullish) or below a certain level (bearish).
Using it could not be simpler. When you right-click on a horizontal line, you will see a new choice called Create Chart Alert:
This feeds the SlopeAlerts system with (1) the symbol and (2) the price level. At that point, all you need to do is set the condition.
This is a big time-saver, and it marries the charting with the alert system in a seamlessly visual way. You can expect us to be adding more drawn objects to this exciting new element of the site. Enjoy!
