Price Alerts & Triggers

Guide to setting up real-time price monitoring, crossing rules, and interactive canvas notifications.

TradingView-Style Alert Dialog

Description: A modal popup allowing users to configure price alert thresholds, crossing conditions (Crossing, Crossing Up, Crossing Down, Greater Than, Less Than), expiration dates, and notification actions (App Popups, Sound Alerts).

Practical Uses

Setting customized price notifications to track market moves without staring at screen charts.

How to Draw / Use

Click the Alert bell icon in the top toolbar, double click scales, or press 'Alt + A' hotkey to open the creator modal.

Canvas Alert Dash Lines

Description: Renders active price alert lines dynamically across the chart viewport as orange dashed lines. Includes interactive right-aligned pill badges with a bell icon and targeted price text (e.g. 🔔 Crossing 65000.00).

Practical Uses

Visualizing pending price triggers directly relative to historical and live candles.

How to Draw / Use

Drawn automatically on alert creation. Drag alert line pills vertically on the scale coordinates to change alert price limits dynamically.

Real-Time Price Monitor Loop

Description: Runs a background loop checking new candle data feeds against active local storage alert conditions. Instantly triggers notification callbacks, play-audio actions, and app notifications when conditions are met.

Practical Uses

Tracking price ticks and executing alert events in real-time.

How to Draw / Use

Operates automatically in the background. Triggered events highlight lines red and display user-configured notification toasts.
