How do I set an alert on my phone or tablet?

You may set price alerts, trade alerts and margin alerts with trigger notifications sent to your email address, or sent as a text message using E-mail to SMS. This can be done with either an Android or an iOS device.

To set an alert on your mobile device:

  1. Tap the Account menu icon (head and shoulders) in the top left of the app.
  2. Tap Alerts and then tap Create Alert. 
  3. Name the alert, set conditions (Price, Trade, Margin Cushion), and define other parameters as needed. 
  4. Specify delivery as needed and tap Done to save the alert.

You can delete the alert by tapping it and then tapping Delete.
