mlsignups Posted June 28, 2023 Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) Hi guys - I tend to set a number of alerts on stocks (breakout levels, pullback levels, stop levels) and over time as I focus on different stocks they tend to pile up. If I have the alert editor open I'd love to be able to go down the list and when I click on an alert have it change the open charts (or those attached to the active window or a color) to that symbol so I can see if I want/need the alert any longer. Bonus if it could somehow highlight which alert I'm on if there are more than one. AM I able to do that in some way now? If not, is that something you'd consider adding to help manage a longer list of alerts? Edited June 28, 2023 by mlsignups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted June 28, 2023 Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 Hmmm could do Symbol Linking,but to me The logical flow would be to click on a chart order symbol in a portfolio and have the alert editor change to show the alerts for that symbol, not vice versa. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlsignups Posted June 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 that is good too but doesn't solve the same issue I'm looking to solve. i may have, say, 100 items on a watch list and put alerts on and the next day remove 20 of the symbols from the watchlist and add 20 different ones. so after a few weeks i may have 100 or more alerts that i don't care about any longer. i could just go through the alert editor list and delete those that are no longer on the watchlist and 75% of the time i remember IF the ticker/symbol still is on the watchlist but other times I don't remember so i have to call that chart up to see if it's still a relevant alert. Another way that would help me would be something like your orphan alerts. Allow a way to filter based on when an alert was created; for instance, filter to show all alerts created (or updated) before a given date. Then I could focus on just those older alerts; but even there flipping down the list of older alerts and being able to see a chart to know whether i should still keep the alert would be helpful. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted July 3, 2023 Report Share Posted July 3, 2023 you mean like "Delete Orphan Alerts" button on the alert editor toolbar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
