How to Create Alerts

Stock alerts can be set up on the Webull App easily, notifying you of any price actions, financial results and technical conditions that might affect the stocks you want to follow closely.

Let’s say the current stock price is USD30 a share, and you want to be alerted when the stock price reduces to USD28 but don’t want to wait around watching the price. You can set an alert on the Webull App, where you will be notified when the stock price falls to USD28. Moreover, as mentioned above, alerts can be set with many parameters such as changes in percentages, volume, and abnormal price movement. After establishing your settings, you will receive a push notification whenever your alert settings are met.

Now that you know how alerts work, we will show you how to set different alerts on the Webull App in this article.

Step 1: Go to a stock’s details page

‌

Step 2: Tap the “Alert” Icon at the bottom of the screen

‌

Step 3: Activate Alert Messages

Step 4: Customise Your Alert

You have different parameters to set for each security on the Webull App.
