Bruce,

I think I have asked this before and it is not posiible to have an alarm alert in TC when a stock meets a rule correct if I am wrong pls?

If not in TC I think this is possible in SF from what I have read on the blog before. Am I correct

You can set alerts in TC2000 version 12.4 to get an audible alarm to sound when the symbol starts meeting the requirements of the alert.

Managing Alerts in the Alert Console

Ok now I know what was the issue

I have a watch list of 200 stocks and I want to be alerted when any of them meet a condition. From what i see i have to space bar through each symbol and create 200 scan alerts. Is this correct?

There is no easy way to create an scan alert for all symbols in a given watchlist?

There is no built in way to create alerts for an entire WatchList of symbols at a time. Alerts in TC2000 version 12.4 must be created one symbol at a time.

Bruce is it the same in SF or can we create alerts for teh entire watchlist at once 

It is not nearly so simple to set up alerts in StockFinder because StockFinder doesn't have any built in alerts.

You need to create your owns "alerts" using RealCode. There really aren't any limits to the alerts you built in RealCode in StockFinder. If the RealCode is in the context of a WatchList or Custom Market Indicator, it can be done for an entire WatchList at a time instead of a single symbol at a time.

Ok can you please show me how to do this in SF 

Can we write the RC in a way that I can just drag and drop the rule in the RC 

I am not a programmer and I am not going to be much help with this. Getting the alerts to trigger for an entire WatchList but in a way that they don't keep on triggering constantly is complicated and really beyond the type of thing I can do for you in the forums.

The RealCode Programmers Reference has a section on Simulating an Alert with RealCode Rules which covers one method of creating alerts in StockFinder.

Ok thx

I will look into this 

Can this be added as a suggestion for future enhancements. I think it would be very useful to be able to have alerts for stocks within an entire watchlist as opposed to having to create for one symbol at a time

thanks

Thank you for your suggestion.

Bruce,

Where can I read about the new changes they just made for alerts?

You can find the most recent changes to the TC2000 beta in the TC2000 Beta Release Notes.

Bruce, this would be a great enhancement, I hope you guys are able to add suggested feature soon. I'm following 83 stocks with 58 Forex pairs and it's really hard to add a scan condition to all of them.

Thank you for your suggestion.
