How to set price alerts and favourite pairs
Last updated:
Tap the star next to a pair to add it to your favourites. To get notified when a price is reached, open the price alert on the trading page, choose a condition and price, and select how you want to be notified.
How do I add a favourite pair?
- Find the pair in Markets or in the pair list on the trading page.
- Tap the star. Tap it again to remove it.
- Open the favourites tab to see only your starred pairs.
How do I set a price alert?
- Open the pair on the trading page and open the alert.
- Choose the condition, such as price equals, more than, less than, or more than or less than.
- Enter the price. It must be within a range around the current market price; the form shows the minimum and maximum.
- Choose the alert frequency: how many times you want to be notified.
- Add a note if you like, for example "Good time to buy".
- Choose Notify me on: application, email or SMS, and save.
How many alerts can I have?
You can have one alert per pair. Saving a new alert on the same pair updates the existing one and starts its count again.
How are alerts checked?
Alerts are checked against trades on the pair. When a trade matches your condition, you are notified, with a short pause between repeated notifications, until the frequency you chose is reached.
Why can't I choose SMS?
SMS alerts need a verified phone number on your account. Add one in Security.
Price alerts only notify you; they do not place an order. To trade automatically at a price, use a limit order or a stop-limit order. The alert feature can be switched off by Xoibit, in which case you cannot save new alerts.
