It may be helpful to read our article on a stock's EMA to gain more context before reading about the EMA alerts we offer.
The Exponential Moving Average is a common technical analysis tool used to gauge the strength and direction of trends and to act as potential support or resistance for a moving stock. The period that the EMA represents is directly correlated to which time frame the moving average is best suited for. The exponential moving average (EMA) is a type of moving average that places a greater weight on recent price data.
EMA Target Alerts allow you to monitor when the exponential moving average of a certain stock crosses above or below a target value. Stock Alarm currently supports EMAs with the following periods: 5 Day, 10 Day, 20 Day, 30 Day, 50 Day, 100 Day, and 200 Day.
Confirm Support Buys in Channels and Trends: Much like we can use this EMA Target alert to confirm a breakout position, we can use it to confirm an important support level is being held. Just set the EMA Target at the price of support, and once the stock climbs above this level, this could be interpreted as evidence that support is holding.
EMA Price Cross Alerts allow you to monitor when the exponential moving average of a certain stock crosses above or below the current price of the stock. Stock Alarm currently supports EMAs with the following periods: 5 Day, 10 Day, 20 Day, 30 Day, 50 Day, 100 Day, and 200 Day.
Establish the General Trend of the Stock: When the stock is above its X-Day EMA, it is considered to be “in strength.” Stocks moving above their 5-Day Moving Averages have shown consistent bullish action throughout the last X days of movements on the stock exchange. A X-Day EMA Target alert can help you catch those kinds of stocks while they’re in bullish form.
With Stock Alarm you can set EMA alerts on stocks, etfs, crypto, indices, commodities, and more. When your alert triggers you will receive a notification via push notification, email, phone call, or text message.

Well Done!
Does everything I need it to do! I was looking for a closing price notification which this app does perfectly. I ended up setting several other alerts beside closing price, which especially helps with momentum trading.
Great Service
UI is clean and easy to use. Market data is accurate and up to date. It takes a little stress out of my day when I know I don't have to constantly check pricing. 5/5! Thanks guys!
This saved my marriage!
Yours is a simple and yet powerful app. I wish more developers would choose this path of less animation and fireworks and more straight to the point nuts and bolts features. Fantastic job!!
Great work!
This app deserves more attention! Simple and working very fine.
Thee. Greatest. Discovery.
This app is super useful and it has helped me soooo much already. it is user friendly, convenient, and I am so glad I found this app. If you trade, this app is a must have!!!
Killer App
As a majority of my investments are crazy speculative like beyond meat, I desperately needed to be alerted to large swings.
Amazing For Important Price Action Updates
Would highly recommend using this app if you work but need real-time updates on price action. Getting a phone call when critical price points are hit has saved me sooo much money on my trades.
Nice
Awesome app that helps keep track of stocks you’re watching. I especially like it because I don’t want to be on phone checking crypto and stock prices all the time but there are some price changes I would want to know about ASAP and Stock Alarm facilitates that!
Devs that care - love it
Requested a new trigger type and they added it within the month. Got a call at 5am for a bitcoin alert and sold instantly, this app is worth it!
Amazing App - MUST BUY FOR ANY TRADER
This app is absolutely amazing. Whether you trade crypto, day trade, or hold a long position; this app is useful for everything! Before getting this app I was constantly checking in on my positions and how the market was doing.
AMAZING App. Love these alerts!
As someone who trades to supplement a 9 to 5, this app allows me to be as in touch with the markets as the professionals. Easy to set up and use.
Stock alert working great
Set my first stock alert 30 days ago and wasn’t sure it was ever going to reach that level again but it did and each time it went above my set level I would get a notification. This allowed me to get in where I wanted and reallocate. Now I’m setting up more. It’s loud enough to be heard and gets the job done.
