It may be helpful to read our article on trailing stop orders for more context before reading about our alert options.
A trailing stop loss alert is a feature that allows you to set a trigger price for your stocks. If the stock price falls below the trigger price, you will receive an alert letting you know that it's time to sell. This is unique in the sense that as the stock price rises, the trailing price stop loss you set will also rise, ensuring that if the stock EVER drops by a certain amount, you would receive a notification.
A Trailing Price Stop Loss Alert is triggered when the stock price dips down a set dollar amount from the current price. The trigger is constantly readjusted as the stock price changes. The trailing price stop loss alert allows you to “ride” the upward trend on certain stocks without getting unnecessarily stopped out and without having to constantly monitor your position. When you finally do receive the alert, the upward trend has shifted to a downward one and you can sell your position.
A Trailing Percent Stop Loss Alert is triggered when the stock price dips down a set percent amount from the current price. The trigger is constantly readjusted as the stock price changes. This is similar to the above alert but with a percentage instead of a set dollar amount.
A Trailing Buy Stop Price Alert is triggered when the stock price rises a set dollar amount from the current price. The trigger is constantly readjusted as the stock price changes. This is particularly helpful to traders shorting a stock.
A Trailing Buy Stop Percent Alert is triggered when the stock price rises a set percent from the current price. This is similar to the above alert but with a percentage instead of a set dollar amount.
With Stock Alarm you can set trailing buy stop and trailing stop loss 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.
