Alert Messages



In this page, you will learn about how Alert Messages work in the StratBuilder.




To activate these alerts, follow these simple steps:


1. Hover over the StratBuilder name on the chart and click on the icon with the three dots at the very right.

2. Then click ‘Add alert on StratBuilder…’



3. In the ‘Message’ box, input this exactly:

{{strategy.order.alert_message}}



4. Give it any title you want, and then click ‘Create’ and your alert is now set!




So when do the specific alert messages fire off?


  • ‘Alert Message for Entry’ - The alert for this message will be triggered when a trade is entered.


  • ‘Alert Message for Exit’ - The alert for this message will be triggered when the script exits a trade upon closure (not off a take-profit or stop-loss).


  • ‘Alert Message when TP is hit’ - The alert for this message will be triggered when the script exits a trade by hitting the take-profit.


  • ‘Alert Message when SL is hit’ - The alert for this message will be triggered when the script exits a trade by hitting the stop-loss.


In the ‘StratBuilder (2-Side)’ version, there’s input for all of these for both longs and shorts, separately. So longs have their own 4 alert message inputs, and shorts have a separate 4 alert message inputs in the same indicator.
