Alerts Log

Once a basic, custom, or trend line alert that you have set on an individual symbol is triggered, Neovest will notify you of the alert via a pop-up box if you have chosen to activate this feature. In addition to this alert functionality, Neovest provides an Alerts Log that is designed to continually record your triggered basic, custom, and trend line alerts during the current trading day.

Each "Alerts Log" tab is connected to a particular Neovest Alerts window and is designed to only log the triggered alerts that were originally set in the Alerts window to which it is uniquely connected.

The following instructions explain how you may access the "Alerts Log" tab connected to a Neovest Alerts window:
