Note

If you own and watch a given asset, the holdings price alerts settings will apply. Learn more about adding stocks to your watchlist. Custom alerts are sent as push notifications from Robinhood to your mobile device or phone.

Default price alerts

You should start getting price alerts for any stock you hold if you’ve enabled notifications. Price alerts for assets on your watchlists are disabled by default, but you can enable them any time.

Price movement alerts

The price movement alert options in the app are 5% (default) and 10%. You’ll get an alert for each asset you own or watch based on the price threshold chosen. With the 5% threshold, you’ll get alerts for 5% and 10% price movements. If you choose the 10% threshold, you’ll only get alerts when an asset you own or watch has hit a 10% price movement.

52 week high/low alert

Within the price movement alerts, you can also choose to turn on 52 week high/low notifications in the app. If an asset you own or watch hits a 52 week high or low, you’ll get an alert. You should only get 1 high and 1 low alert (if applicable) for each stock or asset per week.

Custom price alerts

You’ll get an alert for each asset you own or watch based on the price alerts you set up in the app. You can get an alert if a price moves above or below the set amounts.
