ForecastCity alerts watch 4CastMachine AI forecasts, price levels and indicators accurately so you do not have to sit at the chart. Tell or ask AI Trading Assistant by voice or in writing to create an alert in seconds. Or follow these step-by-step guides to build and check each kind of alert yourself.
Your first complete alert
Follow these four guides in order. Together they cover the whole workflow.
Create your first price alert. Open the editor, build one price condition and save it.
Choose how often an alert fires and when it is active. Set the trigger, the end date and the hours when the alert is active.
Choose where your alert arrives. Connect the place where you want to receive alerts, such as your phone.
Find out why an alert did not arrive. See when an alert fired, and find out why a message is missing.
The first four guides are enough to use alerts well. The other guides add more kinds of conditions.

Add 4CM-AI forecast conditions
4CM-AI conditions work on symbols that have a 4CastMachine AI forecast, in the markets your subscription plan includes. If a feature such as 4CM-AI or a multi-condition alert is outside your subscription plan, selecting or saving it opens an upgrade card. 4CM-AI is greyed out in the first box only when the symbol itself has no 4CastMachine AI forecast. Rest the mouse on that box to see why.
