Sentinel Trigger

How do you create a trigger when Sensex is down by x%, alert should be created. I tried today, but it said “trigger condition already met”.

We can use any one of the below-given functions as per our requirement. If you face any difficulties kindly share the screenshot for further support or you may raise a ticket here.

DayChangePercent(‘exchange:tradingsymbol’) = Percentage change in price compared to previous day’s market close
IntraDayChangePercent('exchange:tradingsymbol’) = Percentage change in price compared to market open.

2 questions here:

  1. How do I create a trigger for absolute value? if sensex is down by 500 points

  2. Can I do it in basic alerts? I have all the dropdowns available. But wasn’t able to do it as I got the message “trigger condition already met”

  1. You can find all available functions here.

  2. DayChange/ DayChange percentage indicates a certain (X) price/percentage movement irrespective of up or down. Cannot set a condition to get alert for a movement in any particular direction(up/down). You may use streak for the same.

Got it. Thanks!
