Stock Alarm - Alerts, Tracker Reviews

by Ajverde

Pretty terrible experience from the get-go.
The basic principle of StockAlarm is to get alerts on various stocks and financial rates, however, you can’t even see or view what alerts you’ve already set there by making it very hard to manage or know what alerts you want, or don’t want. Seems like a very basic feature to have a list of what alerts you’ve already requested as opposed to having to guess. Very disappointed, and would not recommend this to anyone.

StockAlarm gets your contact info then afterwards makes you sign up for a subscription to use it. Paying to use it isn’t the issue. The issue is the deceitful way they go about getting your contact info. For example, it instructed me “In order to use the message alert system it needs my phone number”. So I enter my phone number then verify it. I then proceeded to set up the alert. It then refused access again and instructed me that I needed a subscription to use the message system… AFTER it had me verify my phone number to use the exact same service… That’s a bit scammy. It should have informed me that I needed a subscription to use the service BEGORE it had me verify my contact information.

I have a current paid membership however mid June 2024 I stopped receiving my text alerts. Customer support said it was an issue with their sms provider and they were switching providers so should be fixxed soon, within 2 weeks. It’s now one month later and still non-functional.

They suggested I use push notifications or email notifications but they do not work either. I replied to them on this, but they never responded.

So StockAlarm is now worthless to me.

I used StockAlarm for price alerts, it was useful for a time but as of recently idk what’s happened. StockAlarm goes hours without price updates. Not reliable at all anymore. No point in paying for price alerts if they don’t update in real time. I’m not just talking about a couple minute/second delays, I am seeing hour+ delays constantly now. Hopefully they can fix it. but as of now StockAlarm is useless and I’ve cancelled my subscription

The first time I use StockAlarm, I really enjoyed it. Last year. I canceled because I took a break from trading and then resubscribed a few months ago. And it wasn’t working the same as it had previously. So I canceled my subscription again. *****DEVELOPERS::: Yet I’m still receiving alarm calls. Please cancel these phone calls. They’re constantly filling up my voicemail.

On the basic app you get 5 stocks alarm. Setting up the alarms is a little cumbersome, seems there are repeats of the same functions but you get used to it. You are not allowed to receive texts unless you pay for the subscription. You can get emails and you can get phone calls. Who wants a phone call? It is crippled under basic mode thus not allowing the user to fully test StockAlarm. Emails on stocks alerts I set were not immediate, there was a lag. Why would I pay for a sub without first fully testing StockAlarm ?

I downloaded this to try after I lost certain alert types when TDA became Schwab. I like to get text alerts when the S&P/DJI/NDX move a certain number of points so I can know if the markets are tanking. Unfortunately I can only get app notifications and not texts from StockAlarm unless I pay $8 a month. So, its not worth it for me. I think you only get 3 free alerts as well, which is fine for my limited criteria, but may not be for most people. Just FYI.

App is cool. Nothing like a user friendly app. In the description it says min by min basis. Thats a lie. Theres definitely a delay, just like the other commenters said. Im on trial right now but $20/month is the only real subscription choice i believe is ideal. 6 stock alarm for $5 for premium alerts no extended hrs, 15 stocks 10 premium alerts for $10, etc etc, cant be choices for a trader i would think. The deal here is just not good in my opinion. && forced phone number shouldnt be neither. The owner needs more thought into this. Lower the price for now i suggest. Thank you for the trail. Take away the news, top gainers and all that extra feature stuff and focus on the main thing StockAlarm should do. Im here for the specific alerts and impeccable timing. #keepitsimple thanks for the opportunity. Best wishes. Probably wont pay the $20 & look for other options sadly. It was a good try though! its not about money, its just principal.

If you are trying to create some more simple alerts such as price change StockAlarm works great. I would love to see the charts have an option to have candles and the technical indicators under the chart so I can make sure that the indicators line up with the trading platform that I am using to actually preform the trades. Being able to add your own timeframe and candles would be the biggest improvement StockAlarm could make. The UI is amazing and StockAlarm is easy to navigate, just would like to see more customizable features in StockAlarm .

I have few OTC stocks, they don’t got. Plus Idk if my RSI alerts are on hourly charts or daily charts. It doesn’t mention. Also I wish I could set the RSI alert “below certain number”, the oversold RSI alert is below 30. There should be an in-app customer support. I tried contacting this app on Instagram long time ago, no response. But I love the fact that they got crypto. except UNI Swap.

I have tried other apps to try to stay alert with market changes in a busy work day and have found this to be the absolute best with various alerting methods to allow me to stay alerted to a target price and pay closer attention to options trade pricing targets.

Set my first stock alert 30 days ago and wasn’t sure it was ever going to reach that level again but it did and each time it went above my set level I would get a notification. This allowed me to get in where I wanted and reallocate. Now I’m setting up more. It’s loud enough to be heard and gets the job done.

by Jtineo28

Edit: Customer Service is great, they were able to help me get access to the application. They respond fairly quick, and now that I have the application to start working it a great application to have.

I struggle to even get past the verification because I haven’t received a text from them. Now my account is apparently blocked because of unusual activity. It seems great and ideal, but if I can’t even get passed the first step StockAlarm is useless.

I really appreciate the peace of mind to be able to walk away from my computer to live a normal life and have my alarms set. I am new to the crypto game and being able to walk away from the computer and know that I’ll get a message for my set levels I don’t want to drop below or go above is very reassuring and gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend StockAlarm to get your life back.

I have been using Stock Alarm along with other stock alert apps for over a year now and the tech of Stock Alarm is second to none. The variety of different triggers you can set, the usability, the responsiveness of the team are truly second to none. Highly recommend.

Investing is a fast paced game, this application is easy to use while simultaneously alarmingly (haha) useful for investing while I’m doing other work, busy, etc... I don’t always have time to stare at my stocks and on any given day I might be running around missing small and slow notifications from other applications onslaught stocks I don’t care about. this app enables me to be in the know just by receiving a phonecall whenever something important happens for the stocks I need. Amazing application!

by Al767ff

GREAT APP!!! I had been really frustrated with other sucky financial apps they tend to not live up to standards and I would waste time money and energy. Finally something that actually works REALLY well. It’s simple and effective-it does what it says and the notifications actually work. No other app has actually been able to do this. Great customer service also - I had a question so I wrote them - I got a very helpful response less than 15 minutes later.. and this was just before midnight.

by Blake0928485

Finally an app that lets you set notifications for percentage. I wish it could be like a rolling hourly percentage instead of just % from market open but i understand why that would be difficult / or only once a day not every time. Nonetheless still my favorite app for notifications/alerts. Thanks again.

by Salilvanvari

Would highly recommend using StockAlarm if you work but need real-time updates on price action. Getting a phone call when critical price points are hit has saved me sooo much money on my trades. So far I’ve been setting notifs around the critical points of potential head and shoulders patterns and I’ve made some sizable profits!

by Mynicknamefornow

I love StockAlarm so much. I work third shift and use StockAlarm to watch the market and call me when alarms that I set go off. StockAlarm is user friendly, and while the free version is good, it is well worth the price for the plans with more features. I’ve used StockAlarm for years and it is 10/10.

by Kitters58

I recently downloaded StockAlarm to assist with my trading. Works like a charm! When prompted by StockAlarm for feedback, I suggested they add a Notes feature so I could remind myself what action I should take on the alert. StockAlarm team responded quickly and the new feature was added with a week! Thanks guys! I’m loving it!!

by Kelezee

I never write reviews but had to as StockAlarm is saving me so much time & energy. It is exactly what I was looking for. I do not need to spend hours staring at my screen waiting for changes in stock prices. You set what you are looking for & get a notification when it happens. Thank you so much for the value that I receive!

by Bluepedia

StockAlarm does something that no other app can regarding the stock market. You can set almost any type of notification you want for a specific stock you have. It is great and and I would highly recommend.

by FindingAlpha

It’s impossible to stay up to date with everything going on in the market. The this app app allows you to configure your alerts and have the comfort that it will notify you via push, email, text or phone in real-time when you alert is triggered s. Super cool and it’s got global coverage of stocks, futures, forex and cryptocurrency.

by Bangbang191

I give StockAlarm 10 starS. love StockAlarm. Made me money and saved me so much stress from continuously checking stock prices. I just set it and forget it lol that is until I get alerts from StockAlarm. Very very very useful. I give this a 10 for giving me peace of mind.

by Hatake0624!!

Have been using StockAlarm for a couple of months now. So easy to track all my stocks and manage the accounts. Would recommend to anyone who is in the market. Life saver.

I have a lot of fancy software and indicators and algos I use but sometimes having the perfect most simplistic alert system for stocks you’re watching, especially in extended sessions, like this is perfect. Super straight forward.
