We’ve created a step-by-step guide on how to create alerts across any screener.
How many stocks are scanned for alerts?
We default to running scans for all NSE stocks unless you change a scan to run for a watchlist, nifty 50, nifty 100. The number of stocks scanned for is dependent on the scan definition.
When are intraday, daily, weekly and monthly alerts run?
Intraday – An alert for 1 minute starts running at 9:16am(Lowest time interval). Considering the latest data as of 9:15:59am, the next run would be at 9:17am.
Market open – Runs at 9:20am considering the latest data as of 9:19:59am.
Market close – Runs between 6pm-7pm daily
Weekly – Runs every Friday between 6pm-7pm
Monthly – Runs on the last day of the month between 6pm-7pm
Are the alerts live[in real-time]?
Yes, our scans run on the latest live data available eg. If you have configured to run a scan every 5 minutes, the first scan would be at 9:20am, which will be based on the data as of 9:19:59am. As we process dozens of scans for every user throughout the day, there could be a delay of up to 1 minute while you are notified.
How frequently would I be notified of alerts?
We send our alert notifications based on alert configuration. If you’ve set an alert to run every 5 minutes, it shall run at 9:20am, 09:25am, and 09:30am. We send you notifications ONLY when we find new stocks the scans to avoid spamming your SMS/mailbox.
How many alerts I shall receive?
We provide a total of 2,000 SMS & email credits in a month, which are used while sending alerts. These allow you to receive more than 90+ alerts per day. Notification credits(SMS & email) will be used at an alert level and independent of the number of stocks filtered in a scan. If an alert notifies you about 50 stocks, it will use a single notification credit.
What happens when your NOTIFICATION credits finish?
You can purchase additional SMS or Email credits. Visit your subscription dashboard to do so.
HOW DO WE SEE ALL THE ALERTS CONFIGURED?
We provide a alerts dashboard that allows you to configure and manage your active alerts.
Do you provide the scanners, or does the subscriber have to use his own scanners?
You can add alerts on any of the 1,50,000+screeners‘ available on the site or create your own.
IS THERE FREE TRIAL AVAILABLE?
We provide all our other tools(scans, charts) free to use on our site. Alerts are resource intensive and is also supported by external services, including sms/email,which include additional costs’. Hence, we don’t provide a trial for the same.

We now offer near real-time NSE updates for Charts & Scans. The data is updated every 5 minutes, the latest update referring current market values. Data is directly fetched from the NSE servers.
Example: If Market opens at 9:15am, on a 5 minute interval the updates can be described as follows:
9:20am – Data from 9:15am – 9:19am
9:25am – Data from 9:20am – 9:24am
9:30am – Data from 9:25am – 9:29am
The minimum data delay would be 0 minutes(eg: at 9:20am) and the maximum would be 5 minutes(eg: at 9:24am)
WaveTrend indicator is now available in our Charts & Screener. It can be added for Intraday, daily, weekly & monthly ranges and accepts 3 parameters as below:
Calculation period: number of candles used to calculate WaveTrend, defaults to 10

Do you show or add Pre-Market data?
Pre-market data for the current day is available at 9:09 am and includes data up until 09:08:59 am. Our scans for daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly candles are updated at 09:09 am, while intraday candles with intervals of 1/2/3 minutes are updated starting from 09:15 am.
Alerts are not sent out before 9.15 am. You will need to manually run the scan and view the results with candles, including pre-market values.
Why is volume data not available for indices like Nifty and Banknifty?
Indices like Nifty and Banknifty do not have volume data because they are composite instruments of multiple stocks. Indices are calculated based on the price movements of the underlying stocks rather than their volume. Hence, volume data is irrelevant for indices and not displayed on charts and scans.
Do you have pre-defined scans that we can run?
On our “SCREENER” page, many pre-built screeners are available for use. These screeners can be found on the list and used to start your analysis. You can choose from fundamental and technical screeners according to your preferred strategy. You also search for other scans as well—E.g., breakout stocks, RSI scanners, NR 7 scans…etc. Here is an example of searched scans – Search for NR7 scans
How to find Shareholding attributes?
You may refer to the dashboard that we have specially made for shareholding patterns(FII, DII and Public) – Industry Shareholding pattern
How can we increase the number of stocks shown in the Atlas dashboard(from 50)?

Open your dashboard and select the ‘Group/Sort’ option.
Drag the ‘Data per symbol’ option from 5 to 1.
After you have made this change, the ‘Number of symbols’ option will appear, automatically set to 50.

Can we set our scans or dashboard as private mode/hidden from others?
Yes, This feature is available to our premium subscription users. It allows users to create scans or dashboards that can be made private, rendering them hidden and inaccessible to others.

Not able to copy-paste scans?
