Abstract: A method for providing financial alerts includes retrieving financial transaction data for the plurality of financial instruments. The financial transaction data includes at least open price, close price, high price, low price, time and volume of individual financial transactions. Time periods for generating user requested information are identified. Price charts for the time periods are generated based on the retrieved financial transaction data. The generated price charts include one or more technical indicators. A financial alert configuration received from a user is analyzed. The financial alert configuration includes a trigger condition. The generated price charts are automatically analyzed to calculate the relative position of the technical indicator conditions that the user has selected in order to determine if one or more of the trigger conditions has been met. An alert notification is generated, in response to determining that the one or more trigger conditions has been met.
