What we can do with Unusual Whales and the <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=unusualwhales.com&amp;hl=en_US">Unusual Whales App</a> is have the platform send us push notifications to our mobile devices any time the filter triggers.Setting up custom alerts is quite simple from the Unusual Whales Homepage, and this is how you can set up a new filter and alert from scratch via the <a href="https://unusualwhales.com/custom-alerts?noti_type=option_contract_interval&amp;name=Interval+Flow&amp;exclude_itm=true&amp;hide_index_etf=true&amp;interval=10&amp;issue_types=Common+Stock%2CADR&amp;max_multileg_volume_ratio=0.3&amp;min_ask_perc=0.7&amp;min_premium=100000&amp;min_total_vol_perc=0.65&amp;min_volume=1500&amp;min_volume_oi_ratio=1.05&amp;total_vol_greater_oi=true&amp;vol_greater_oi=true&amp;symbols=all">Custom Alerts settings</a>. First, navigate to the Custom Alerts tab by either searching “Custom Alerts” in the dynamic search bar:<figure class="image"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe6d7fe79-0b15-4d60-a69b-74fd5a4bca9e_1600x947.png"></figure>Or you can select the “Resources” tab and then “Custom Alerts”:<figure class="image"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F35321696-117c-4ae4-aa74-ee12208274c7_1600x860.png"></figure>For a more detailed guide on how to build your filter from scratch in the Custom Alerts tab, <a href="https://unusualwhales.com/information/how-to-set-custom-alerts-on-interval-flow-for-improved-flow-feed-filtering">follow the instructions in this article here</a>. What we can do to make things MUCH quicker and easier, though, is pre-load all of the settings from Filters you’ve already created directly from your Interval Flow Feed. Let’s look at that.From your Interval Flow Feed (navigate from the sidebar “Options Data” → “Interval Flow”. Then, select which of your Filters you want this custom alert set up for. After that, click the bell.<figure class="image"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F1be29bbf-260f-43a3-b1ba-23789e8c1a6a_942x730.png"></figure>This takes us to the Custom Alerts settings, and there isn’t a whole lot you need to do here, but let’s go over the next steps.Now that we’re on the Custom Alerts page, we can see that the settings are pre-set to Interval Alerts, All, and our filters are already set up and ready to go!All we have to do from here is name the alert in the field (yellow box). Here, I’ve named it “Interval Flow &gt;$10k BTO” because this Custom Alert is based on my greater than $10,000 premium, ask-side only filter. This is a breakdown of the settings within this filter, but again when we’ve already got filters set up, there’s no need for adjustments within the custom alerts panel:Our Time interval is set to 10 minutes, with no restrictions on the % Total Volume, Total Interval Premium greater than $100k, and the Total Volume greater than Open Interest. We set the Ask % to 70% ask-side. % Multi is set to a maximum of 0.3 to only allow contracts with 30% or LESS of all transactions occurring as multi-leg trades.<figure class="image"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd52bf1e7-0f13-4144-831f-a156f8577a59_428x543.png"></figure>Again, by just clicking that bell, you can set up custom alerts for any and all of your flow and interval flow filters!<h2>Related Articles</h2><ul><li><a href="https://unusualwhales.com/information/how-to-build-and-use-interval-flow-filters">How to Build and Use Interval Flow Filters</a></li><li><a href="https://unusualwhales.com/information/how-to-enable-custom-alert-push-notifications">How to Enable Custom Alert Push Notifications</a></li></ul>
