Hi Pat,

Yes. Price alerts are specified in terms of absolute prices, so you can
figure out what % you want, and specify that in terms of a price.

Also, the trailing stop loss alerts are specified in terms of %. Trailing
stop loss alerts adjust the alert price up, when the share price moves up.

There are no alerts for moving averages, but this is something we may add
in a future version.

Thanks,
Mark
