Possible to create an alert when BE trigger is hit?

Just like the title says, if I have a break even trigger on my OCO config, can I set an alert when it triggers? I like the freedom to walk away from my PC in a trade and still hear audible alerts. I know I can manually add a symbol alert but I was hoping there is a way to just have it alert when BE is hit.

There are no Alert options specific to when a "Move to Breakeven" occurs, or on any particular trigger event for working orders. Refer to the following for what is available in terms of alerts/notifications for orders:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Notifications (Global Settings >> General Trade Settings)

You can create what you want, but you will probably have to use the "Spreadsheet System for Trading" to get the necessary information from the J column for your particular trade. But you will also, most likely, have to modify this for each position you open. Refer to the following:
