Trading clients such as ThnkOrSwim allow you to have alerts when conditions are met on your chart. If your client allows you to use MP3s in place of standard alert sounds, then you can customize your alerts so you know what is firing.

$ mpg123 -w forex.wav forex.mp3
TOS users will want to use Audacity to combine the voice alert with the alert bell.
Here are some audio alerts I created:
