If you know the price and the symbol, you can just enter them on the technical alert page.
Otherwise, you have to define what you mean by a breakout and write a scan for it.
Suppose you want a 21 day breakout. Your alert might be
[favorites list is ???]
and [1 day ago Upper Price Chan(21) = 5 days ago Upper Price Chan(21)]
and [close x Upper Price Chan(21)]
