What you are doing is the right idea. Just keep in mind that since you are using the "Price Change Since Open" study, if you have it set to 30 minutes, then you are looking at every 30 minute period and the change since the last period started (i.e. 08:00 starts a period and then 08:30, etc.). But, since you are wanting a percentage, you should use the "Percent Change Since Open" study instead.

Therefore to get an alert when the "Percent Change Since Open" is more than 2.5% and the volume of the current bar is greater than 500000, then your alert formula would be the following:
=AND(ID1.SG1 > 0.025, V > 500000)
