Disclaimer & How I use this list



How do I configure the Trade-Ideas setups you have updating on your page on to my own filters I have on trade-ideas?
Thanks.
Hi! I thought I might chime in here with an answer to your question.
The Trade-Ideas set you see updating on the Watchlist page is actually a sample of the real-time alerts we generate for everyone. These alerts are actually a little slower than the alerts paying subscribers see – it’s close enough to real-time to give interested traders a peek at what’s possible.
When the markets close the widget above replays the tape of the day and recycles continuously until the next market open.
If you wanted to simulate this widget within Trade-Ideas, right click in an alert window and select ‘Configure’ and then the ‘Strategies’ tab. Open the Preconfigured Samples folder and select the ‘High Speed Test’ sample.
For more strategy ideas, visit our blog and the articles we have under the ‘Strategy Session’ category. Good luck!
