Release v3.8 What's Inside

Release Date: May 15th, 2024
Objectives: (1) Give users greater visibility into the realtime status of every Trade Alert and notify when targets are reached; (2) Optimize the performance of Trade Alerts and Performance Reports.
 
Trade Alert Report Enhancements

1. Trade Alert Status Updates:  Each Trade Alert now displays Alert Status in the Trade Alert Report, including when the Trade Alert is active, when the target is reached, and when the Trade Alert is no longer active. The Alert Status displays 'Active' when issued, and automatically updates to 'Target Reached' or 'Expired' as appropriate. The Alert Report designates in the new 'Status Change' column the date and time of the status change. These changes will only affect Alert Status for Trade Alerts issued after the v3.8 Release Date.

  
2. Filter Trade Alert Report:  Users can filter the Trade Alert report to view all 'Active', 'Target Reached', or 'Expired' Alerts.

3. Extended Trade Alert History:  Trade Alerts displayed on the Trade Alert Report now show users Alerts received up to 60 days in the past.
4. Custom Date Range Search:  Users can search the Trade Alert report by a custom date range.
5. Trade Period Filtering:  Users can filter Trade Alerts received by Trade Period using a multi-select feature by holding down the 'Ctrl' key and clicking selections for Intraday, One Day, Multiday, Trading Week, and Multiweek.
    
   Trade Alert Notifications

Alert Target Reached Notifications:  In addition to indicators on your Trade Alert Report, Email & SMS notifications are sent when Alert Targets are reached. These notifications are subject to your default settings for each existing price condition (i.e., if you select email but not SMS alerts, only an email will be sent).

 
Trade Alert Speed Enhancements
