I agree, all the latest smart phones can access the internet and
many brokers, TDAmeritrade is the one I'm familiar with, have
software to use with your phone. I suggest having "saved orders" in
with your broker to make it a few touches on your phone to follow
the signals once they are texted to the subscriber.
The problem is, that peter brought up, is someone devious could
start a messaging service where they set up an automatic forward to
a mass service or group of other people. Therefore the text
message may not contain the actual trade, but instead an alert
only, then you would have to go to a protected landing page
that displays the actual trade
Would there be a problem with accessing that site (landing page)
with a smart phone? I can bookmark sites on my phone and then key
in passwords just like a computer. It would be an extra step but It
seems like it would be doable.
Completely agree Matt - This would prob be the best way to do it
for now. As we all intend to use our PDA's or similar to execute
these , a quick tap in on my iphone to a protected area to
get the trade details prior to execution would be ideal until Stan
and his boys are able to offer a Multiucharts solution.
Not all of us want to go the Multicharts route and many of us
don't use PDAs or similar. Since the text message would likely only
be an alert to check the protected landing page on your website,
please give people the option to receive the alert messages thru
email. Many thanks!!!
