Hello everyone, the new watchlist/trade ideas format is
basically complete. I say basically because I'm sure we'll do
some tweaks along the way after feedback and using it, however it's
in a usable format now
Searchbox so I can look up a symbol or company
name even when I don't remember the specific date of the newsletter
with the Trade Idea. When the search gets a hit on that symbol, I
would like to see a list of all the dates of the newsletters where
you have posted a Trade Idea on that symbol, or all the updates to
your ideas.
In addition to the "per newsletter" grouping, I would like to
see a
long listof all the Trade Ideas, maybe 20,50,100
to a page, with the ability to sort by symbol or by newsletter
date, or by industry sector, so I can quickly locate a Trade Idea
even when I don't know the specific date of the newsletter.
On
cursor hoverover the symbol, pop-up a little
legend box with the full name or description. Sometimes my memory
fails to remember the symbols. It is an age problem...
The
Swingcolumn is underutilized. I know that this is
a very personal topic, but maybe you could use it to give an idea
of the expected duration of the trade, as in 1 day, 1 week, 1
month, or whatever other duration you feel is appropriate.
Where ARNA in the url is the symbol, we'll be adding a search
box though so that you can look up any symbol as well as check on
earnings dates for stocks that we haven't posted any trade ideas
about.
Pop up alerts are back up, we had them turned off for a few days
while we were putting up the new watchlist, however there is still
a bug, all the alerts today are old ones, none of the recent ones
added to the watchlist are triggering, again we'll get this fixed.
but again, these are not a replacment for you doing your own
homework and setting alerts on your end, don't use them as a crutch
to not do homework on your side.
One cool thing that I failed to mention in the video is that you
can bookmark a page for a symbol and any updates that occur for
that symbol, i.e. new audio's files and charts will automatically
be added to that page!
For example, trade idea BPI, here's the link for the trade
idea
Any new updates we do for this stock in future newsletters will
automatically be adde to this page because of how our database
groups them, pretty cool!
So if you have positions in a few of our trade ideas, you can
simply book mark the page for that symbol and automatically receive
updates for that stock!
We even have the ability to set it up where you could check mark
a stock and any time we do updates on that stock, it would
automatically get sent to your email or phone.
Matt, I'm on a break at jury duty and I haven't been able to see
your video, so I apologize if this is redundant. But why do some
stocks get listed on more than one day?

Because there have been updates to the trades. We'll be cleaning
up the symbol specific page in the near future to make this
clearer. But essentially there is a first post when the trade is
added to the trade ideas, and then subsequent posts updating you to
the trade status.

For the time being you can just go to the url for the Symbol ie:
http://breakpointtrades.com/watchlist/trade.php?symbol=ARNA
Where ARNA in the url is the symbol, we'll be adding a search box though so that you can look up any symbol as well as check on earnings dates for stocks that we haven't posted any trade ideas about.
