The SRS swing trade signal from yesterday was stopped out today
with a profit actually. The SKF swing system was also
stopped out today , but lost a small 3.8% when the 15 SMA crossed
the 84 SMA. 3.8% is not bad for an ultra volatile ETF like
SKF.
At this time, the website is not set up for us to send emails
intra day on these systems, maybe in the future that can be done,
but right now we are not set up for it. It's best at this
time for you to place the MA's on your own chars, then you will
have the signals in real time.

I have easily set up automatic signals with email
alerts that text message my cell phone through my
Tradestation account. It works well as I work full time and
can't follow the market during the day on a regular basis. It was
also pretty easy to edit the 2 line moving averages in Tradestation
to those recommended by Matt and Steve. The hardest part is
deciding which mechanical system(s) to use, since I am limited by
my brokerage account taking 3 days to settle funds. I have to say
that I have only been a member of Breakpointtrades for only a few
months but am very impressed with Matt and Steve so
far.

I have committed to the SPX 60MIN 7/21EMA SWING SYSTEM. It
am happy with. The strategy I use is aggrasive however, the SPX
60MIN has increased my trading account by 50% since the
beginning of last week.
It chose it because I too still have a fulltime job. The system
demands a little less of my time but produces robust profits in
this environment. Less whipsaws, less trading, longer holding times
and large profits.
I have considered getting a mobile device but, at this time
still don't need it.

Could you please explane the process you went through to get txt
messages sent to you from TS? I am a full time trader, but
sometimes I step away for a few and miss an entry because the price
moved faster than I thought...a warning a few % ahead of time would
be nice.
You can also right click in a chart windo, select "Format
Analysis Techniques" click on "format" then select the alerts
tab. I beleive this works the same way for "Format
Strategies" ....

Brian, when I do format staretgies, I do not see an alerts tab
or option. TS software told me how to do the alerts using the
method I described earlier. Hey, whatever works right!?
