Any comments to its pro & Con, thanks

Anyone use Stock Tracker +Alert? an iPhone app

Anyone uses StockTouch? an iPhone app

What is the best smartphone app(s) for:

1) ALERTS , trigger by technical indicators, NOT price

AND

2) reviewing charts with indicators

??????????

TD's TOS, TC2000, Fidelity, Schwab, Tradestation, eTrade, Scottrade, Google, Yahoo, BreakPointTrades ????????

Trading style:

I am not a day trader, but a swing trader/investor. For charting, End of Day would be OK. But for ALERTS, I would like real time.

Reason I ask, I am finally ready to dump my 7 years old flip phone and pay for a data plan (do I hear cheap, cheap, cheap).

Please, lets not get into which is a better phone iPhone vs Android, vs Windows 8.

Let do the pro and con of the apps

thanks

I have a question

I will try to ask the question, but I sense I am stumbling to ask the correct question. As a learning student to stock investing, I want to know, when and how do I determine, to rotate my investments from growth to dividends? Or maybe another way to ask, when should I change my newsletter subscription from a growth newsletter to dividend newsletter?

I understand growth vs. dividends depend on the personal investment styles. But beyond that, here are some of my thoughts I am trying to understand, to answer "WHEN & HOW" investment rotation.

The country’s GDP above or below 2%. But the GDP forecast are slow and usually incorrect.

Corporation’s quarterly earnings forecast. But where would I get a total summary, or is this the country’s GDP forecast?

Maybe a monthly S&P500 chart with a long moving average?

Maybe when S&P dividend’s forecast is greater then the GDP forecast?

When the market is going sideways?

I am confused, HELP!

thanks

FYI

I just discovered a web site for Macro Economy and other stock market info

dshort.com

Check out Alerts at Zignals.com

 I am just starting to play with their site. For me a swing trader to active investor, their alerts are great. But for a fast day trader, hmmm maybe no.

The alerts does price, EMA crossovers, volume, etc.

Theirs alerts are on a daily chart,  on their server , not your PC. Its written the alerts go out 15 minutes after trigger, during the trading day.

Zignals has Microsoft backing. Yes, Microsoft.

Zignals allows its members to post and sell trading strategies. They also track the strategies. Charting is so-so. Their internet speed for screen changes is slow.

Many of you may know, but others like myself did not know,

S&P 500 index includes (approx) 70 Nasdaq stocks and a few AMEX stocks, a few foreign corporations stocks, the rest from the NYSE.

The NYSE stocks are (approx) 82% of the S&P500.

This is based on index lists of Feb 4, 2010. The lists do change with time.

So when we chart the NYSE charts (like the NYSI Summation Index) with comparisons to the SPX, just remember the SPX is only (approx) 82% of NYSE

The Nasdaq stocks included in the S&P500 index are:
