Trading Alerts – Alert Types

The Alert Types is the next multiple choice filtering criteria which will assist in narrowing

down the field of over 12 000 symbols and tradable securities. In this field, the options are to choose what type of alerts you would

like to see in the results pane; New Highs, New Lows and Price Breakouts are time-based

price changes, while Volume Breakouts are volume-based changes.

Block Trades are based on large single orders which can be further qualified by price range,

as well as specific volume.

These filtering buttons and check boxes will assist you in narrowing down the entire

market to the conditional parameters which meet your criteria.

*Note that changes in these fields require the Update button

to be clicked after any or all the parameters have been selected.

Hint: The coloring of the symbol background within results pane directly correspond to the headers of the Alert Types.

Full Montage – Tabs/Pivot Point

The Pivot Point tab provides calculated floor pivot values with the ability to change the variables as necessary.

Pivot points are support and resistance

levels calculated using previous session's data. Originally used by floor traders to

find the market direction during a trading session, pivots are based on the high, low

and close values to create several resistance and support levels. These levels

are known as pivot levels and they are used by many traders (you may find that the market often reacts at these levels).

One of the main advantages of pivot points is that it allows you to predict

potential support and resistance areas and therefore know your entries and exits

are before the start of the next trading session.

unique color band as to provide an easily identifiable Level 2 price view. All

Full Montage – Tabs/Pivot Point

The Pivot Point tab provides calculated floor pivot values with the ability to change the variables as necessary.

Pivot points are support and resistance

levels calculated using previous session's data. Originally used by floor traders to

find the market direction during a trading session, pivots are based on the high, low

and close values to create several resistance and support levels. These levels

are known as pivot levels and they are used by many traders (you may find that the market often reacts at these levels).

One of the main advantages of pivot points is that it allows you to predict

potential support and resistance areas and therefore know your entries and exits

are before the start of the next trading session.
