So, you might want to buy dollars and sell pounds if sterling hits a level of $1.40, crossing its 21-day moving average and registering a positive signal on its relative strength index in the process. With just a couple of clicks on the relevant chart, you can instruct this service to send an alert to your e-mail or personal digital organiser as soon as your criteria are fulfilled. Or, for a small fee, you can receive the message by text message.
As well as being free, the basic Forex Alerts package is both simple and clever. Because it's all done by clicking the chart, there are no codes to learn. And you can enter many different conditions and adjust their terms to your exact specifications. You can try it for yourself at www.timetotrade.eu.
Free access to financial data, charts, portfolio tools and more - registration is quick, secure and free!
