About AlertDesk

If you pay for trade recommendations, or get free ones, AlertDesk puts them beside your own trades so you can see how they're working out.

It does three things:

Collects every recommendation from your services, opens and closes, into one list.
Tells you about each new rec and close from the services you follow -- on Positions, with a dot on its icon and a notification -- and when one says to close something you still hold. The service's own text or email is still the first signal.
Keeps score, comparing your closed trades with what each service recommended, so you learn which services, and which of your own calls, do well.

AlertDesk never places trades and never predicts anything. It's an analysis and alert tool: information, not advice.
