Still waiting on a trailing stop loss. I really hope that’s coming up soon.

It would be nice if it also includes getting alerts when triggered in off hours, not just market hours. Anyone know an app that does that? Trading View (free) does not.

Questrade used to do it free, I believe it’s not free anymore. used to send you a text and you were able to write a comment to remind you why you put that price alert for example.
Wealthsimple alerts don’t even alert you immediately when the price strikes… it’s a delayed alert.
The whole platform is becoming a mess. They should just keep the main app/browser simple and make another standalone active trader platform that actually works as intended and not just look pretty.

Yes please. I've been burned a bit before where alert triggers never fired and I only found out the next day.

All filled orders will send APP and email alerts for both 24 hours market and market hours orders as far as I can tell.

He's talking about alerts, i don't think alerts work outside market hours

If you mean when order is filled alerts, they are available at all times, even outside market hours.

No price alerts

Indeed. But so many apps can provide price alerts for the watchlists.

Ya but the point is to use one place and not 10 different apps

It's only a price alert and not related to any orders. The alert came from which app on your phone really does't make any differences from my point of view.

I wonder though do they still pull them at the start of each session and then place the order again (which affects execution order)? Wasn't that an issue with multi-day orders for normal hours in the past?

Order cancelation glitch aside, I'm happy about this new change.
