The most popular feature of Uptrends by far is the ability to instantly and easily set custom news alerts for events affecting the stocks you care about. It has literally never been simpler to get notified about market-moving events than it is with Uptrends.

To set alerts: 1) pick a stock or group of stocks, 2) choose the types of alerts you want to receive, and 3) set the frequency you want to be notified. From there Uptrends will send you an email summary of the chatter that matters.

Types of alerts: you can choose from the following alert types - price changes, news surges, sentiment changes, earnings, bankruptcy rumors, lawsuits, mergers/acquisitions, investor activity, executive activity, and/or FDA approvals. You can choose to receive alerts for each individually or grouped across multiple alert types.

Uptrends currently monitors and sends news alerts for the top ~5,000 publicly traded stocks in the US. We are constantly expanding the number of stocks that you're able to set alerts for, so if your not able to find a particular stock you care about receiving alerts for, send us a message and we will work on adding it.

Stock market news sentiment generally refers to the overall tone or mood of online chatter about an individual stock, topics pertaining to stocks, of the market as a whole. By our definition, online chatter includes news stories, social media posts, and blog articles, and any other written medium (eventually it may also include audio- or video-based mediums as well). The term sentiment broadly refers to any measurable indicators of mood, tone, or attitude being expressed about a given subject.

This sentiment can (and often does) have an impact on the attitudes and behaviors of investors. For example: if the majority of news stories about a stock have a positive sentiment, it could help to boost investor confidence and encourage buying activity. On the other hand, if the majority of news stories have a negative sentiment, it could lead to decreased investor confidence and selling activity.For a more complete overview on stock market news sentiment, refer to this blog post.

You can adjust your alert preferences in your Alerts Page. Here, you can see your active alerts for stocks, interest groups, and event types you will receive alerts for, and can add/remove each accordingly. For example, if you'd like to remove an alert, simply click the 'delete' icon. To adjust your event type notifications, click the settings icon you can toggle on and off which events you will receive email notifications for.

Someone's got to spend time finding good, tradeable news about the stocks you care about - why not let us send you the best? Simply put: you do the trading, we'll do the news legwork.

Our very best market-moving alerts only go to premium subscribers, which means you really are missing out on the top brass without a Pro plan. Limited users don't even receive alerts after the 10 alert trial ends.

‍Think of it this way: we save you hundreds of hours per year of time you would've spent doing the legwork to stay ahead of the trends and above the noise yourself. Even if we surface just a few major trades for you each year, the subscription pays for itself.
