Email/text alerts with Oanda?

I am trading with Oanda. Is there a way to get email or text message alerts when one of my trades executes?

First two months of live trading... I seem to have a huge problem with constantly watching the screen and fidgeting with my trades. This has proven to bite me in the butt *every* time... if I had just left all my trades the way I first made them, and just walked away from the computer, I'd have doubled my account by now instead of floundering around at break even...

If you are setting pending orders based on price you can get MT4 to send you emails fairly easily. Under tools, options, email make sure you have all the settings done there first. Then, when you set a pending order based on price you can add an email alert by clicking the alerts tab in your terminal window(shoudl be at the bottom of mt4 if not click view then terminal). Right click and then click create. There you can specify price, whether it is just an audible or an email alert and how many times you want it to trigger. You MUST leave metatrader running for these alerts to work.

Hope this is what you were looking for.

OH CRAP!! Sorry just realized you said Oanda. Disregard my dissertation above. LOL! Sorry. But you could run a demo version of mt4 and still accomplish this by placing the orders with oanda and then letting mt4 send you the alerts.

Stalked that AUDJPY from Frankfurt open and couldn't stay awake. Set a price alarm on TOS to trade Oanda but slept through that. Now I have recorded my voice to have Echo play guitar solos as the TOS price alert. Food for thought. Cheers
