What is a data update notification in the Online Stock Tools?

Key Features
Data update notifications are a helpful way to stay on top of your stock studies without needing to manually check each one. When you sign up for notifications, you'll receive a browser alert if any of your SSG studies within a portfolio have been updated with new data. This can save you time and ensure your studies always reflect the latest information.

Notifications will appear on your computer, tablet, or cell phone—wherever you’re using the Online Stock Tools and have allowed notifications.

How to Set Up a Notification
To enable data update notifications for a portfolio:

1. From your Member Home Page, go to My Studies, or if you’re already using the Online Stock Tools, click the folder icon in the blue left navigation menu.

2. In the Portfolios section at the top, locate the portfolio you'd like to update.

3. Click the pencil icon to edit that portfolio.

4. In the Edit Portfolio dialog box, check the box labeled “Data Update Notification.”

5. Click “Save” to apply the change.

After saving, your browser will prompt you to allow notifications from the Online Tools website. Be sure to approve this request so the notifications can be delivered.

What You Will See
Once notifications are enabled:

• You’ll receive a daily browser notification when any stock study in your selected portfolio has new data available.
• These alerts will appear on your desktop, tablet, or mobile device, depending on where you're signed in and have notifications allowed.
• The notification will prompt you to update the affected SSGs to reflect the most recent data.

This simple setup can help you keep your studies accurate and up to date with minimal effort.
