Occasionally we will lookout for a breakout in either direction of a consolidation pattern and, through market volatility a breakout in both directions occurs. If the first trade is still open then we “close and reverse” our setups.

SwingPRO, new to version 3.0, will now alert you that we have closed and reversed with specific levels.

Yes (new to version 3.0).

Here is an example:

USDJPY We have opened a short @ 98.771

Trade Details
Open Time: 2013-06-06 14:45:48
Open Price: 98.771
Take-Profit: 98.169
Stop-Loss: 99.169

Usually this is a spam filter problem but if you are sure your alerts are working properly and that no alert was actually sent out when a break occurred then this could be an intentional non-signal. SwingPRO uses real-time intelligence to gauge the strength of the break and, if the break doesn’t meet some minimum strength requirements no break alert is sent out.

This is just another way that we keep our losses small (in addition to our False Break Alert System), and only take high-probability setups. Contact support@piphut.com to make sure.

A support/resistance (S/R) proximity lets us know that price is getting close to a resistance line. Since we trade resistance breakouts (which are 20 pips beyond the proximity alert) this is an optional “heads-up” alert for SwingPRO.

Here is an example proximity alert:

Proximity Alert!

False break alerts are the best way to minimize your losses when swing trading.

Our “false break” rule can be understood as “if our trade is in the negative when the entry candle closes it is a false break”. For example if we enter short @ 1.25 at 11:32, then at 12:00 (when entry candle closes, in this case the 4h entry candle opened at 8:00) price is above 1.25 then it is a false break.

PipHut PRO automatically detects and alerts you when false breaks occur. To make sure your false break alerts are active check the false break alert checkbox as shown in the screenshot below. This checkbox can be found on the “Settings” tab of your PRO Dashboard.

Here is an example of a false break alert:

GBPUSD Update: We are closing our long on the false break alert at 1.56968 for -11.7 pips.

Daily Analysis and forecasts come out between 6a-8a UTC Monday through Friday – so before or early trading hours of London session.

This can flucuate slightly depending on market conditions (e.g. if there are no good setups during initial analysis or there is too much volatility) then we occasionally do an “intraday update” so that the whole trading day is not lost.

Entry signals for SwingPRO can come out any time of the day, but generally occur during the high volume London session. We also offer the SMS and smartphone integration for our signals so you don’t have to miss any trades.

All charts on PipHut are 4h charts from the UTC (gmt+0) timezone. We find the 4h timeframe is large enough to provide the reliability of long-term charts while giving us more entries than the daily or weekly charts, for example.

To set up SMS alerts, you just need to find your SMS gateway address, which typically takes the form of yournumber@cellco.com. Read our How to Setup SMS Alerts” guide.

If for some reason you cannot find your carrier here is an alternative for smartphone users, with desktop alerts.

Our list is by no means complete – there are thousands (if not more) of cell carriers around the globe and our list is just a sample of the largest ones. The easiest way to determine what your particular SMS gateway is to contact their customer support.

We can send an email to your cell company on your behalf, and will let you know if we hear back from them, but our history with contacting mobile phone providers is very poor in terms of response rates. We’ve seen the best response times/service if you contact them directly, to see if they both offer this service (email-to-sms), and then how to set it up (what you’re email-to-sms address is & if there is any setup required).

Each carrier has slightly different rules and some require you to turn on the feature.

If for some reason you cannot find your carrier there is an alternative for smartphone users here.

Yes! If for some reason you cannot find your carrier there is an alternative for smartphone users:

This can also allow you to bypass any charges that you may incur for incoming text messages – check with your carrier for more details.

We do not charge you for SMS alerts – it is an included service with your membership – but your carrier may still have a general charge for incoming text messages. This depends on your cellphone plan and your carrier.

If you have a smartphone you can usually bypass these charges with our smartphone/gmail alternative.

No. There is a lot of risk for you to allow an open connection to your trading platform, even if you trust the third party. It is akin to leaving your front door unlocked.

We do have very easy to follow signals. Most importantly, our swing system – which you learn for life – is profitable and proven.

All charts on PipHut use a UTC (GMT+0) timezone. Many retail brokers use a GMT+1, +2 or +3 timezone and this causes the high, low, open, close to be off for larger timeframes.

Don’t worry – the data is the same and you can still use our charts; if you want to be able to use UTC+0 charts too then there are plenty of brokers out there who offer free UTC+0 timeframe MT4 demo accounts.

We do not offer a free trial currently, but our monthly plans have no long term commitments so if you are not completely satisfied then just email us any time before your next bill date and we will cancel your membership. Since we still have customers from our initial launch in 2008 we are sure you will find our services profitable and strive every month for your satisfaction.

CandlePRO monitors 5 pairs across 5 timeframes (25 total different charts) for 14 different chart patterns, so signals are constantly being generated throughout the day.

When designing your CandlePRO system, you should take your desired trading times into consideration.

If you love to scalp then the 15m,30m and 1h charts may be your favorite.

Oh, yes. With 10-years of backtesting data, advanced formation strength intelligence, and the ability to test across multiple patterns/timeframes/pairs – CandlePRO will quickly help you construct a backtested and ready-to-use trading system.

Journal your trades with CandlePRO Journal.

Your CandlePRO journal is where you can save, view, and take notes on CandlePRO signals.

Let’s say, for example, you see a strong Bullish Engulfing signal on the 4h timeframe charts that you’d like to “test trade”. Simply select “save” next to the signal and it will be put in your Journal, along with any notes you want, for you to review later.

CandlePRO journal will also automatically tell you how that trade would have performed after 10 candles.

Pretty cool, eh?
