Quick Summary

What Is Investing.com?

Investing.com is a market data + news platform that covers stocks, ETFs, currencies, commodities, indices, bonds, and more. For this directory category, we care about one thing: Alerts — the system that notifies you when prices move or when important economic events are approaching.

Investing.com Alerts (The Core Feature)

Investing.com Alerts is built to keep you informed without constant monitoring. You can set customized alerts for instruments, choose economic events to be reminded about, follow authors, and manage everything via the Alerts Center.

• Customized price alerts: set your own thresholds and get notified when they trigger.
• Economic event alerts: get reminders for selected calendar events.
• Alerts Center + Alerts Feed: a single place to create, edit, delete, and review alert history.

Economic Calendar Reminders (Sneaky Useful)

This is where a lot of traders level up without realizing it. You can add an economic event and set reminder timing (for example, 60/30/15 minutes before). That’s huge for avoiding “why did it spike?” surprises.

• Pre-event reminders: pick your reminder timing before the release.
• Recurring option: keep the reminder on for repeated events.
• Less chaos: you stop getting blindsided by rate decisions, CPI, jobs reports, etc.

Notification Controls (So It Doesn’t Become Noise)

You can manage alerts and notification preferences inside the app (Alerts Center and notification settings). This is critical — because if you let it spam you, you’ll mute it… and then it’s worthless.

• Filter your Alerts Feed: view specific alert types (instrument, economic events, earnings, etc.).
• Choose delivery channels: enable/disable options like email and app notifications.
• Enable push notifications: turn on the categories you actually want.

Why Yield Raiders Care

• Cleaner entries: price alerts act like tripwires so you don’t chase.
• Fewer “gotcha” moments: economic reminders help you avoid event-driven whipsaws.
• Less screen addiction: you can stop checking prices every 7 minutes “just in case.”
• One hub: create/manage alerts from an Alerts Center instead of hunting through menus.

Watch-outs

• This is automation-lite: alerts notify you — you still decide and execute.
• SMS: standard alerts are not sent by SMS (use app/desktop/email delivery instead).
• Alert overload: keep it tight or it becomes noise fast.

Pricing & Access Info

• Pricing: Alerts are available with a free account; additional premium features exist elsewhere on the platform.
• Login Required? Yes (to create and manage alerts reliably).
• Upsells or Ads? Expect upsells within the broader platform; alerts themselves are meant to be usable without getting fancy.

Verdict: If you want dependable tripwires (price + economic events) and a clean Alerts Center to manage it all, Investing.com belongs in your Alerts & Automation stack.
