An instant message through Yahoo can be redirected automaticticly to my cell phone an hour or two before needing to place the trade. Not all the news is worth trading. There wouldn't be much cost associated with it. And the only information I would need is which pairs, long or short and how many pips to try to gain, possible stop loss and so forth. It could be sent to your buddy list and if I was logged into messinger at the time, it would be a fast retrival of the information. If I was unable to get to my computer but the signal was sent to my cell phone I could always call my broker and place the trade.
I guess the point is that I can't see myself constatntly on my computer. And when I am there are other things I sometimes need to do than follow forex. I have a life to live as well. But, I'd hate to miss oppertunities.
