[alerts based on purchase price or set price]

Sorry, tried to edit this but couldn't.  I met to say...

I can't find a way to set an alert based on the purchase price or high price since purchase (trailing stop)... like sell when drops 10%.

I would also like to be able to set an alert if the price hits a specific price even if that may take days.

I can't figure out a way to do either.  I hope I'm just missing something.  I'm not always in/out the same day so alerts seem lacking some old features of QT.

I also don't know what "a recent high" in trailing alerts means.  What time frame?

[Latest Update broke MT, corrupted data?]

After applying the last update, MT came up briefly and gave me an error message about my data source Yahoo.  It had a long error message with information to report back to you.  I didn't really know how to capture it so I decided I would just exit and start MT again.  Bad mistake.  Now MT wouldn't start at all after repeated tries.  I finally found a leftover MT process and ended the task.  Now I can restart MT an duplicate the error.  I saved the error in a snip (.PNG) (is there a better way?) but can't find a way to attach it. The insert other media .. existing attachment ...is not available for my account?  I can't type the complete message but the error header is:

Unable to start streamer Yahoo (4) Req: MTSettings.ProcessNewsSources,Error: The file or directory is corrupted or unreadable

AppVer: 1.0.9766.438

The Dashboard loads but does not show my existing portfolios anymore (shows 0 when I have 2).

I was thinking of reloading MT but didn't know if there was a way to save my existing portfolio data file and reload/import it like the old QuoteTracker???  I just saw the import/export functions but don't know if my backup is now corrupted or if there are multiple backups.  For now I'll wait till I hear more.
