Logged out after clearing cookies, or on a new device? Tap Already a member? Enter your key under the Pro card on the board, or open https://sector-pulse.app/?key=YOUR-KEY on Android or desktop Chrome. Your key is in your welcome email.

iPhone or iPad: open the app in Safari without entering your key yet. Tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. Open it from your home screen, tap the Sector Pulse logo five times, enter your key, then tap the bell and allow notifications. Entering the key in Safari itself spends a device slot on a browser Apple will not let receive alerts, which is why the order matters.

Android, Chrome, Edge, or Brave: open the app with /?key=YOUR-KEY on the end of the URL and you are in. Tap the bell to allow notifications. To keep it as an app, use the browser menu and Add to Home screen. Everything carries over.

Safari on Mac: the same link unlocks the site, but Safari will not allow notifications from a browser tab. Use Chrome for desktop alerts, or File then Add to Dock, and turn on the bell in the dock app.

Three at a time. Phone, tablet, and a desktop browser covers the usual setup. A fourth device replaces the one you used least recently, so nobody is left locked out over it.

No. Both addresses stay live, and your app, key, devices and alerts keep working where they are. Use sector-pulse.app for any new device; your key works there the same way.

Deleting the app clears the token stored on that device, and reinstalling registers as a new device. Enter your key once more and it replaces the device you used least recently. If the app is working, there is never a reason to reinstall it.

Force-close the app and reopen it from the home screen icon. iOS suspends the push connection on apps it has not seen in a while, and a cold open re-establishes it. If two cycles pass with nothing after that, email support and the subscription gets checked from this side.

The 8:30 ET pre-open digest, the 9:45 open snapshot, live pings when a sector or a single name rips on real volume, level alerts when a name crosses yesterday's high or low on heavy volume or gaps over that level and holds it (breakouts scan the first hour, breakdowns through the morning, because that is where the record says they hold), rotation velocity moves when a sector climbs the board fast, board-wide risk turns, and the close recap with after-hours movers at 5. Every alert is also re-readable in the app under the movers list, today live and past days from the day picker, each past alert with its move an hour on and at the close, and every name alert opens on its own 5 minute chart with the level drawn, so nothing is lost to a cleared lock screen. Each breakout and breakdown shows its sector's rank on the board when it fired, and the alert settings can limit breakouts to leading sectors. One default worth knowing: breakdowns below yesterday's low start switched off, so the short side stays quiet until you turn it on in Alert settings. Names entering the top 5 before the open show in the feed and the 8:30 digest but do not push; the record says pre-open entries rarely hold. Reversals, a name that swung hard away from yesterday's close and crossed back on real volume, show in the feed only and never push; they start switched off, and the gear turns them on.

Quiet is the system working. The engine has daily caps and cooldowns precisely so a slow tape does not turn into a stream of noise you learn to ignore. On a day with real rotation you will hear it. Alerts get tuned daily, and more alert features are being developed.

Yes. The gear on the alerts feed opens Alert settings, where you filter by direction (breakouts or breakdowns), by type (surges, levels) and by basket, so the phone only buzzes for the part of the board you trade. That is also where you turn breakdowns on, since they start off for everyone. Founding members steer what gets built next, so say your piece in the Discord.

By how the whole basket moves, not by one bellwether name. Each of the 30 baskets is ranked against the other 29 on its aggregate session move, with breadth shown alongside so you can tell a broad move from one name carrying the group. The Live view is session-aware and re-bases at the 4pm close; the 4pm close view stays fixed on the regular session so it does not drift during after-hours.

Every sector's rank path across the last 10 sessions or the last month, three ways: tiles, a table, and Trails, where every sector is a line of its compounded move from the first day of the window. It answers what a single day cannot: who has been climbing, who has been fading, and how long the move has been building. The record has been written daily since July 31 and cannot be backfilled. 10D, 1M and 2M are open; 3M opens as the record grows deep enough to hold it. Trails can draw SPY, QQQ, IWM or DIA on the same scale, so a sector's move reads against the market.

Rank and price disagree over the window. A sector climbing hard while it is still down on the period means money is rotating in while the tape bleeds, which is relative strength. It is a label on visible arithmetic, not a prediction, and it is styled neutrally on purpose.

The US session is an afternoon and evening window from Europe. The pre-market digest lands at 14:30 CET, the opening snapshot at 15:45 CET, surge and rotation alerts run through the session until the 22:00 CET close, and the after-hours digest arrives at 23:00 CET. When daylight saving changes on different dates, every slot is an hour earlier for a few weeks. The full session in CET.

No. The board reads the tape itself and ranks the 30 baskets every few minutes from the first pre-market print, so the afternoon setup is visible from Europe before the open. Members get the names, the alerts and the ten day and one month views; the free board works the same from any country.

$12/mo founding rate, locked while spots last, for the first 50 founding members. After the founding 50 it is $29/month. Locked means locked: if you are in at $12 you stay at $12 through every later increase, for as long as you stay a member. Cancel anytime. A seat is one email: if you are buying for someone else, check out with their email so the key lands in their inbox.

The alert layer, every name in every basket with no daily limit, all 20 movers unmasked and ranked live, the sector climbers by name, the leader and not-moved marks inside every green basket, the five-minute chart under every name in a sector with session VWAP and the day's volume against its usual pace, the rotation history, 10D, 1M and 2M with the Trails view, every alert re-readable in the app, and the founding Discord where members steer the roadmap. The grid itself is free, no signup: every sector, its rank and breadth, every name's move, and the names with their daily charts in 3 baskets a day. Each sector's own page lists every name in it.

Two. The free guides answer the beginner questions (how to find stocks in play, how to learn sector rotation) with the routine. Members have Reading rotation: five short reads on how the board is read, each on a dated day from our own record.

The founding rate is the rate, for everyone, and it is locked for as long as you stay. What a group gets is this: invite five trading friends from the Pro card on the board, each of them gets one email from me with their own link, and your first month is free once the first of them opens the board. Every friend who goes Pro from their link gets the founding rate, locked. Members already have the same thing in the PRO sheet: your referral link, and a free month for every friend who goes Pro from it.

Yes, two. A short pre-market read lands on the Sector Pulse YouTube channel before the open, and a recap after the close: the strongest and weakest baskets, the names that led them, and one thing to take from the board. On Sundays the free Discord gets a weekly rotation post: the five sessions as lines, the baskets that climbed and fell the most, against SPY. Past days, not forecasts.

Yes, as its own tier: the live board, versioned rosters, and full daily history, programmatic, and the same three tools for Claude, ChatGPT and agents. Keys are paid: call packs from $10 for 2,000 calls (credits never expire), or a founding API spot at $39/month with a Pro membership included; existing Pro members add it for $27/month. See the API docs for endpoints and examples. It also works alongside TradingView's MCP server in the same Claude session; three paste-ready prompts are on the API docs page.

The member channels are gated behind the Founder role, which gets assigned by hand after you join. If you are a paying member and the channels are still locked, post in the general channel or email support and the role goes on within the day.
