Between a bot and a spreadsheet.
easiTrades sits in the gap: the discipline of automation, without giving up control of the trade.

vs. auto-trading bots
Bots take the trade — and the control. Most run canned strategies you can't fully see. easiTrades runs your rules and leaves the click to you, so a glitch or a bad fill is never irreversible.
vs. price alerts
An alert says "it moved." easiTrades says "add 47 shares at $211.25, here's why, and it fits your caps." It carries the whole decision, not just the nudge.
vs. a spreadsheet
Your spreadsheet can hold the rules, but it can't watch the market or do the math in real time. easiTrades is the spreadsheet that stares at the tape for you and emails the answer.
