Cool app! my SO was asking me for something very simple to use, will ask her to give this a try. Is it required to be linked to an actual broker, or can you get limited messages from some other public data feed? For example, get alerts on price movements

Also, side note she uses Robinhood, not sure if there's plans to add that at some point

Absolutely, you don't need to have a brokerage account to use Trigger. You can just set alerts to get notifications on events and price movements you care about, but also track the performance of how you would have done if you sold or bought a stock at that time.

Re-robinhood, we are in line to get access to their API, and it will be the next broker we chose to integrate with. You can potentially have free algorithmic trading from your phone!
