Setting Account Preferences and Notifications

Last updated on October 19, 2024

Tune FN Pulse to Match Your Workflow

Use the Preferences dashboard to control language, region, notifications, and saved tool presets. Set it once and enjoy a personalized experience across web and mobile.


Opening the Preferences Panel

  1. Sign in to your FN Pulse account.
  2. Click your avatar (top-right) and choose "Profile".
  3. Select the Preferences tab on desktop or the dropdown on mobile.

If you can’t see the tab, refresh the page or clear browser cache—preferences load after the first successful login.


General Preferences

  • Default Language: Choose the interface language (English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese). Entire site and help center update instantly.
  • Primary Region: Tailors broker lists, compliance notices, and leverage rules to your jurisdiction.
  • Default Trading Platform: Highlight preferred platforms (MT4, MT5, cTrader, proprietary) in broker comparisons.
  • Dark Mode: Toggle between light and dark themes; settings sync across devices.

Travel Tip

Switch regions temporarily when researching brokers in other jurisdictions—you’ll still receive alerts for your home region.


Notification Settings

  • Email Alerts: Broker rating changes, product updates, and weekly newsletters. Toggle each category independently.
  • In-App Notifications: Pop-up alerts for broker news, community replies, and tool updates. Use the bell icon to review history.
  • Push Notifications (mobile/PWA): Enable via system prompt to receive real-time alerts even when logged out.

Set quiet hours if you prefer fewer alerts outside trading sessions.


Tool & Data Preferences

  • Tool Units: Pick default measurement units—lots or units, pips or points, account currency. Applies to calculators automatically.
  • Saved Presets: Create named presets (e.g., "London Session", "Swing Trades") for calculators and economic calendar filters.
  • Watchlists: Manage broker watchlists and topic follows; reorder via drag-and-drop.

Presets back up to your account, so they travel with you between desktop and mobile.

Communication Preferences

  • Research Reports: Opt in to premium research digests, broker comparison updates, or AI feature announcements.
  • Community Highlights: Receive curated posts from Trader's Voice and top-rated reviews.
  • Survey Invites: Participate in upcoming feature research (optional).

You can unsubscribe from any category with a single click—no email confirmations required.


QA Checklist

  • Language and region selections persist after logout/login cycle.
  • Notification toggles update immediately without page refresh.
  • Calculator presets sync between desktop and mobile sessions.
  • Email preference changes reflected in next scheduled digest send.

Troubleshooting

  • Preferences not saving? Verify you’re online and not using a browser in private mode. Clear cache and retry.
  • Alerts feel noisy? Disable categories individually, or set quiet hours in the Notification section.
  • Wrong region content? Confirm VPN or location blockers aren’t forcing a different region.
