How this automation works

Automate your savings whenever a stock's price falls significantly. This Applet runs after markets close when your selected stock decreases by the percentage you set, sending you a notification and saving a specified amount to your Qapital goal. Perfect for investors who want to link market movements to smart, hands-off savings. Note: Install the IFTTT app on the device(s) where you want to receive notifications.
