adaptiveAbsolutely. I'll connect to market data APIs and set up your watchlist with multi-condition alerts. You can combine price targets, percentage moves, volume thresholds, and technical indicators into compound triggers. Each alert includes full context.
Smart Alert System Active
Monitoring 20 tickers with custom conditions
Done. Each alert email will include: current price, day change ($ and %), volume vs. 20-day average, RSI reading, MACD position, and nearest support/resistance levels. I'll also note if any other indicators are flashing signals on the same stock.

Email delivery with price, volume, RSI, MACD context

How to set up intelligent stock alerts in Adaptive
Add your watchlist tickers
Enter the stocks and ETFs you want to monitor. You can organize them into groups and set different alert conditions for each group.
Define your alert conditions
Set conditions in plain English: "AAPL drops more than 3% in a day," "NVDA volume exceeds 2x its 20-day average," or "any stock in my tech group has RSI below 30 and MACD crossing down."
Configure notification format and delivery
Choose what context to include in each alert (price, volume, indicators, support/resistance) and set up email delivery. Add the end-of-day digest if you want a daily summary.
Review and tune your conditions
As alerts fire, review the daily digest to assess signal quality. Tighten noisy conditions and loosen ones that never trigger. Adaptive helps you optimize by showing which alerts lead to meaningful moves.

An end-of-day email summarizing every alert that fired, with full context for each one. Review the day's signals in 2 minutes instead of scrolling through individual notifications.

Watchlist-wide scanning
Conditions can apply to individual stocks or entire watchlist groups. "Alert me if any of my biotech stocks gaps up more than 10% at open."
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about real-time stock quotes and alerts.
Alert speed depends on the data feed. With real-time market data APIs, alerts fire within seconds of the condition being met. With delayed feeds (typically 15 minutes), alerts reflect the delayed data. Delivery via email takes an additional few seconds.
The core alert system is designed for stocks and ETFs. If your connected data API provides options or futures data, you can set price-based alerts on those instruments too, though technical indicator support is optimized for equity data.
There's no hard limit on the number of alert conditions. Most users run 30–50 active conditions across a 15–25 stock watchlist without any performance issues.
You control the cooldown. By default, an alert fires once and then waits for the condition to reset before it can fire again. You can set a time-based cooldown (e.g., once per day) or require the condition to fully reset (e.g., RSI must go back above 40 before the "RSI below 30" alert can fire again).
Email is the primary notification channel. You can route alerts to any email address, including email-to-SMS gateways provided by your phone carrier. Direct Telegram integration is on the roadmap.
Yes. Alert emails can be sent to multiple recipients. You can set up shared watchlists where multiple people receive the same alerts with the same context.
