Price / level alerts
A price or level alert is a message fired when a number you chose in advance is crossed. The agent watches; it does not interpret the alert as permission to trade. Levels, funding bands, peg breaks, and venue incidents are all alert jobs.
Jobs in this file: Written levels, liquidation clusters, funding extremes, stablecoin pegs, and venue status.

Price / level alerts FAQ
What should an alert contain?
The condition that fired, the value now, the threshold you set, the time, and the position or watchlist item it refers to. It should not contain a suggested order.
Can these playbooks auto-trade the alert?
No. Every alert playbook on this desk ends at a message a human reads. Wiring an alert into an order route is a different system, with different failure modes, and it is out of scope here.
How do you keep alerts from becoming noise?
Cap the count, require a written reason for each threshold, and review fired alerts on a schedule. Delete any alert you ignored twice.
