Alert knowledge
Alerts should improve discipline, not noise
A good alert reminds investors to review a rule, source, or assumption rather than chase every price movement.
Thresholds should connect to a written action.
Example: allocation drift threshold triggers review.
- Mistake: setting alerts without knowing what to do.
Too many alerts make users numb.
Example: weekly summary for watchlist changes.
- Mistake: real-time alerts for long-term decisions.
