Price Alert Check (Lightweight)

What problem does it solve?

This lightweight skill provides a fast, deterministic mechanism to act on price alerts without performing additional research or analysis, enabling quick decision-making in trading loops.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Automated watchlist alert checks: Scan all watchlist stocks against their target_entry prices using threshold_pct; if no alerts are found, exit quickly.
• Safety and decision logic: For each alerted stock, verify thesis and confidence, skip if there's an open order or confidence falls short, and evaluate risk before trading.
• Deterministic execution: For passing stocks, run risk checks, choose order types based on confidence, use bracket orders with take_profit and stop_loss, and place orders.
• Journal and traceability: Write a concise trade journal with which alerts fired, actions taken, and run_source.

Quick Start

Run check_watchlist_alerts(threshold_pct=2.0) to scan watchlist stocks against their target_entry prices.
