A past alert, rebuilt in TickerRoom's own components to show the format — illustrative, not live market data. The delayed feed shows real ones, 15 minutes after they fire.

What puts a message in this channel

  • Minute volume runs far above that ticker's own average
  • A breakout, momentum, reversal or bottom pattern is detected — the reason tag names which
  • Float, market cap and relative volume are attached so the move can be sized immediately
