What it does
Price Alerts. Rings when a price, a stop or the opening bell hits. Turns the trade plan into three alerts in one go (the stop, the target and "flat by close" at your flat-by time), plus above / below / stop / target levels, percent moves from the previous close, any time of day, and the NYSE opening bell, each ringing once so you are not spammed. Knows NYSE hours with the 2026 and 2027 holidays and 1:00 p.m. early closes, works out New York time itself, fetches free delayed quotes (Yahoo chart JSON, Stooq CSV) one ticker at a time, and writes trader/prices.json for sizing and the risk check. Use when the user says "alert me when", "tell me if TSLA hits", "watch my stop", "watch my trade", "remind me to close by 3:55", "is the market open", "when does the market open", "get me a price", or right after /trader-exit writes a plan.

Price Alerts watches the numbers so the user does not have to stare at a chart. An alert is information, never an order: when a stop alert rings, nothing is sold by this skill. With a bracket order the stop-loss and the take-profit already sit at the broker and do the work; the alerts tell the user what happened and when it is time to be flat.
