Notifications
In-app history for alerts, trade ideas, and commentary
The Notifications inbox is the paper trail inside the browser for things your Alerts already fired on: matching option prints, new Trade Ideas, new Market Commentary posts, flow acceleration events, and insider & Congress filings you follow. Email, SMS, Slack, Discord, push, and webhooks are parallel channels—they can carry the same event when you enable them. The inbox is for when you want a scrollable history on the site without digging through email threads.
Use it to answer: “What triggered, when, and under which rule?”—then open the underlying symbol or feed if you need more context.
Availability: Active paid subscription required to open the web inbox. Alert-driven mobile/push notification workflows require a plan with Alerts Management.
Open the inbox
- Web: Sign in and open Notifications in the sidebar (under Desk), or click View all in the top-bar bell dropdown.
- The bell: the top-bar bell shows an unread badge on every page, and its dropdown lists your most recent notifications with Enable browser notifications, Manage alerts, and View all shortcuts.
Items are sorted newest first, 50 per page, with Highest Return and Current Return columns when enough post-alert price data is available. Those returns describe what happened after the alert; they are not your brokerage P&L.
Filters and read state
The filter panel narrows the inbox by status (all, unread, read), stream (Option alerts, Trade ideas, Commentary, Flow acceleration, Insider & Congress), age, and a specific alert rule; a symbol search finds a name across your recent history. Each row has a read toggle, and Mark all read clears the currently filtered view.
What you will see
Each row ties back to one alert rule you created and summarizes what matched at trigger time:
| Source | Typical content |
|---|---|
| Option alert | Symbol, contract context, premium, unusual score—matching Alerts Management |
| Trade idea | Symbol, direction, strategy, levels—matching Trade Ideas |
| Market commentary | Headline, category, severity, symbols—matching Market Commentary |
Each item links back to the relevant source context when available.
Browser (live) updates
While you are on the site, the inbox and the bell badge update in the background (no page reload) when new items arrive. If you click Enable browser notifications in the bell dropdown and grant permission, new alerts also appear as native desktop notifications—clicking one focuses the Optionomics tab.

If something looks wrong (duplicate fires, missing push), check cooldown on the alert and that the channel toggles are saved on the alert form.
