trader-news
News Monitor. Tracks breaking news on every stock you watch and flags what moves it: Yahoo Finance headlines per ticker, each company's 8-K filings on SEC EDGAR (earnings, CEO changes, deals, restatements, bankruptcy) and how far each stock is from yesterday's close. Shows only what is new since the last check, newest first, in New York time, tags each item (earnings, analyst, deal, halt, regulatory, macro...) and never repeats one. Use when the user says "any news on TSLA", "why is this moving", "what's the news on my watchlist", "morning briefing", "pre-market news", "monitor the news", "did anything break", "check the 8-Ks", or after /trader-scanner finds setups.

# trader-news
A chart can look perfect and still be about to gap on an earnings date, a
halt or a lawsuit. Before a setup becomes a trade, this skill reads the two
feeds that carry those first, for every stock on the watchlist, and tells you
only what is new. It also prints how far each stock has moved today, so a
headline and a move sit side by side.
