Price Alerts. Rings when a price target, a stop or the opening bell hits: above / below / stop rules, percent moves from the previous close, 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, fetches free delayed quotes (Yahoo chart JSON, Stooq CSV) one ticker at a time, and writes trader/prices.json for the other skills. Use when the user says "alert me when", "tell me if AAPL hits", "set a stop", "price target", "watch my stocks", "is the market open", "when does the market open", "get me prices", or to refresh prices before sizing, risk or tax.

# trader-alerts

Price Alerts watches the numbers so the user does not have to. An alert is
information, never an order: when a stop rings, nothing is sold. If the user
wants to act, the normal path runs (size, risk, their yes).

`${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}` below is this skill's folder (where this SKILL.md lives).
