7. Provide alerts with a reason. Share alerts with reasons and supporting evidence from primary sources, especially if the alerts are facts that have a high impact on the price movement such as an offering or Reverse split. For example, "ABC broke current support". Don't just type "ABC", instead type "ABC is moving up/down". Don't just type "ABC offering" without supporting link from primary source. Don't just type "ABC $2.10", instead type "ABC new low/high at $2.10". Avoid typing "ABC will run, ABC will fly to the moon, ABC will explode, ABC will pop" without supporting evidence from primary sources. Avoid "buy now, ABC will make you rich" without supporting evidence from primary source.

This also applies to other descriptive alerts that potentially have a high impact on the price share movement.
