Price alerts for UZSE stocks, preferred shares and bonds

Checking prices by hand every day is tiring, and on a market where many securities trade only now and then it is easy to miss the one day that matters. Finmind's price alerts watch a share or bond for you and send a notification when the condition you set is met.

This guide explains what you can set, how often alerts are checked, how preferred shares and bonds are handled, where notifications arrive, and what the feature costs.

What a Finmind price alert can watch

Alerts live on the Alerts page in the app, under the title "Smart Alerts". Each alert combines one security and one rule. The rules are:

• Price above/below a threshold. Fires while the price is above or below your level at the latest check.
• Price crosses a level. Fires once when a check finds the price has crossed your level since the previous check. You can limit it to up only or down only.
• Day move exceeds %. Fires when today's change reaches your percentage. A share that has not traded today does not fire it.
• Move over a window exceeds %. Fires when the price has moved that much over a trailing window of days you choose, from 2 to 365.
• Volume spike. Fires when today's volume is at least a multiple you set (greater than 1) of the average daily volume over a trailing window.
• New 52-week high or low. Fires when the price tops (or drops below) every stored close of the last year.
• New all-time high or low. Fires when the price tops (or falls below) every close Finmind has on record for that security.
• Price crosses its SMA. Fires when the price crosses its simple moving average over the number of days you set.
• New disclosure published. Fires when a new corporate disclosure lands for the company.

The history rules are honest about the data behind them. If less than a full year of closes is stored, a 52-week alert says so plainly and names the sessions it actually compared. An all-time alert names how many sessions it checked and how far back they reach, so "all-time" always means all the history Finmind holds.

Preferred shares and bonds

When you create an alert, the security picker searches every listed security by name, ticker or ISIN: common shares, preferred shares and bonds. Each result carries a badge that says Stock, Preferred or Bond. For a bond, the picker shows its par value and when it last traded instead of a price.

Preferred shares

A preferred share is priced from its own ISIN. Finmind never uses the common share of the same company to decide whether your preferred-share alert should fire, so the two can move differently without confusing your alerts. Preferred shares support every rule. The disclosure rule needs an issuer on file at openinfo.uz; if there is none, that rule is simply not offered.

Bonds

Bonds support three rules only: price above/below a threshold, price crosses a level, and day move exceeds %. The reason is practical. Most UZSE bonds trade only a few days a year, so rules that compare against a run of trades (window moves, volume spikes, 52-week and all-time extremes, SMA crosses) would have nothing to compare against. Disclosures are filed by the issuer, not by one of its bonds.

Two details matter when you set a bond alert:

1. The level is the traded price in UZS per bond, as the exchange reports it, not a percentage of par. Where the par is known, the form shows it with an example so you can convert.
2. A bond with no trade in the last 30 days is not checked. The alert shows "No recent price" instead of staying silently unfired, so you know why nothing has happened.

If you want to understand how a bond's price relates to its coupon and yield before choosing a level, read bond yield, coupon and price.

How often alerts are checked

Alerts are checked every 10 minutes. On weekdays, from the 09:30 open (Tashkent time) until the day's closing snapshot is taken at 17:00, a check reads the exchange's latest print, which can lag trades by a few minutes. At other times it reads the latest 17:00 snapshot.

Every alert has a cooldown: the minimum gap, in minutes, between two notifications from the same alert. The form suggests 1,440 minutes (one day). A shorter cooldown means more messages while a condition stays true; a longer one keeps your inbox quiet.

The alert list shows each alert's state (active or paused), its cooldown, when it last triggered and when it was created. You can pause, activate, edit or delete any alert at any time.

How to create an alert

1. Sign in and open Alerts.
2. In the "New alert" form, search for a share or bond by name, ticker or ISIN and pick it from the list.
3. Choose an "Alert rule". Only the rules that fit the security are offered.
4. Fill in the rule's fields: a threshold in UZS, a percentage, a window in days, a volume multiple or a direction, depending on the rule.
5. Set the cooldown, or keep the suggested one.
6. Press "Create alert". The alert appears under "Your alerts" as active.

Where notifications arrive

When an alert fires, Finmind delivers it through the channels you have switched on in Settings, under Notifications, Channels:

• In-app: the bell menu in Finmind. This channel is on by default.
• Telegram: a message from the Finmind bot to your linked Telegram chat. It is off by default and needs a connected chat.
• Email: a message to your Finmind account email. It is off by default.

If you use Telegram, the bot's /alerts command lists your alerts and their state, and the Mini App has a Price alerts screen where you can see them and create a simple above or below alert. See the Finmind Telegram bot and Mini App for how to connect a chat.

Are price alerts free?

No. Price alerts are a paid feature. On Finmind you buy each paid feature on its own, for a period, rather than a bundle. The current price is shown on the Features page in the app, and the bot's /features command lists it too. What stays free: the public stock and bond pages, the portfolio, the simulator and the market-wide order book. See what paid features add for the full picture.
