In this guide: What Smart Alerts does · Quick start · Related features

Smart Alerts tell you when a prediction market you watch, or a wallet you follow, starts to move. You set the rules once on the Lines.com Alerts page. Lines.com then watches the market and sends the alert. Prediction market alerts suit anyone tracking an election, a game, or a crypto price. You choose email, push, or both. This guide covers what Smart Alerts does and how to set your first one.

Key takeaways

  • Smart Alerts watches the markets on your watchlist and the wallets you follow on Lines.com.
  • Three core triggers cover most needs: price movement, volume surge, and resolution proximity.
  • Global Defaults apply everywhere. Per-market and per-wallet overrides fine-tune a single market or wallet.
  • Every alert goes to email, push, or both. You choose per alert.
  • Alerts are informational. Smart Alerts reports what a market does, not what you should do.

What Smart Alerts does

Smart Alerts watches every market on your watchlist and every wallet you follow. You set alerts on the Alerts page. Three core triggers cover most needs.

Alert typeFires whenDefault threshold
Price movementA market’s price moves past your threshold.10% in 24 hours
Volume surgeTrading volume beats the market’s recent average.3x the weekly average
Resolution proximityA market gets close to resolving.24 hours before

The Alerts page also carries more alert types. You can group them by job:

  • Content: a new Lines.com article on a market you follow.
  • Digests: a daily digest at 8am ET, and a weekly roll-up on Mondays.
  • Whale alerts: a big bet on your market, or when followed wallets converge or split on an outcome.

The deep-dive guide covers every alert type, threshold, and quiet-hours control.

Lines.com delivers every alert to email, push, or both. You pick the channels per alert. Global Defaults apply to all markets and wallets. A per-market or per-wallet alert overrides the default for one market or one wallet.
