3.6.3 Alerts & Notifications

• Price Threshold Alerts: Users can set “price crossing X or dropping below Y.”

• Breaking News: Aggregators like CryptoPanic or Twitter streams can push relevant memecoin updates.

• User-Defined Alerts: Each user sets thresholds in a UserAlerts table.

• If price crosses the threshold, the system triggers an email, push notification, or Socket.io event (priceAlert).

Pseudocode:

async function checkPriceAlerts(priceMap) {
  const alerts = await UserAlert.findAll();
  for (const alert of alerts) {
    const currentPrice = priceMap[alert.coinSymbol];
    if (alert.condition === 'ABOVE' && currentPrice > alert.targetPrice) {
      triggerAlert(alert.userId, alert.coinSymbol, currentPrice);
    }
    // ... handle 'BELOW'
  }
}
