# Pivot Alerts
### What it does for you
[Pivot Alerts](https://www.edgen.tech/marketplace/crypto/pivot-alert) flag local tops and bottoms directly on the chart. Clear “Top” and “Bottom” markers show when a reversal is likely, so you can time entries and exits with more confidence. Instead of reacting late to candles, you see potential turning points as they form.
This makes short-term swings easier to trade and longer positions easier to manage.
### How it works
[Pivot Alerts](https://www.edgen.tech/marketplace/crypto/pivot-alert) runs on Edgen’s Momentum Analysis sub-agent. It scans price and volume in real time, applying EMA slope changes, volume fractals, and breakout/reversal heuristics. Each signal is assigned a confidence weight, then logged into the Edgen Knowledge Base. Reinforcement learning tracks how each call performs against later price action. Over time, probabilities are adjusted and pivot calls sharpen across cycles.
Every alert is reproducible: the underlying data, indicators, and heuristics are visible inside the system. Traders get both the call and the logic behind it, while engineers see how the model evolves.
