## 1. Set Your Webull Alerts in < 3 Minutes
| Ticker / Indicator | How to Add the Alert in Webull Desktop | Alert Condition |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------|-----------------|
| **US10Y** (10-Yr yield) | 1) Type “US10Y” in the upper-left search bar → choose “CBOE-US10Y” 2) Click the little alarm-bell icon next to the price | • “Price ≥ Prev Close + 0.18%” (hawkish shock) • “Price ≤ Prev Close – 0.10%” (dovish shock) |
| **TLT** | 1) Search “TLT” → open chart 2) Bell icon → “Create Alert” | • “Last ≤ → $_______” (current price – 1.30) • “Last ≥ → $_______” (current price + 0.80) |

## 2. Rapid-Fire Order Entry (Webull Desktop)
1. **Hot-key Prep (do this today)**
• Click Settings ⚙️ → “Hot Keys”
• Assign:
– `Shift + B` = Buy at Market, Qty = ⅓ normal size
– `Shift + S` = Sell Short at Market, Qty = ⅓
– `Alt + C` = Close Position (flatten)
2. **The 30-Minute Knee-Jerk**
• Alert fires → hit the hot-key (`Shift + B` or `Shift + S`) to enter the **probe**.
• Immediately open the **Positions** tab, right-click your TLT line → “Add Stop-Loss” → set at 0.25 pts.
• When price stalls / RSI flips, right-click again → “Close 50%” or use `Alt + C` if you’re flattening entirely.
3. **Mean-Reversion Flip**
• Press opposite hot-key to size up in the new direction.
• In the trade ticket that pops up, tab to **“Limit”**, enter your snap-back target (+$0.50–$0.70), hit Enter—Webull sends a resting take-profit.
⌨️ Practice the sequence once in paper-trading mode tonight so muscle memory kicks in tomorrow.

## 3. Adding to the Bond Ladder (If Yields Spike)
Webull supports full Treasury ladders via the “Fixed Income” tab (desktop) or “Bonds” on mobile.
1. **Click “Trade” → “Fixed Income”**
2. Filter: *“UST – Non-Callable, Maturity 2-5 yrs, Minimum 1k face”*
3. When US10Y ↑ ≥ 18 bp, select a 2028 note (≈ 4-yr), click *BUY*, quantity = face value you want (e.g., 10 = $10k).
4. Confirm. Repeat for rung-2 the next day if needed.
Tip: Webull shows the live “Yield-to-Worst” in that ticket—easy way to sanity-check you’re locking in the higher coupon.

## 4. Mobile Backup Plan 📱
• Tap *Watchlist* → “More” → **Custom Alerts** to clone the same price levels.
• Swipe left on TLT → *Trade* → choose *Quick Trade* for a two-tap market order if you’re away from the desk.

## Risk Guardrails (Webull-specific)
1. **Max Loss Switch** – Settings → *Risk Control* → set daily loss limit = 1 × your probe size.
2. **Color-coded P/L** – Turn on in *Preferences* so winners (green) / losers (red) pop instantly.
3. **Futures Parallel** – If you decide to hedge with TY/ZN, remember Webull’s margin on futures is separate; keep excess cash in the futures account or orders will reject.

### You’re Ready to Rock 🚀
Alerts will ping, hot-keys will execute, and stops will cap the downside—all inside the platform you already know. Trade the knee-jerk, then step back and decide if the ladder add is worth it. Easy, manual, and fully under your control.

😄 **Tiny follow-up:** On Webull, do you prefer the classic light theme or the black “midnight” chart background? (I can add contrast-friendly color cues next time!)
