Freight Market Alerts

SONAR’s Alerts Management tool allows you to customize alerts to generate alerts regarding  changes within those data sets and markets that affect you most.

Select any of SONAR’s indexes to monitor, whether it is retail diesel fuel prices in a specific market, the volume of daily import shipments at a port, wait times at a railhead, or the volume of loaded twenty-foot intermodal boxes inbound to Chicago – you can set a customized alert to notify you. 

Set the conditions to receive an alert. Condition attributes include: 

  • Current Value
  • Change (Relative to Previous Value)
  • % Change (Relative to Previous Value)
  • 52-Week High
  • 52-Week Low
  • Volume
  • Daily, Weekly, Monthly and Yearly % Change

Select the operator and value for the conditional change alert. You can select multiple conditional attributes and operators for the same index alert:

  • Equal to
  • Less than
  • Greater than
  • Less than or equal to
  • Greater than or equal to

Set the alert to trigger only if all conditions are met or if any of a multiple are met, and even customize the message received for each alert.
