When it runs
Block alerts can arrive during and outside regular session hours (unlike halts, which are session-gated).
Why traders use it
- Dark-pool / block prints often show institutional size before the stock breaks out on lit volume.
- See notional, price range, and bid/ask side in one alert — faster than scanning time & sales.
- Combine with Whales (lit tape) for a fuller picture of size entering the name.

Notes
- Context text like above ask or below bid hints at aggressive vs passive placement; All-in-One may show directional arrows.
