These are thinly traded stocks (< than 50k/day) so the normal calcs that are part of the running up/down alerts may not be serving you as well in these 'waters'.

The Stocks Like This tool we have can provide some other options. Here is what we reported for MEW.UN.CAT for the 5 minutes beginning at 10:20 on Monday:

I see the intermediate alert you mentioned. But I would add or replace it in the future with alert like the Standard Deviation alert (BT) or even the trailing stop down alert which factors in the volatility aberration such drop moves exhibit.
