01 / THE IDEA
What you can do here
In the dashboard implementation, the bell controls an App Messages panel populated with announcements. Opening it attempts to mark the latest shown message as read on the server and hides the badge locally. It is not the profile's category/stock/screener push-notification settings screen.
Read available account/app announcements from the terminal header.
Understand the read-state side effect before opening the announcement panel.
02 / THE SCREEN
A look inside App Messages
Historical capture
● ● ●App Messages / terminal capture
The image shows the header Notifications entry, not an open App Messages panel or unread-message contents.
03 / READ IT RIGHT
From numbers to understanding
01
The bell's unread badge refers to app announcements, not a count of new stock signals.
02
Opening the panel can change read state rather than being a purely passive preview.
03
A failed read-state update can allow the badge to reappear on a later load.
04
Outside-click or Escape closes the panel without configuring market-alert preferences.
04 / WORKED EXAMPLE
READ AN ANNOUNCEMENT
Illustrative walkthrough
Illustrative workflow: open the bell, read an available app message and close the panel. No announcement body or successful read-state change was observed or performed during this read-only guide research.
A practice scenario using a real instrument or account workflow, not an observed result or a recommendation.
