Jeff, ex. you want to buy @ 35.5
low: 35 3/8
bid: 35 9/16
ask: 35 1/2
does this make sense? Will I get 3 pages?

.
If the price DROPS to say $34 yes you would get all three alerts.
As soon as a trade goes off at $35 3/8 or lower (even if the trade is a tape error) you get notified. ditto for when the Bid drops to 35 9/16ths or lower or the ask drops to 35 1/2 or lower.
.
I place a limit order to BUY, and then I put that price in as an ASK alert. As soon at the alert goes off --- 99 times out of 100 my trade also just went off.
