# alert_too_old

> Signal webhook: the alert is older than the webhook's max alert age.

Source: https://tickwire.io/docs/errors/alert_too_old/

HTTP 422. Nothing reached the broker.

**Likely causes:**

- TradingView delivered the alert late.
- The alert's time is wrong, or the alert was sent again much later.

**What to do:** Nothing was sent. Raise max_alert_age_s if late alerts should still trade.

**Retry:** No. The same request gets the same answer; change something first.
