As users we found it difficult to understand the threshold preview for adaptive smart alerts shows as one line metric.
We would favour threshold shown as range above und below the actual metric line which would show the user the corridor of normal dispersal.
Outside this corridor would be abnormal and alertable values.

Hi,

If I understand correctly, you'd like to set x standard deviation both higher than and lower than at the same time in one alert?
I guess this theoratically even work with static thresholds, as it would be more the ability to select lower than and higher than operators at the same time.
This currently would be possible only in two separate Smart Alerts, but I will have a technical feasibility check with the team if this could be combined into just one Smart Alert configuration.
Please let me know if I understood what you are looking for with this idea :)
