Volatile Warning (2%-5%)
⚠️ FX Rate Volatility Detected
The NGN/XLM rate has shifted 3.00% since your quote.
Please review the updated rate.
[User can proceed freely]
Critical Alert (>5%)
🔴 High FX Rate Volatility
The NGN/XLM rate has shifted more than 6.00%.
This is a significant change.
☑ I acknowledge the rate volatility and accept the current rate
