Price and Indicator Alerts

You can configure real-time alerts for price movements and technical indicator levels directly in Telegram using the bot @VarianTradeBot.

Setting Alerts

To set an alert, use the /alert command followed by your alert conditions in plain English. The bot uses a fast AI parser to extract the target asset, trigger condition, and threshold.

Supported conditions include price thresholds and technical indicators:

  • /alert BTC below 90000 (price drops below 90,000)
  • /alert EURUSD above 1.12 (price rises above 1.12)
  • /alert ETH RSI under 28 (RSI drops below 28)

Once confirmed, the bot will monitor the asset and notify you immediately when the condition is met.

Managing Alerts

To view and manage your active alerts, use the /alerts command. This will output a list of your configured alerts. You can cancel individual alerts or clear all alerts using the inline keyboard buttons:

  • Cancel: Deactivates a specific alert.
  • Cancel All: Deactivates all active alerts on your account.

One-Shot Reminders

In addition to price alerts, you can set one-shot reminders for specific actions or market scans.

Staging Reminders

Reminders are staged interactively within your chat. By telling the AI to set a reminder (e.g., “remind me Monday at 9am to check BTC” or “remind me in 2 hours to scan the market”), the bot parses the request and prompts you with a confirmation button. Reminders expire if not confirmed within 15 minutes.

Reminder Types

  • Signal Check: A standard reminder message prompting you to review current signals.
  • Opportunity Scan: A one-time automated scan of the market for trading setups executed at the designated time.

Controlling Notification Preferences

You can customize what notifications you receive to prevent alert fatigue.

  • Proactive Signals Toggle: You can enable or disable proactive signal alerts via your settings menu (using the “Enable alerts” or “Mute alerts” options).
  • Mute Safety Exceptions: Toggling off proactive signal alerts will not mute reminders you explicitly requested, daily market briefs, or critical account/security updates. These essential messages bypass the mute setting.
