Why did my Telegram trade alert place no entry?
A Telegram alert places no new entry when Nyria handles it more than a minute after it was posted, or after a newer message from the chat for the same strategy. A close in the alert still runs. This happens when Telegram delivers late after an outage, or when Nyria retries an alert it could not process. To take the entry, post the alert again.

Why an alert runs late
- Telegram can deliver messages late after an outage.
- Nyria retries an alert it could not process.
- When it cannot pass an alert on within 10 minutes, it stops retrying and the strategy log says so.
What a late alert still does
- It places no new entry.
- A close in it still runs.
- The strategy log says why.
Other reasons nothing traded
- The message was edited. Edits are not traded.
- Another bot posted it in a group. Nyria does not read those.
- It was posted before Nyria joined the chat.
