Guide

How to automate Telegram alerts, step by step

Nyria's bot joins a Telegram group or channel you run as an admin that only reads. A call posted there, in the poster's own words, becomes an order in your broker account. This guide goes from the invite to a live bot.

What you need

  • A Nyria account with at least one connected broker.
  • Ownership of the group or channel, or admin rights there with the right to add admins.
  • The group or channel in that chat you want Nyria to read.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Connect Telegram and add the bot

    In a new strategy pick Telegram and select Connect Telegram. Press Start in the chat with @NyriaAlertsBot, then tap Link in its reply. Add Nyria to the group or channel as an admin; it asks for one right, manage chat, and only reads, never posts.

  2. 2

    Create the strategy and pick the chat

    Pick Telegram as the alert source and choose the group or channel. A channel's discussion group mirrors its posts, so point the strategy at the channel or its discussion group, never both, or one alert trades twice.

  3. 3

    Narrow it with an author or keyword filter

    Add an author filter to match part of the poster's display name, case-insensitive, so the strategy only acts on the caller who posts the calls. Add a keyword filter to match text anywhere in the message, case-insensitive, for a chat where alerts share space with other talk.

  4. 4

    Validate with the message preview

    Assign a real message to Long entry, Long exit, Short entry or Short exit, and Nyria shows what it parsed: the symbol, the side and, for options, the contract. The strategy stays inactive until it reads one correctly.

  5. 5

    Test on paper

    Deploy a bot on Nyria Paper first and let a real call fire. Check the order against the message on the bot's Logs tab.

  6. 6

    Go live

    When the paper orders match what you expect, deploy a second bot on your broker account. Start with a small budget per entry.

What a message can say

Nyria reads a call the way the poster already writes it, plain sentence or structured notation.

The size comes from the bot: each bot sizes every order from its own budget per entry, not from the message.

What Nyria reads out of a message

  • Nyria reads only the chat you picked, and only the author or keyword you filter on if you set one.
  • An edited message places no order. Post a new one instead.
  • An alert that reaches Nyria more than a minute after it was posted, or after a newer one, places no new entry. A close in it still runs, and the strategy log says why.
  • Messages other bots post in the same group are not read.

Questions

Does Nyria post in the chat?
No. Nyria joins as an admin with one right, manage chat, and only reads. It checks the chat when you save or re-activate the strategy and at least daily, and stops reading if it is removed.
What's the difference between a group and a channel?
A channel's discussion group mirrors its posts, so the same alert can show up in both. Point the strategy at the channel or its discussion group, never both.
Do I need to own the chat?
You need to be its owner, or an admin who can add admins. A chat you merely follow is not a source.
What if a message is edited or arrives late?
An edited message places no order; post a new one instead. An alert that reaches Nyria more than a minute after it was posted, or after a newer one, places no new entry. A close in it still runs, and the strategy log says why.
What does it cost?
Paper trading is free with no time limit, up to 10 paper bots. Live trading is $100 a month per $10,000 of total entry allocation, with no per-bot fees.
