Guide
How do I get notified when a trading bot's order fails?
Nyria records every notification in the app, under the bell and on the Notifications page. A failed trade shows there, but it only reaches your email if you turn on Trades email, which is off on a new account. Broker disconnects email by default. Open Account, find Notification preferences, and set In-app and Email for each of the four categories. The bot's log records every failure either way.
Official documentation
Turn on failed-trade emails
- 1
Open your account
Select Account in the app and find Notification preferences.
- 2
Find the Trades row
Each category has two switches: In-app and Email. Trades starts with Email off.
- 3
Switch Trades email on
Failed trades and rejected exits now reach your inbox as well as the bell.
- 4
Keep Brokers email on
A disconnected broker blocks every order on that account, exits included. Brokers email starts on.
- 5
Check the bell
Select a notification to jump to its source, usually the bot's log with the row expanded.
The four categories
- Trades: fills, rejections and exits from your bots and strategies.
- Brokers: a broker that disconnected, reminders to reconnect, and orders the broker accepted and then rejected.
- Subscriptions: new members, and strategy access that ended.
- System: billing, setup reminders, and the warning when a strategy stops receiving alerts.
What a new account starts with
- In-app is on for every category.
- Email is on for Brokers, Subscriptions and System, and off for Trades.
- Billing emails are sent even when System email is off.
How often it emails
- If the same failure keeps happening for the same reason, you get one notification a day about it.
- When many failures happen at once, Nyria sends at most one email a minute. The rest are on the Notifications page.
- Every email ends with an Unsubscribe link that turns off email for that one category.
Questions
- Does every failed order send a notification?
- No. Only flagged failures notify you. The bot's log records all of them.
- Why did I get no email for a failed trade?
- Trades email is off on a new account. Turn it on under Notification preferences on the Account page.
- Where do broker rejections show up?
- An order the broker accepted and then rejected appears under Brokers.
- Can I turn off one category without losing the rest?
- Yes. Each category has its own In-app and Email switches, and the Unsubscribe link in an email affects only its category.
- What does it cost?
- Paper is free. Live trading from $15 a month.
