Alert Format

Discord alerts use natural language parsing:

aapl short

Detailed Alerts

BTC long entry at 50000

close spy 675C/676C spread

Options with External Selection

For strategies using external selection, specify strikes:

buy SPY 675 put

Discord alerts are flexible. Use natural language that clearly indicates instrument, direction, and action.

Configuration Options

Monitor alerts from a specific user:

Enter their Discord username or ID
Only messages from this user trigger trades
Useful for single-source alert channels

Keyword Filter

Filter messages containing specific text:

Alerts must include the keyword
Case-insensitive matching
Useful for multi-purpose channels

Example Configurations

Dedicated Alerts Channel:

Channel: #alerts
Author: (none)
Keyword: (none)
Result: All messages in #alerts trigger parsing

Filtered by Author:

Channel: #trading
Author: SignalBot#1234
Keyword: (none)
Result: Only SignalBot's messages trigger parsing

Keyword Filtered:

Channel: #general
Author: (none)
Keyword: ALERT
Result: Only messages containing "ALERT" trigger parsing

Alert Validation

When validating Discord strategies:

Select actual messages from your channel
Map each message to an alert type (long entry, long exit, etc.)
System validates parsing and execution
Strategy activates once validation passes

Best Practices

Channel Organization

Use dedicated alerts channel
Keep alerts concise
Maintain consistent format
Avoid mixing alerts with discussion

Alert Clarity

Good alerts:

✅ "SPY long entry"
✅ "close short BTC"
✅ "AAPL 150C buy"

Unclear alerts:

❌ "thinking about SPY"
❌ "maybe close later"
❌ "spy???"

Exit Matching

For exits to match entries:

Use same instrument name
Specify direction being closed
System automatically finds open positions

Permissions

Limitations

Only servers where you're an admin

Troubleshooting

"Server not found"

Ensure:

You're an administrator in the server
Nyria bot is invited to the server
Server is not deleted or unavailable

"Channel not accessible"

Check:

Channel still exists
Nyria bot has access to the channel
Channel is a text channel

"Could not parse alert"

Include instrument name
Specify direction (long/short)
Indicate action (entry/exit/open/close)

"Multiple entries disabled"

Strategy doesn't allow multiple simultaneous positions. Wait for current position to close before new entry.
