Pipe signals to Alerts

Send every future USDⓈ-M signal from a source to your push / Telegram / email / webhook channels. Per-source delivery rules, side filters, symbol whitelist, and quiet hours.

The alert pipe is the non-execution alternative to Auto Trade. Subscribe a signal source and you'll receive a notification — Telegram, web push, browser-tab toast, email — every time a new signal fires from that source. Use it when you want manual control over execution, or when you want to be informed about a source you're not (yet) ready to autotrade.

Alerts pipe dialog

How it differs from indicator alerts

Aspect	Indicator alert	Signal source alert
Trigger	Your own indicator setting crosses a threshold on a specific symbol.	A pre-built signal source emits a signal on any symbol it scans.
Symbol scope	One symbol per alert.	All symbols the source covers (filterable).
Configuration	You define the indicator + threshold.	You pick the source + side.
Best for	Personal setups ("RSI 5m crosses 30 on BTCUSDT").	Following a curated signal stream.

Indicator alerts are documented in Alerts → Indicator alerts. This page is about signal-source alerts.

From the signal detail dialog

Click any signal in the live feed.
In the detail dialog, click Set Alert.
The alert subscription dialog opens, pre-filled with the source, timeframe, and side.

From the Alerts page

Subscription fields

Field	Notes
Source	Required. Same options as for autotrade pipe.
Timeframes	Multi-select. E.g. `5m + 1h`.
Sides	Long / Short / Both.
Symbol whitelist	Optional. If set, alerts fire only for these symbols. Empty = all.
Symbol blacklist	Optional. Skip these.
Channels	Multi-select. Web push / Telegram / Email / Webhook / In-app toast. See Alerts overview.
Quiet hours	Optional. No alerts during specified hours (your local TZ).
Quiet days	Optional. No alerts on specified weekdays.
Throttle	Default = no throttle. Optional: max 1 alert per X min per symbol. Helps when a source emits multiple correlated signals quickly.
Include AI summary (Ultimate only)	Embed a 2-3 line AI explainer summary in the alert text.

Delivery latency targets

Channel	Target latency from signal generation
In-app toast	< 200 ms
Web push	1-3 s
Telegram	2-5 s
Email	30-60 s
Webhook	< 500 ms

If a channel consistently exceeds these latencies, see the per-channel docs (Telegram delivery, Web push).

Plan limits

Plan	Max signal-source alert subscriptions	Max alerts per day total
Master	5	100
Premium	25	1000
Ultimate	Unlimited	Unlimited

Hitting the daily cap pauses NEW alert delivery until the cap resets at 00:00 UTC; existing scheduled alerts still fire.

Snooze

In the alert dialog header, a Snooze 1h quick-action pauses delivery for an hour. Useful when a source is firing too frequently and you want a break without unsubscribing.

Common pitfalls

Pitfall	Fix
Subscribed all sources + all timeframes → 200+ alerts/day → notification fatigue.	Start with one source on one timeframe. Add more only after you adapt.
No quiet hours → woken at 03:00 by an ATOMUSDT 5m signal.	Set quiet hours. Or subscribe only to 1h+ timeframes.
Webhook URL leaks → spammers send fake signals to your downstream system.	Verify the HMAC signature on every webhook receipt.
Email-only on a fast 5m source.	Email lags by 30-60 s; useless for 5m signals. Use push or Telegram instead.
