# Telegram usage
|
|
|
|
## Setup your Telegram bot
|
|
|
|
Below we explain how to create your Telegram Bot, and how to get your
|
|
Telegram user id.
|
|
|
|
### 1. Create your Telegram bot
|
|
|
|
Start a chat with the [Telegram BotFather](https://telegram.me/BotFather)
|
|
|
|
Send the message `/newbot`.
|
|
|
|
*BotFather response:*
|
|
|
|
> Alright, a new bot. How are we going to call it? Please choose a name for your bot.
|
|
|
|
Choose the public name of your bot (e.x. `Freqtrade bot`)
|
|
|
|
*BotFather response:*
|
|
|
|
> Good. Now let's choose a username for your bot. It must end in `bot`. Like this, for example: TetrisBot or tetris_bot.
|
|
|
|
Choose the name id of your bot and send it to the BotFather (e.g. "`My_own_freqtrade_bot`")
|
|
|
|
*BotFather response:*
|
|
|
|
> Done! Congratulations on your new bot. You will find it at `t.me/yourbots_name_bot`. You can now add a description, about section and profile picture for your bot, see /help for a list of commands. By the way, when you've finished creating your cool bot, ping our Bot Support if you want a better username for it. Just make sure the bot is fully operational before you do this.
|
|
|
|
> Use this token to access the HTTP API: `22222222:APITOKEN`
|
|
|
|
> For a description of the Bot API, see this page: https://core.telegram.org/bots/api Father bot will return you the token (API key)
|
|
|
|
Copy the API Token (`22222222:APITOKEN` in the above example) and keep use it for the config parameter `token`.
|
|
|
|
Don't forget to start the conversation with your bot, by clicking `/START` button
|
|
|
|
### 2. Telegram user_id
|
|
|
|
#### Get your user id
|
|
|
|
Talk to the [userinfobot](https://telegram.me/userinfobot)
|
|
|
|
Get your "Id", you will use it for the config parameter `chat_id`.
|
|
|
|
#### Use Group id
|
|
|
|
You can use bots in telegram groups by just adding them to the group. You can find the group id by first adding a [RawDataBot](https://telegram.me/rawdatabot) to your group. The Group id is shown as id in the `"chat"` section, which the RawDataBot will send to you:
|
|
|
|
``` json
|
|
"chat":{
|
|
"id":-1001332619709
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For the Freqtrade configuration, you can then use the the full value (including `-` if it's there) as string:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"chat_id": "-1001332619709"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Control telegram noise
|
|
|
|
Freqtrade provides means to control the verbosity of your telegram bot.
|
|
Each setting has the following possible values:
|
|
|
|
* `on` - Messages will be sent, and user will be notified.
|
|
* `silent` - Message will be sent, Notification will be without sound / vibration.
|
|
* `off` - Skip sending a message-type all together.
|
|
|
|
Example configuration showing the different settings:
|
|
|
|
``` json
|
|
"telegram": {
|
|
"enabled": true,
|
|
"token": "your_telegram_token",
|
|
"chat_id": "your_telegram_chat_id",
|
|
"notification_settings": {
|
|
"status": "silent",
|
|
"warning": "on",
|
|
"startup": "off",
|
|
"buy": "silent",
|
|
"sell": {
|
|
"roi": "silent",
|
|
"emergency_sell": "on",
|
|
"force_sell": "on",
|
|
"sell_signal": "silent",
|
|
"trailing_stop_loss": "on",
|
|
"stop_loss": "on",
|
|
"stoploss_on_exchange": "on",
|
|
"custom_sell": "silent"
|
|
},
|
|
"buy_cancel": "silent",
|
|
"sell_cancel": "on",
|
|
"buy_fill": "off",
|
|
"sell_fill": "off",
|
|
"protection_trigger": "off",
|
|
"protection_trigger_global": "on"
|
|
},
|
|
"reload": true,
|
|
"balance_dust_level": 0.01
|
|
},
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`buy` notifications are sent when the order is placed, while `buy_fill` notifications are sent when the order is filled on the exchange.
|
|
`sell` notifications are sent when the order is placed, while `sell_fill` notifications are sent when the order is filled on the exchange.
|
|
`*_fill` notifications are off by default and must be explicitly enabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
`balance_dust_level` will define what the `/balance` command takes as "dust" - Currencies with a balance below this will be shown.
|
|
`reload` allows you to disable reload-buttons on selected messages.
|
|
|
|
## Create a custom keyboard (command shortcut buttons)
|
|
|
|
Telegram allows us to create a custom keyboard with buttons for commands.
|
|
The default custom keyboard looks like this.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
[
|
|
["/daily", "/profit", "/balance"], # row 1, 3 commands
|
|
["/status", "/status table", "/performance"], # row 2, 3 commands
|
|
["/count", "/start", "/stop", "/help"] # row 3, 4 commands
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Usage
|
|
|
|
You can create your own keyboard in `config.json`:
|
|
|
|
``` json
|
|
"telegram": {
|
|
"enabled": true,
|
|
"token": "your_telegram_token",
|
|
"chat_id": "your_telegram_chat_id",
|
|
"keyboard": [
|
|
["/daily", "/stats", "/balance", "/profit"],
|
|
["/status table", "/performance"],
|
|
["/reload_config", "/count", "/logs"]
|
|
]
|
|
},
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
!!! Note "Supported Commands"
|
|
Only the following commands are allowed. Command arguments are not supported!

## Telegram commands in action
|
|
|
|
Below, example of Telegram message you will receive for each command.
|
|
|
|
### /start
|
|
|
|
> **Status:** `running`
|
|
|
|
### /stop
|
|
|
|
> `Stopping trader ...`
|
|
> **Status:** `stopped`
|
|
|
|
### /stopbuy
|
|
|
|
> **status:** `Setting max_open_trades to 0. Run /reload_config to reset.`
|
|
|
|
Prevents the bot from opening new trades by temporarily setting "max_open_trades" to 0. Open trades will be handled via their regular rules (ROI / Sell-signal, stoploss, ...).
|
|
|
|
After this, give the bot time to close off open trades (can be checked via `/status table`).
|
|
Once all positions are sold, run `/stop` to completely stop the bot.
|
|
|
|
`/reload_config` resets "max_open_trades" to the value set in the configuration and resets this command.
|
|
|
|
!!! Warning
|
|
The stop-buy signal is ONLY active while the bot is running, and is not persisted anyway, so restarting the bot will cause this to reset.
|
|
|
|
### /status
|
|
|
|
For each open trade, the bot will send you the following message.
|
|
|
|
> **Trade ID:** `123` `(since 1 days ago)`
|
|
> **Current Pair:** CVC/BTC
|
|
> **Open Since:** `1 days ago`
|
|
> **Amount:** `26.64180098`
|
|
> **Open Rate:** `0.00007489`
|
|
> **Current Rate:** `0.00007489`
|
|
> **Current Profit:** `12.95%`
|
|
> **Stoploss:** `0.00007389 (-0.02%)`
|
|
|
|
### /status table
|
|
|
|
Return the status of all open trades in a table format.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ID Pair Since Profit
|
|
---- -------- ------- --------
|
|
67 SC/BTC 1 d 13.33%
|
|
123 CVC/BTC 1 h 12.95%
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### /count
|
|
|
|
Return the number of trades used and available.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
current max
|
|
--------- -----
|
|
2 10
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### /profit
|
|
|
|
Return a summary of your profit/loss and performance.
|
|
|
|
> **ROI:** Close trades
|
|
> ∙ `0.00485701 BTC (2.2%) (15.2 Σ%)`
|
|
> ∙ `62.968 USD`
|
|
> **ROI:** All trades
|
|
> ∙ `0.00255280 BTC (1.5%) (6.43 Σ%)`
|
|
> ∙ `33.095 EUR`
|
|
>
|
|
> **Total Trade Count:** `138`
|
|
> **First Trade opened:** `3 days ago`
|
|
> **Latest Trade opened:** `2 minutes ago`
|
|
> **Avg. Duration:** `2:33:45`
|
|
> **Best Performing:** `PAY/BTC: 50.23%`
|
|
|
|
The relative profit of `1.2%` is the average profit per trade.
|
|
The relative profit of `15.2 Σ%` is be based on the starting capital - so in this case, the starting capital was `0.00485701 * 1.152 = 0.00738 BTC`.
|
|
Starting capital is either taken from the `available_capital` setting, or calculated by using current wallet size - profits.
|
|
|
|
### /forcesell <trade_id>
|
|
|
|
> **BITTREX:** Selling BTC/LTC with limit `0.01650000 (profit: ~-4.07%, -0.00008168)`
|
|
|
|
### /forcebuy <pair> [rate]
|
|
|
|
> **BITTREX:** Buying ETH/BTC with limit `0.03400000` (`1.000000 ETH`, `225.290 USD`)
|
|
|
|
Omitting the pair will open a query asking for the pair to buy (based on the current whitelist).
|
|
|
|
