Signal format: full specification
The bot reads the post text and is deliberately flexible: it understands Russian and English words, different spellings of the pair and of the leverage. But parsing has strict rules worth knowing. This is the overall picture; every part of a signal has its own article.
Signal blocks
| Block | Required | Keywords (at the start of a line, case does not matter) | Value format |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pair | yes | #, pair, symbol | #BTCUSDT, #BTC/USDT, Pair: BTC/USDT. The pair must be traded on Bybit |
| Leverage | no | leverage, lev, плечо | 10x, x10, (10x), (x10), 10; a whole number from 1 to 999. No leverage means a spot signal |
| Margin | no | cross, isolated, кросс, изолированная — anywhere in the text | A subscriber can override it with their own setting |
| Entry type | no | breakout, пробой, брейкаут — anywhere in the text | Entry by a conditional order on a breakout. Without the word — a normal limit entry |
| Entry | yes | entry, entry targets, buy, вход, покупка | One or several prices, each on its own line |
| Targets | yes | tp, tp targets, take profit, take-profit, sell, цели, продажа | One or several prices, each on its own line |
| Stop | yes | sl, sl targets, stop, stop loss, stop-loss, stop targets, стоп | One price or a whole percentage of the average entry price: 82900 or 3% |
In detail: Pair and direction, Entries, Targets, Stop-loss, Leverage.
The main rules
| Rule | Explanation |
|---|---|
| A signal is a text post | The caption of a photo or a video is not read: such a post is skipped silently. Publish the picture separately and the signal as text |
| One post — one signal | Several signals in one message are not parsed |
| The keyword is at the start of a line | Emoji, bullets and dashes in front of it are removed automatically (🎯 Targets:, — Entry:). The first value may stand on the same line after the colon |
| Each level on its own line | Only the first number is taken from a line: 87000 / 88500 / 90000 gives one target, the range 85000-84200 gives one entry |
| Any order of blocks, each one once | TP: and Take profit: in the same post produce the error “More than one keyword found for …” |
| The only hashtag in the text is the pair | #signal, #entry and any other hashtags break parsing |
| Direction is determined from the prices | The words long / short are cut out and not taken into account |
| No leverage means a spot signal | For futures always specify leverage, for spot never do |
| Exactly one stop | Several stops are not supported |
| Numbering only with a separator after the number | TP1: 87000, 1) 87000, 1. 87000 are understood. TP1 87000 without a separator turns into 187000 — with no error |
| Lines with numbers inside a block are levels | Everything from a keyword up to the next one counts as levels. TF: 5m or RR 1:2 below the targets becomes a false level. Comments with numbers belong before the first block only |
| Other lines must not start with keywords | Levels:, Slippage:, Buy zone:, Sell zone: are taken by the bot as block headings |
| An edited post is not re-read | If you made a mistake, correct it with commands or publish a new signal |
Shares of entries and targets (percentages) are not written in a channel signal — they are distributed by each subscriber's own setting.

After a few seconds the buttons 👁 View signal / 📈 Open signal / ⚡ Enable auto-trading appear under the post (the Edit messages permission is required). No buttons — the reason comes to the channel owner as a private message: “⚠️ Post … in channel '…' was not accepted as a signal — no trades were opened. Reason: …”. The reason texts are covered in the articles about each part of a signal.
