What happens after a signal is published
Seconds pass between a post in the channel and orders on your account. One signal produces many trades — one for each subscriber with auto-trade on — and every trade is different: its own amount, its own leverage, its own settings.
How it works
- The bot reads the text of the post and splits it into pair, leverage, entries, targets and stop (see How the bot reads a signal).
- If the signal is recognized, it is put under tracking and three buttons appear under the post (see Buttons under signal posts).
- For every subscriber whose bot is connected to the channel and who has Auto-trade on, a trade is created. Your trading settings are applied on top of the signal levels: entry amount, leverage (your own or from the signal), margin type, distribution across entries and targets, blacklist, simultaneous trade limit, the "no SL in the signal" policy.
- The bot places entry orders on the exchange at the signal prices. If the market has already passed the entry price in your favor, the entry fills immediately at market — you get “✅ Entry filled at a better price”.
- After the entry, the stop-loss and take-profits are placed. From then on the trade lives its own life: it is managed by the bot, not by the channel.
Subscribers with auto-trade off can open the trade manually with the 📈 Open signal button.
Where it is in the bot
- Notifications: “Signal recognized from channel "…"” with the breakdown (Coin, Position, Leverage, Entries, Targets, Stop-loss) and “Signal sent to bot "…"”.
- The trade: Main menu → 💼 Trades → the trade card. It contains the line “Source: automatic from …” with the name of the channel.
- The channel summary: Main menu → 📡 Signals — your own finished trades for each channel (TP, SL, Cancelled, WinRate).
Example with numbers
Signal: #BTCUSDT, Leverage: 10x, entry 30 000, target 31 000, stop 29 500. Your settings: entry amount — 5% of the balance, leverage — from the signal, balance 1 000 USDT.
- Trade margin: 1 000 × 5% = 50 USDT.
- Position size at 10x leverage: 50 × 10 = 500 USDT.
- Stop: from 30 000 to 29 500 — a 1.67% move; at 10x that is 16.7% of the margin, about −8.3 USDT.
- If the whole position closed at the 31 000 target: a +3.33% move, at 10x — +33.3% of the margin, about +16.7 USDT (fees not included).
A fellow subscriber with an amount of 200 USDT and their own 5x leverage will get different numbers — this is why results from one signal differ for everyone.
Why the trade might not have opened
| Reason | What to do |
|---|---|
| The simultaneous trade limit is reached | Raise the limit or wait for trades to close |
| The direction is switched off in the settings (LONG or SHORT) | Turn the needed direction on |
| The pair is on the blacklist | Remove it from the blacklist |
| A repeat signal for the same pair in the same direction | By design — see One signal per pair |
| No valid stop and the "Skip" policy is set | Enable the default SL or ask the admin to include a stop |
| One-Way mode: the pair already has an active trade | Wait for the first one to close |
| Not enough funds, or the amount is below the exchange minimum | Top up the balance or raise the trade amount |
| API keys are invalid or lack permissions | Update the keys in the bot settings |
Typical mistakes and what the bot says
- “⚠️ Signal not processed · Channel: «…» · Bot: «…» · Reason: …” — the signal was recognized but did not pass your filters; the reason is in the message.
- “Maximum simultaneous trades limit reached for bot "…". Signal from channel "…" skipped” — the trade limit.
- “Long trades are disabled in trading settings” — the direction is switched off.
- “Signal skipped: the LINEAR signal has no valid stop-loss and the bot is configured to skip such signals…” — the "no SL in the signal" policy.
- “Not enough available balance on the exchange to place the order. Top up your account or reduce the trade size/leverage.” — no funds.
- “⚠️ HIGH RISK: the trade is opened with 25x leverage…” — the trade is open, this is a warning about the leverage from the signal.
