Signal Bot Channel Setup Guide

Comprehensive guide for setting up Telegram channels, creating profiles, and configuring Risk-Free and TP Ladder for Signal Bot.

1. Overview

Signal Bot setup consists of three main steps:

  1. Connect Telegram Channel: Enter channel username or invite link
  2. Configure Parser: Select parser type and processing rules
  3. Default Settings & Risk: USD per trade, SL/TP/Leverage, and Risk-Free/TP Ladder

2. Step 1: Connect Channel

To connect a Telegram channel:

  1. Click the "Add Channel" button
  2. Enter the channel username (like @channel_name) or invite link (https://t.me/+invite)
  3. After successful connection, the channel appears in the list
Note
To connect to a channel, the Bot must be a member of the channel. Make sure the EnterEdge bot is added to your channel.

3. Step 2: Configure Parser

The Parser is responsible for extracting trade information from channel messages:

  • Regex Parser: Uses regex patterns to identify Symbol, Side, Entry, TP, and SL
  • AI Parser: Uses artificial intelligence to understand and extract information from messages

After selecting the parser type, you can configure processing rules or use default patterns.

4. Step 3: Default Settings & Risk

In this step, you need to configure the following settings:

  • USD per Trade: Dollar amount for each trade
  • Connection: Select exchange connection (API)
  • SL/TP/Leverage: Default values (optional - if not in the signal)
  • Risk-Free: Enable automatic Break-Even
  • TP Ladder: Enable ladder Take Profit system

5. Parser Types

Regex Parser

Using regex patterns, you can identify different parts of messages. This method is suitable for channels with fixed message formats.

  • Customizable and configurable
  • High processing speed
  • Requires regex knowledge

AI Parser

Uses artificial intelligence to automatically understand messages. Suitable for channels with variable message formats.

  • Automatic understanding of different formats
  • Minimal configuration needed
  • May require corrections in some cases

6. Default Settings

Default settings are applied when the signal doesn't have the corresponding field:

USD per Trade

Dollar amount used for each trade. This amount is converted to contract quantity.

Stop Loss (SL)

Default Stop Loss value. Can be entered as percentage (e.g., 2%) or exact price.

Take Profit (TP)

Default Take Profit value. Similar to SL, can be percentage or price.

Leverage

Default leverage amount (e.g., 10x, 25x). If left empty, default value of 10x is used.

Tip
If you leave all fields empty, the system will try to extract information from the signal itself. If not available in the signal, system default values will be used.

7. Risk-Free

Risk-Free is a safety feature that moves Stop Loss to Break-Even (entry) or Entry+ after profit reaches a specified percentage.

How It Works

  1. Trade opens with initial Stop Loss
  2. System continuously monitors PnL
  3. When profit reaches Risk-Free percentage, SL moves to Entry or Entry+
  4. As a result, even if price reverses, you won't lose

Settings

  • Percent: Profit percentage to activate Risk-Free (e.g., 5%)
  • Mode - Entry: Moves SL to entry price (pure Break-Even)
  • Mode - Entry+: Moves SL to a price that maintains the profit percentage
Important
Risk-Free only works for Non-Ladder trades. If TP Ladder is enabled, Risk-Free is disabled.

8. TP Ladder

TP Ladder enables splitting Take Profit into multiple targets and advanced Stop Loss management.

Partial Mode (Close % per Hit + Move SL)

In this mode, a Reduce-Only order is placed at each TP that closes part of the position. Additionally, after each TP, SL is moved.

  • be_mode = Entry: After TP1, SL moves to Entry
  • be_mode = TP Price: After TP1, SL moves to TP1 price

Stairs Only Mode (Move SL Only)

In this mode, no partial closing is performed. Only the final TP is placed, and SL moves to the previous level after each TP.

  • Suitable for trades you want to remain complete
  • SL moves to Entry after TP1, to TP1 after TP2, and so on
Tip
To use TP Ladder, the signal must have a TP list (e.g., tp_list: ["2%", "4%", "6%"]). If TP List is not present, TP Ladder won't be enabled.

9. Profiles

Profiles are collections of settings saved for a channel. Each channel can have multiple profiles, but only one is active.

Creating a Profile

  1. Add or edit the channel
  2. Configure Parser and Defaults settings
  3. Click the "Save Profile" button
  4. Profile is saved and used as the active profile

Managing Profiles

  • You can create multiple profiles for one channel
  • Only the last saved profile is active
  • You can edit or delete profiles

10. Premium Channels

Some Telegram channels are offered as Premium and require payment.

Premium Features

  • Access to exclusive signals
  • Advanced analysis
  • Better support

Purchasing Access

To purchase access to a Premium channel, click the "Purchase Access" button and pay the fee. After purchase, access is activated.

11. Best Practices

  • Test in Demo: Always test in a demo account before using on a live account
  • Verify Parser: After configuring the parser, test a few sample messages to ensure it works correctly
  • Risk-Free Settings: For high-risk trades, enable Risk-Free
  • TP Ladder: Use TP Ladder for strategies with multiple targets
  • Regular Review: Regularly review and update profiles and settings
Important Note
Always test settings after important changes. Use the Backtest section to test settings before activation.
