Set Up an Alert Bot

Step-by-step guide

This guide walks you through the Configurator screen where you build an Alert Bot from scratch—or load a ready-made template from the Skyrexio script library.

1 · Lay the foundation

Go to Bots → Create → Alert Bot.
Select the exchange account, then choose Spot or Futures.
Pick the quote-currency market (e.g., USDT). The bot can trade any coin that settles in this market.
Specify the total capital you’re allocating to the bot.
Set Active trading pairs—the maximum number of simultaneous positions.

2 · Configure entry order alerts

Pick a signal mode: Indicator, Strategy, or Custom Webhook.
- The Configurator reveals your unique webhook URL, a copy-ready JSON alert template, and a short video walkthrough (full guide link).
Choose the base order type: Market for immediate execution or Limit for a set price.
Feed in any TradingView script—your own, a public community script, or a template from the Skyrexio Script Library—and fine-tune it before deploying.

Copy webhook URL and alert message to open trade

Go to TradingView charts, select trading pair, choose indicator (for example, Skyrexio Ichimoku Clouds Strategy Long and Short) and apply it to the chart

Set the chart timeframe and indicator configuration to meet your expectations

Click Alert, select the indicator as the condition, paste the bot message and webhook URL, click Create

Note: if you chose Alert close orders when configuring the bot, set another alert with close message to exit trades

You can use any external service or in-house script to send alerts to Skyrexio. All you need is a simple HTTP POST request.

Endpoint

Send every alert to:

https://webhook.skyrexio.com/api/v1/deal/alert

JSON Payload Structure

Field explanations

Field

Description

base

Base currency (e.g., MATIC).

quote

Quote currency (e.g., USDT).

position

entry1, entry2, etc. for entries; close to exit all positions.

price

Limit-order price; any value for a market order.

sourceUuid

Taken from Alert message settings on your custom bot page.

secretToken

Taken from Alert message settings on your custom bot page.

Sample Requests

You can test these calls manually with tools like Postman—handy for quick validation before full integration.

POST URL: https://webhook.skyrexio.com/api/v1/deal/alert

Main entry (entry1)

{
  "base": "MATIC",
  "quote": "USDT",
  "position": "entry1",
  "price": "1.25",
  "sourceUuid": "your_sourceUuid_from_bot",
  "secretToken": "your_secretToken_from_bot"
}

Additional entry (entry2, etc.)

{
  "base": "MATIC",
  "quote": "USDT",
  "position": "entry2",
  "price": "1.20",
  "sourceUuid": "your_sourceUuid_from_bot",
  "secretToken": "your_secretToken_from_bot"
}

Close position

{
  "base": "MATIC",
  "quote": "USDT",
  "position": "close",
  "price": "1.30",
  "sourceUuid": "your_sourceUuid_from_bot",
  "secretToken": "your_secretToken_from_bot"
}

Sending a Request in Postman

Open Postman.
Select POST and paste the endpoint URL: https://webhook.skyrexio.com/api/v1/deal/alert
Go to Body → raw → JSON.
Paste one of the JSON payloads above.
Click Send.

That’s it—you can manually trigger openings, additional entries, or closings and verify the responses. Once tested, integrate the same call into any automated trading system or alert source.

3 · Set overlap and close orders

Want to launch quickly? Switch to Auto mode and pick one of three ready-made risk profiles:

Style

Core idea

Default parameters*

Best for

Conservative

Dollar-Cost Averaging with widening entries

• Overlap -30 % • Take-profit 4 % • Stop-loss Disabled

Low-risk accumulation during volatile pullbacks

Moderate

Swing trading with distributed entries

• Overlap -10 % • Take-profit 6 % • Stop-loss -4 %

Catching sideways moves or gentle uptrends

Aggressive

Momentum trading, high reward-to-risk

• Overlap Disabled • Take-profit 5 % • Stop-loss -2 %

Riding fast breakouts and strong trends

Each preset auto-generates the overlap grid, extra entry orders, take-profit, and stop-loss levels based on the trading amount you chose in Step 1. You adjust only the base entry size—everything else is calculated and loaded for you, so you can skip the manual configuration and go live in seconds.

Configuring additional entry orders

This step lets you build a price-based “average-in” sequence that fires automatically without external alerts.

Switch to Custom → Preset
- Make sure Custom risk management is active.
- Toggle Additional entries ON, then choose the Preset tab (the bot will place adds at predefined price intervals).
Set how many adds the bot will place
- Drag the Orders slider (or type a number) — 1 to 10 extra buys.
Shape order size growth
- Order size scale controls how each successive add grows relative to the previous one.
  - 1.0× = all adds equal size
  - >1.0× = each add is larger (aggressive DCA)
  - <1.0× = each add is smaller (tapered DCA)
Define the first price gap
- Price change % sets how far below the current price the first add is placed.
Widen or narrow later gaps
- Orders price-change scale multiplies the gap for each subsequent add.
  - 1.0× = even spacing
  - >1.0× = wider spacing the deeper it goes
  - <1.0× = tighter spacing
Choose the execution style
- Market — fills instantly (slippage possible).
- Limit — waits for your target price (no slippage, but fill is not guaranteed).
Review the live preview (right-hand panel)
- Confirms base entry size, each extra order’s size and price offset, plus total exposure.
Adjust until satisfied, then click Next step to move on to your exit and risk-management settings.

Tip: If you’d rather trigger adds via external signals, flip to the Alerts tab instead of Preset.

Configuring close orders

This screen defines how the bot will exit the position—take-profits (TP) in slices and a single stop-loss (SL). The right-hand panel updates live with the exact orders that will be sent.

Stay in Custom → Preset
- Confirm Custom risk management is active.
- Close orders toggle is ON and the Preset tab is selected.
Enable Take-profit ladder
- Switch Take profit to ON.
- Choose the execution style: Market (instant) or Limit (queue at target).
Shape the TP ladder with four sliders
Control
Purpose
Tip
Orders (1 – 5)
How many TP slices you want. Current: 4.
Fewer orders = larger chunks.
Orders size scale (0.1× – 2.5×)
Multiplier for each subsequent TP size. Current: 1.5× (sizes grow).
1.0× = equal volumes.
Price change % (1 % – 15 %)
Distance to the first TP from entry. Current: 8 %.
Higher = more room to run.
Orders price-change scale(0.1× – 2.5×)
Widens or tightens spacing between later TPs. Current: 1.4×(each target further apart).
1.0× = even spacing.
Type exact numbers in the white input boxes on the right if needed.
Set a Stop-loss (optional but recommended)
- Toggle Stop Loss ON.
- Pick Market or Limit.
- Drag the slider Price change % (-10 % – -1 %) or type the value. Current example: -5 %.
Review the real-time summary
- The Close orders preview shows:
  - Four TP slices with volumes 12.31 % / 18.46 % / 27.69 % / 41.54 % at 8 % / 19.20 % / 34.88 % / 56.83 % price targets.
  - A single -5 % stop-loss.
Adjust if necessary, then click Create bot to finish or Back to tweak previous steps.

Once saved, the bot will automatically scale out of the position at each TP level or exit completely at the stop-loss, exactly as defined here.

4 · Launch the bot

Review the summary at the bottom of the Configurator.
Hit Create Bot.
Give your bot a name (something you’ll recognise in logs).
