Type your trades

Write what you want instead of tapping through screens.

Send a short line to your bot and it does the rest. Capital letters don’t matter, and a leading slash is optional, so /long BTC 20 3 works too.

Markets and charts

Type	What it does
btc	Opens BTC’s card
btc 4h	Opens BTC’s card with the 4-hour chart (15m, 1h, 4h, 1d)

Open and close

Type	What it does
long eth 50 3x	A $50 long on ETH at 3x
short sol 20	A $20 short on SOL at your default leverage
long btc 20 3	The x after the leverage is optional
close btc	Closes all of your BTC position
close btc 50%	Closes half of it

buy and l work like long, sell and s like short, and exit like close. Amounts are position sizes, and the margin is the size divided by the leverage.

Unless you’ve switched on one-tap trading, a typed trade shows the same review as a tapped one before anything is placed.

Take profit and stop loss

Type	What it does
tp btc 10%	Take profit at +10% of margin
sl btc 78000	Stop loss at a price of $78,000
sl btc 5%	Stop loss at −5% of margin
sl btc off	Removes the stop loss

See Take profit and stop loss for how percentages work.

If the bot can’t tell what you mean, it replies with an example to copy.
