Alpha bot setup on Discord

[grave ledge]

Hi @acoustic stratus , I'm wondering if this bot can provide update in designated channel such as crypto market cap, 24 hour market volume and fear & greed index score. If yes, may I know which to subscribe and how to setup?

And for the btc and eth realtime update, it can only show on the online side or can be posted inside certain channel?

[acoustic stratus]

You can set up automatic scheduled posts in a channel for all of these, except I guess total market cap and total market volume - there’s currently no way to pull those, though I could probably add that. You would need the scheduled posting addon, which is $5/month or $50/year

Do you have any manual or instructions on how to set it up?

[acoustic stratus]

You can start a 30 day free trial here: https://www.alpha.bot/pro/scheduled-posting

Then you can use eg /schedule price, /schedule chart, etc to schedule /p and /c requests. There’s a short guide here https://www.alpha.bot/features/scheduled-posting, but if you need any help, feel free to let me know

But the feature only works with command? Is there any automatic posting once there’s an update in the market?

[acoustic stratus]

Once you run /schedule price or any other /schedule command, you essentially create a recurring schedule of updates

Unlike /price where it’s just on demand

I see. But there’s no clear guide on how all these works?

And for the btc and eth realtime update, it can only show on the online side or can be posted inside certain channel?

Well yeah the guides are less than optimal. The idea is that you would run whichever /p or /c command + provide a schedule which which that same command will be periodically executed going forward
