This article is about incoming webhooks that you can manage here: botcrypto.io/webhooks.
What are incoming webhooks?
These incoming webhooks are use to build trading strategies on botcrypto that must wait a signal from an external service, like Trading View.
This signal is a POST request to webhook URL that trigger the webhook state in your strategy.
Trading View example
We are going to setup an alert on https://tradingview.com that will trigger a buy order on botcrypto.io
Create an incoming webhook
Go to the incoming webhooks page botcrypto.io/webhooks and click on "New incoming webhook".
A new webhook will appear with an URL that look like this:
https://api.botcrypto.io/v1/webhooks/in/d7f234165bf9a2e69686d7ba2f461fb3
You can create several incoming webhooks according to your subscription but you can re-use the same webhook in many strategies anyway. Use many webhooks allow you to get many alerts in input.
Create the strategy
In the strategy creator botcrypto.io/creator/new, us the webhook state.
In the state configuration, select the webhook identifiant previously created: d7f234165bf9a2e69686d7ba2f461fb3
By default, the condition will be pass once the webhook has been triggered at lest one time in the last 300 seconds (5 minutes) when the bot run.
Par défaut, la condition sera réalisée dès lors que le webhook aura été appelé au moins une fois lors des 300 dernières secondes (5 minutes) à l'exécution du bot. Remind you that a bot run when a candle close.
Give a name to the strategy and save it.
You can now create and start a bot using this strategy. It won't do anything until the webhook is not trigger.
Create a Trading View alert
Go to a graph on tradingview.com and click on "Alerts". The form to create an alert open, check "Webhook URL" and past the full webhook URL previsouly created on botcrypto.
Et voilà! When tradingview.com will trigger the alert, once the bot will run it will pass the webhook state and will go further in the strategy 🎉
You do not have to keep your browser open. So you can stop your computer and go for a cocktail, Bocrypto & Trading View are taking care of your trading🍹
Incoming Webhook VS Outgoing Webhook
Botcrypto offer you to be notified by webhook. Here we are talking about "outgoing webhook".
It is possible to use an incoming webhook URL as an outgoing webhook so you can transmit signals between strategies.
