Use case · Telegram

Get pinged before the market moves.

A Telegram bot watches Polymarket for you. New large fills, whale moves, new markets matching your filters, sum-to-one alerts - it sends them to your phone in seconds. Optionally: a one-tap button to fire a pre-configured trade. Technically: long-poll on Polymarket's data API, Polygon RPC for on-chain events, BotFather token + EIP-712 signing for execution.

How it works

From event to your phone.

Three layers: indexer, filter, delivery. Each is configurable per channel/user.

01 · INDEX

We ingest on-chain Polymarket events (fills, new markets, resolutions) via Polygon RPC and the Polymarket data API. Sub-second from confirmation.

02 · FILTER

Your alert rules: minimum fill size, watched wallets, category whitelist, keyword matches in market questions. Multiple filter profiles per user.

03 · DELIVER

Push to your private Telegram, with optional inline buttons (BUY YES / BUY NO / SKIP). Execution requires a pre-signed approval and a position cap.

Config

Alert rules in plain YAML.

Multiple profiles. Multiple channels. Per-profile cooldowns to avoid spam.

Honest framing

Things to know before you wire funds.

i
Telegram is best for surveillance, not pure execution.

Bots that execute pure trades work better headless. Telegram shines when a human in the loop adds value - vetoing bad signals, sizing on context, deciding whether to chase.

i
Group channels need careful auth.

If you broadcast to a team, the buttons can't be 'BUY' open to anyone - that's a treasury bleed waiting to happen. We scope execution to known user IDs.

!
Telegram throttles on volume.

Bots get rate-limited around 30 messages/sec. For high-throughput alerts, we batch and dedupe. If you need raw firehose, use a dashboard instead.

×
One-tap execution is a double-edged sword.

Convenient on a good day, expensive on a tilt day. We always pair it with daily-loss caps and confirmation dialogs above a threshold. No exceptions.
