Use Case
Telegram Trading Bot
Build a Telegram bot that delivers real-time alerts, responds to /rsi and /price commands, and sends AI-powered market summaries to your trading group.
The Challenge
Your Telegram trading community wants real-time indicator alerts and on-demand market data — but building a bot that calculates indicators correctly, runs 24/7, and responds quickly requires significant infrastructure. You need reliable pre-calculated data, not a local Python library computing RSI with potential formula errors.
How TickAtlas Solves It
Instant Indicator Queries
User types /rsi EURUSD H4 and your bot hits /v1/indicator — response in under 100ms, formatted and sent.
Scheduled Alerts
Poll /v1/screener every 5 minutes. When RSI crosses 70 or MACD crosses signal, push an alert to the group.
AI Market Briefing
Send a morning /v1/summary briefing to the channel: "EURUSD: Bullish bias (78% confidence). Key resistance at 1.0950."
Inline Queries
Support Telegram inline mode — users type @yourbot XAUUSD and see live price + key indicators without leaving the chat.
Key Endpoints
GET /v1/indicator?symbol=EURUSD&name=rsi&timeframe=H4 On-demand indicator for /rsi commands
GET /v1/summary?symbol=EURUSD Natural-language analysis for daily briefing messages
GET /v1/screener?filter=rsi_above_70&timeframe=H1 Scan for alert triggers across all symbols
GET /v1/multi?symbols=EURUSD,GBPUSD,XAUUSD&indicators=rsi,macd Batch watchlist data for group overview messages
