Notifications
TTMT runs 24/7 in the cloud, so you don't have to watch the dashboard — it can push real-time alerts straight to your Telegram. A dedicated notification bot messages you when signals come in, trades open or close, take-profits and stop-losses hit, and errors occur. This page covers connecting the bot and choosing exactly which events you want to hear about.
Connecting the notification bot
Go to Settings → Notifications, then:
- Click Connect Telegram.
- TTMT shows a connection code (displayed large, with a copy button) and a button to open @ttmt_notifications_bot.
- Send the code to the bot in Telegram.
- The dashboard confirms automatically — "Telegram connected successfully".
INFO
Your connection code is valid for 5 minutes. If it expires before you send it, click New Code to generate a fresh one.
Example: You generated a code but it stopped working — it expired after 5 minutes. Click New Code and resend the new one to the bot.
Separate from channel monitoring
Separate from channel monitoring
The notification bot only sends you alerts; it never reads your channels. It is a different connection from the channel-reading link on your profile, and disconnecting one does not affect the other.
Notification types
Once connected, ten independent toggles control which events send you a message. All toggles default to on.
| Toggle | When it fires |
|---|---|
| Signal Received | When a new trading signal is detected |
| Signal Modifications | When a signal modifies your trades (SL, TP, BE) |
| Trade Opened | When a trade is executed |
| Trade Closed | When a trade is fully closed |
| Take Profit Hit | When a TP level is reached |
| Stop Loss Hit | When stop loss is triggered |
| Broker Errors | Connection or execution errors |
| Warnings | System warnings and alerts |
| Manual Actions | When you make changes in MT4/MT5 |
| Signal Failures | When a signal fails to execute |
Trade Closed is a single toggle — it covers both winning and losing closes rather than splitting them.
Testing and disconnecting
Once connected, a Test button sends a sample notification so you can confirm delivery. A Disconnect button unlinks the bot after a confirmation dialog — you can reconnect anytime with a fresh code.
Recommended setups
- Stay fully informed: all ten toggles on.
- Hands-off: Trade Closed, Stop Loss Hit, Broker Errors, and Warnings — outcomes and problems only, less noise.
- Debugging a channel: turn on Signal Received, Signal Modifications, and Signal Failures to see exactly what a channel sends and how TTMT handles each message.
Example: A channel sends signals but nothing executes. Turn on Signal Received and Signal Failures to see whether the signal arrived and why it didn't fill. Or you closed a position manually in MT5 — Manual Actions tells you TTMT noticed your change.
Troubleshooting
Not receiving alerts. Check the bot shows Connected on the Notifications page. Confirm at least one toggle is on, and make sure you haven't blocked the bot in Telegram. If needed, disconnect and reconnect using the flow above.
Code expired. Connection codes last 5 minutes. Click New Code and resend.
Delayed alerts. Telegram's bot delivery can lag at peak times.
TIP
Notification delays never affect your trades. Trade execution runs independently of alert delivery, so a late message does not mean a late trade.
After a Telegram session reset. If you reset your Telegram sessions or changed your phone number, disconnect and reconnect the bot.
