Go to Settings
Click Activate Telegram Bot
This will redirect you to Telegram (web or app) — press Start bot to activate the bot
Once connected, you’ll immediately start receiving notifications from your account.
2. Customize Notification Types
After linking Telegram, return to Settings > Notifications
Select which notifications you'd like to receive (e.g., deal opened, SL hit, external trade alerts)
For full details on all notification channels (email, mobile, website), check out our Notifications Setup Guide.
You can configure notifications for:
Security events
Demo Account (same options as real accounts)
SmartTrades

API Key Expiration
Note: The "External trades" security alert is only available for Pro or higher plans and requires a connected Binance account.
3. Use Telegram Bot Commands (Pro Tip!)
The 3Commas Telegram bot isn’t just passive — it listens to your commands.
Here are some examples of what you can do:
Command | Function |
/stop_all_long_bots | Stops all active Long bots |
/stop_all_short_bots | Stops all active Short bots |
/start_all_long_bots | Starts all Long bots |
/start_all_short_bots | Starts all Short bots |
/start_bot [bot_id] | Starts a specific bot by ID (e.g., /start_bot 123456) |
/stop_bot [bot_id] | Stops a specific bot by ID (e.g., /stop_bot 123456) |
/my_bots [filter] | Lists your bots. Optional filters: enabled, disabled, longs, shorts (e.g., /my_bots enabled longs) |
/my_stats | Returns summary stats of your bots and SmartTrades |
Critical Alert
These commands can start, stop, or reveal sensitive information about your trading bots and accounts. Only link your personal, secure Telegram account. If someone else accesses your Telegram, they can issue commands affecting live trades.
