Server-side price alerts to Telegram in 5 minutes.

Get your Telegram chat id

Create a bot with @BotFather (/newbot, pick a name) — or use an existing one. Send your bot any message, then open https://api.telegram.org/botYOUR_TOKEN/getUpdates in a browser: your chat id is in message.chat.id. That id is what routes alerts to you.

Create the alert

While signed in on getoptiom.com, alerts are one authenticated POST away. The snippet below runs in the browser console; each account can hold up to 20 active alerts, and each alert fires once then marks itself triggered.

// Run in your browser console while signed in on getoptiom.com
await fetch("/api/alerts", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "content-type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    symbol: "BTCUSDT",
    op: "below",             // "above" or "below"
    price: 55000,
    telegram_chat_id: "123456789",
  }),
}).then(r => r.json());

// List your alerts
await fetch("/api/alerts").then(r => r.json());

// Delete one
await fetch("/api/alerts?id=ALERT_ID", { method: "DELETE" });

How it runs

A worker evaluates all active alerts against the latest 1-minute close every 5 minutes. When your threshold is crossed you get a Telegram message with the symbol, threshold and last price, and the alert flips to triggered — re-arm it by creating it again. Self-serve API keys will make this scriptable without the browser session.
