Verification Steps

Step 1: Check Webhook Endpoint is Accessible

# From your server
curl http://localhost:3001/api/trading/market-data

# Should return:
# {"success":true,"availableSymbols":[],"count":0,"cache":{}}

Step 2: Wait 5 Minutes for First Alert

After creating alerts, wait for next bar close (5 minutes max)

Step 3: Verify Cache is Populated

curl http://localhost:3001/api/trading/market-data

# Should now show:
# {
#   "success": true,
#   "availableSymbols": ["SOL-PERP", "ETH-PERP", "BTC-PERP"],
#   "count": 3,
#   "cache": {
#     "SOL-PERP": {
#       "atr": 0.45,
#       "adx": 32.1,
#       "rsi": 58.3,
#       "ageSeconds": 23
#     },
#     ...
#   }
# }

Step 4: Test Telegram Trade

You: "long sol"

# Should see:
✅ Analytics check passed (68/100)
Data: tradingview_real (23s old)  ← FRESH DATA!
Proceeding with LONG SOL...

Troubleshooting

Problem: Cache still empty after 10 minutes

Check:

1. TradingView alerts show "Active" status
2. Webhook URL is correct (check for typos)
3. Port 3001 is accessible (firewall rules)
4. Docker container is running: docker ps | grep trading-bot
5. Check logs: docker logs -f trading-bot-v4

Problem: Alerts not firing

Check:

1. TradingView plan supports webhooks (Pro/Premium/Pro+)
2. Chart is open (alerts need chart loaded to fire)
3. Condition ta.change(time("1")) is correct
4. Timeframe matches (5-minute chart)

Problem: JSON parse errors in logs

Check:

1. Alert message is valid JSON (no trailing commas)
2. TradingView placeholders use {{ticker}} not {ticker}
3. No special characters breaking JSON

---

Alert Cost Optimization

Current setup: 3 alerts firing every 5 minutes = ~864 alerts/day

TradingView Alert Limits:

• Free: 1 alert
• Pro: 20 alerts
• Pro+: 100 alerts
• Premium: 400 alerts

If you need to reduce alerts:

1. Use 15-minute bars instead of 5-minute (reduces by 67%)
2. Only enable alerts for symbols you actively trade
3. Use same alert for multiple symbols (requires script modification)

---

Advanced: n8n Proxy Setup (Optional)

If your bot is not publicly accessible, use n8n as webhook proxy:

Step 1: Create n8n webhook

• Webhook URL: https://flow.egonetix.de/webhook/market-data
• Method: POST
• Response: Return text

Step 2: Add HTTP Request node

• URL: http://trading-bot-v4:3000/api/trading/market-data
• Method: POST
• Body: {{ $json }}
• Headers: None needed (internal network)

Step 3: Use n8n URL in TradingView alerts

https://flow.egonetix.de/webhook/market-data

---

Next: Enable Market Data Alerts

1. Copy alert message JSON from above
2. Open TradingView → SOL/USD 5-minute chart
3. Click alert icon (top right)
4. Paste condition and message
5. Save alert
6. Repeat for ETH and BTC
7. Wait 5 minutes and verify cache

Once verified, proceed to SQL analysis!
