Customize Messages or embeds
You can customize your Discord message or embed, and your tweet.
You have full customization of how your message or embed content looks when sent. We've built a 'no-code' message builder for sharing trades to Discord, scope it out in your account settings. There is where you'll also specify the webhooks you wish Trade Hub to use for sending out your trades.
This can be seen as intimidating for some, with all the available configurations & properties, but we wanted to allow for very detailed messages or embeds. Use the default embed to see how the embeds are built using some of the available data properties.
Discord
Each individual market and trade event (open, close, etc.) can be customized.
Customization
This will prompt you with the message/embed builder as shown below. The message builder is pretty self-explanatory. To start, select which trade event (open, close, etc.) and the market you you wish to customize trade sharing content for.
You can use regular text messages or embeds, which offer more personalization. The trade properties are all the data sets that can be used that will be replaced with the actual data each one represents. For example, if you use Stock Ticker it will be replaced with the ticker symbol of the submitted trade.
Place your cursor anywhere in the Text Message field or an Embed field, then click on the property you would like placed there.
The embed builder is straightforward and simple to use. Each aspect of the embed is labeled and the preview above will show an example of the content. Providing a test trade to see a finished version of the embed will be added soon.
@everyone and role pings should be set with your webhook settings to avoid using invalid roles or mentions.
Account, Trade, & Stock Properties
Properties are a menu of data sets that can display asset tickers, current price, user info, and so many others including advanced data sets such as the volume and the days high/low ranges.
NOTE:
You can have properties punctuated to start with capital letters, or have the whole value of that property in all caps.
For example:
[[stock.name]] the ticker would be aapl
[[Stock.name]] the ticker would be Aapl
[[STOCK.name]] the ticker would be AAPL
[[trade.type]] would be open, average, partial, or close
[[Trade.type]] would be Open, Average, Partial, or Close
When TP/SL is triggered and options expire, these are sent through the Close event, and will utilize the Trade Notes property. "Trade Expired", and "Stop Loss Hit" or "Take Profit Hit" will be in the trade notes.
