This is RoboInformer, a tool that keeps you updated about your MetaTrader trading bot. It sends you Telegram messages when specific stuff happens on your trading account. It helps you keep an eye on your trades but can't be at your computer all the time.
RoboInformer keeps an eye on your trades and lets you know when:
- Your robot has taken a certain number of orders.
- Your balance goes up by a certain amount (your bot's made some money!).
- Your open profit/loss goes over a certain amount.
When any of this happens, RoboInformer will hit you up on Telegram with a message using @RoboInformerBot (or your own bot if you compile it youself).
Follow these steps to get RoboInformer running:
- Download the
RoboInformer.ex4/ex5
