Efficiently Capturing Alpha With the Custom Alert Bot
The “Live Token Trade Custom Alert Bot” (a.k.a. Custom Alert Bot) in Alpha Filter provides real-time notifications tailored to your investment strategy amidst a vast array of trading data. This guide will walk you through setting up and leveraging the Custom Alert Bot to efficiently capture alpha signals.
Preliminary Learning: Understanding Investment Strategies Before using the Custom Alert Bot, it’s essential to understand basic investment strategies. Review the following resources:
“How to Win in the DEX Trading Market”: Alpha Filter is a tool to help you identify investment targets rather than simply providing answers. Building your analytical skills is key to successful investing. Read it here.

Why You Should Use The Custom Alert Bot
After reading “How To Invest Token In 5 Minutes,” you might find it challenging to decide which token to buy among the vast amount of trading information. Alpha Filter provides real-time data from over 500 actively trading top-tier investors, making it practically impossible to analyze and track all this information comprehensively.
This is where the Custom Alert Bot comes in. The bot notifies you only of information that matches your investment strategy. In other words, it allows you to receive alerts on crucial data you don't want to miss, helping you capture promising tokens that align with your strategy in the midst of complex trading data.
Examples of Custom Alert Bot Settings by Strategy
The Custom Alert Bot provides real-time notifications for trading information that matches the conditions you've set according to your investment strategy. Let's look at examples of how to set custom alerts for different strategies.
Quickly Catch Newly Issued Tokens
If you want to receive alerts for newly issued tokens, set “Edit Token Age Range” to 0 hours to 1 hour. This setting ensures you’ll get alerts on tokens issued within the past hour.

If you only want alerts for newly issued tokens with high liquidity or multiple alpha finders are invested in, increase the values of “Edit Min Alpha Finder Count,” “Edit Min Buy Value,” or “Edit Min Total Buy.”
By setting these values higher, you’ll receive fewer alerts, but each alert will signal a token with a higher level of confidence. The number of alpha finders and the amount they’ve invested are direct indicators of confidence in a token.
Identify Tokens in Accumulation or Price Adjustment Phases
Tokens that have dropped sharply after a spike may often see a resurgence if they had previously attracted attention. Typically, these tokens start to rally again after most people have forgotten about them.

This is an example from “Vista”. Often, when everyone stops mentioning a particular token, it suddenly surges in value, and this occurrence is more common than one might expect.
For cases like these, use “Edit Token Age Range,” “Edit MarketCap Range,” and “Edit Min Total Buy” to catch these opportunities.
For example, set the Token Age to over 9 hours and the Market Cap to a typical accumulating phase range (e.g., $500k to $10M) to receive alerts when an alpha finder buys tokens matching these conditions.

Catch Tokens Where Specific Alpha Finders Have Made Large Investments
An alpha finder’s significant investment in a token generally suggests higher confidence and perceived stability. Therefore, a single alpha finder’s large bet can be valuable information. Alpha finders don’t frequently make large investments in the DEX market.
Set “Edit Min Buy Value” to $10,000 or more to ensure you don’t miss these cases.

Optimizing Custom Alerts Based on Your Investment Strategy
Setting up Custom Alerts based on examples is just the beginning. It’s essential to optimize these alerts to fit your unique investment style and strategy. Some investors can engage all day, while others may only have limited time due to work or school.
Given these different circumstances, each investor should tailor their strategy to their situation. Establish your own investment strategy and configure the Custom Alerts accordingly to use it effectively.
First Step: Reviewing Past Data and Building Your Strategy
Look back at tokens that have provided substantial returns over the last two weeks to a month. Think about what conditions would have allowed you to recognize these tokens earlier, set up Custom Alerts based on those conditions, and test them.
By reviewing past data, you can find the optimal settings that match your investment strategy.
Next Step
The final step is to conduct an in-depth analysis of the tokens filtered through your custom alerts. While the Custom Alert Bot efficiently narrows down valuable tokens, additional analysis is necessary for safe investment.
Even alpha finders aren’t infallible, so it’s important not to blindly trust their investment data. Instead, analyze tokens yourself before investing. The next document will explain methods for analyzing tokens in detail.
