Price Alerts

Set a price, walk away. The moment Binance prints a tick that matches your condition, FlowEntry raises a centered fire-toast in the app and sends a Telegram message from @flowentry_alert_bot.

FlowEntry Alerts tab open in the sidebar with a list of active alerts and gold price-tag markers on the chart's price scale

What it answers

  • "I don’t want to stare at the screen — wake me when X happens."
  • "How do I track 30 setups without 30 tabs open?"
  • "Did this zone break, or did it hold while I was asleep?"
  • "I’m only interested in this coin if it closes above $X on the daily."
  • "Where on the chart did I set alerts on this coin?"

Mental model

Price alerts are how FlowEntry talks back when you’re not looking. You set a price, you pick a condition (above, below, crossing, daily close above or below), and you walk away. The moment Binance prints a tick that matches, two things happen at the same time: the app pops a centered fire-toast in front of you, and Telegram sends you a message from @flowentry_alert_bot. The toast stays on screen until you dismiss it, designed to be impossible to miss.

Each active alert leaves a gold tag on the chart’s price scale, so you can see, at a glance, every level you’re watching on the coin you have open. Hundred alerts max, repeat-with-cooldown or once-and-done, custom message per alert. This is your idle layer. The chart is for active reads; alerts are for the rest of the day.

The seven conditions

  • Above / BelowFires the first tick where price meets or exceeds the threshold (Above) or falls to or below it (Below). The classic "let me know if it gets here" alert.
  • CrossingFires when price crosses the threshold from either side. Useful for ranges and pivots.
  • Crossing Up / Crossing DownDirectional crossings. Crossing Up fires only on a low-to-high cross; Crossing Down only on high-to-low. Filters out the other direction’s noise.
  • 1D Close Above / 1D Close BelowFires on the UTC daily close event itself, only if the closing price meets the threshold. The discipline alert for traders who refuse to react to intraday wicks.

Once vs Repeat (and cooldown)

Once fires the first matching tick, then flips to Triggered and stops checking. You re-enable it manually from the alert row (▶ button) when you want it back.

Repeat stays active across fires. To stop a Crossing alert from firing on every flicker in a flat market, each fire stamps the alert and subsequent fires are suppressed until your cooldown elapses. Cooldown ranges from zero to twenty-four hours per alert.

How to use it

  • Watch a zone edge without watching the chartOpen a coin with a Sigma gold zone. Right-click the zone’s high in the chart and pick "Create alert here..." with 1D Close Above. You’ll get pinged the moment the bot’s daily-close stop-and-reverse logic would fire.
  • Stalk a whale wallWhale Walls shows a thick cyan line at $X. Right-click $X and set a Crossing alert. If price gets there and either bounces or breaks through, you’ll hear it.
  • Track thirty coins at onceBulk-set Crossing alerts on every coin you care about. The 100-alert cap is generous on purpose. Each fire arrives with the custom message you wrote, so you remember why you set it.
  • Build a daily-close disciplineDay-traders who keep getting wicked on intraday spikes can use 1D Close Above and 1D Close Below to make decisions only on the closes that actually matter.
  • Run alerts as your only channel while travellingLink Telegram once from the Alerts tab. Every fire arrives as a push notification on your phone. The in-app fire-toast is the at-desk catch; Telegram is the away-from-keyboard channel.

The three ways to create an alert

  • Bell button (chart header)Top of the chart, opens the Create modal pre-filled with the current symbol. The fastest path when you already know the price.
  • Right-click on the chartRight-click anywhere on the price pane and pick "Create alert here..." — the threshold is pre-filled with the price you clicked. The fastest path when the level is something you’re reading from the chart (zone edge, wall, support, resistance).
  • The + on the price scaleA small + appears on the right-hand price scale when your cursor is over the main price pane. Click it to open the Create modal at the cursor’s price. Hidden when you hover sub-panes (Sigma, Pulse, etc.) so it doesn’t pop on the wrong axis.

Two delivery channels (independent)

The in-app fire-toast is centered, persistent, and waits for you to dismiss it. It shows the symbol, the condition that fired, the threshold, and the custom message you wrote.

The Telegram message goes to @flowentry_alert_bot after a one-time link step in the Alerts tab. The two channels are independent on purpose: if Telegram is offline or you blocked the bot, the fire still raises the toast and lands in the History sub-tab.

What happens when your subscription expires

Auto-paused, never deleted. The Alerts tab shows a banner with the count of paused alerts. Renew at any time and click Reactivate all — every alert comes back on within seconds with no rebuild required.

What it doesn’t do, and when not to use it

Alerts trigger on Binance price only. FlowEntry-native sources — Sigma-fire alerts, whale-wall-near-price alerts, book-ratio-crosses alerts — are on the roadmap and not yet shipped. Same for trendline / drawing-based alerts and chart screenshots in the Telegram body.

Don’t replicate Binance’s built-in alerts for the sake of it; use FlowEntry alerts when you want one place for the chart, the indicators, and the alert list. Don’t set a hundred alerts you’ll never act on — the cap is generous, but every fire is a tap on your attention. And don’t use Crossing on illiquid coins without a cooldown in Repeat mode; an illiquid book flickers all day.

Examples

Case A: zone-edge alert that caught a daily break

Setup.
Sigma gold zone on a coin at $X–$Y. User right-clicked $Y and set 1D Close Above.
Signal.
Daily candle closed just above $Y.
Outcome.
Telegram + fire-toast at the close; user was on the chart within minutes.
Lesson.
Daily-close alerts on zone edges are the lowest-effort, highest-signal use of the feature.

Case B: whale-wall ping

Setup.
A cyan whale wall sitting at $X under price. User set Below at slightly above $X as an early-warning band.
Signal.
Price approached the wall; alert fired before the wick touched.
Outcome.
User had time to open the chart and read the wall vs the live book.
Lesson.
Alerts pair naturally with Whale Walls — the wall tells you the level, the alert tells you the moment.

Case C: crossing-with-cooldown on a ranging coin

Setup.
Coin ranging tightly. User set Crossing in Repeat mode with a 30-minute cooldown.
Signal.
Price oscillated through the level six times in a day; alert fired four times (the cooldown swallowed two).
Outcome.
A steady drumbeat of "still ranging" without spam.
Lesson.
Repeat + cooldown is how you use Crossing on a noisy book without your phone dying.

Case D: subscription expiry + reactivate

Setup.
User’s 10-day pass expired with 22 active alerts.
Signal.
Banner appeared: "Subscription expired — 22 alerts paused."
Outcome.
User renewed, clicked Reactivate all, all 22 alerts came back on within seconds.
Lesson.
Alerts survive lapses. Renew and resume — no rebuild required.
