To send alerts from Discord to MetaTrader 4/5 you will need:
You can join using two ways:
Find Profit Robots Bot in the list of contacts on our server a send any message to it.
It should reply to you and give you a key (NOTE: the key is missing on the screenshot, but you will have it). This is your personal key. All messages for that key will be forwarded by the bot into your private dialog with the bot.
You can type S to get all your keys (you can have more than one key) on the main menu. To back to the previous menu level type C (Cancel).
Each channel will have its own secret key. Follow the next steps to get that key.
The bot will reply to you with a brief description, a link to add a bot, and a list of available channels. You need to be the owner of the server in order to add a bot to the channel.
Select the server and push the Authorize button.
Type R to refresh the list. The bot will print the updated list.
And select the channel by typing its index. You need a read key.
The bot will reply to you with a key.
You can get alerts by using AdvancedNotificationsLib. Do import that library by putting the next piece of code:
enum ServerType
{
SelfHosted = 1, // Self-hosted
WSS = 4, // ProfitRobots.com (secured)
};
#define LISTENER_STATUS_DISCONNECTED 0
#define LISTENER_STATUS_CONNECTING 1
#define LISTENER_STATUS_CONNECTED 2
#import AdvancedNotificationsLib.dll
void AdvancedAlert(string key, string text, string instrument, string timeframe);
bool StartListener(string key, int serverType);
bool StopListener();
int ListenerStatus();
string GetNextMessage();
#import
This library load alerts asynchronously. It cal load alerts for 1 key only.
Call StartListener in the initialization of an expert to start loading alerts for the specified key.
Before getting an alert check for the status by calling ListenerStatus. If the status is LISTENER_STATUS_DISCONNECTED then connect again.
Call the GetNextMessage in a loop. Each call will return a new alert. An empty string will be returned when there will be no more alerts.
Call StopListener in the deinitialization of an expert.
bool connect_sent = false;
void DoConnect()
{
StartListener(You read key, WSS);
connect_sent = true;
}
int OnInit()
{
if (!IsDllsAllowed())
{
Alert(Error: Dll calls must be allowed!);
return INIT_FAILED;
}
EventSetTimer(1);
if (ListenerStatus() == LISTENER_STATUS_DISCONNECTED)
{
DoConnect();
}
return INIT_SUCCEEDED;
}
void OnDeinit(const int reason)
{
EventKillTimer();
StopListener();
connect_sent = false;
}
void OnTimer()
{
if (!connect_sent && ListenerStatus() == LISTENER_STATUS_DISCONNECTED)
{
DoConnect();
return;
}
string command = GetNextMessage();
while (command != )
{
ParseAndExecuteCommand(command);
command = GetNextMessage();
}
}
You can use order_executer if you the one who sends these alerts into the channel. Just send alerts in this format. order_executer can parse this syntax and execute orders without any coding.
