Pausing Bots

This section will show you how to pause and activate bots.

By default, a newly created bot will be active, and you'll have the option to pause or stop the bot. A bot must be stopped before it can be deleted.

  • How to check the status of your bot:

An Active bot will display the option to Pause. Active Bot

A Paused bot will display the option to Activate. Paused Bot

  • The bot allows for two types of closure: Manual, as shown above using the bot itself, or you can Automate the process of activating and pausing the bots.

Webhook for Pausing/Activating Bots

  • You can Pause or Activate your bot using TradingView webhooks:

Remember:

The bot only accepts paused and active as valid statuses. To delete your bot, use the app itself.

  • Webhook URL for changing status:
https://api.crodltrading.com/v1/bots/status

Example of a message/alert body for TradingView:

  {
  "new_status": "active",
  "bot_id": 75,
  "security_token": "8wtmgqfd1t4np4dfbqw2sa3na00h0aoq"
  }
  • new_status: Options available are active and paused.
  • bot_id: This is the bot ID you want to change the status of, and it should be an integer (e.g., 1, 2) and not a string (e.g., "1", "2").
  • security_token: This is your security token. Do not share this, as it is linked to your API keys.

To find this information, go to your bot's specific page: Bot Info
