How to build your Telegram buy bot

• Start a chat with BotFather: Launch BotFather, start a conversation, and type /newbot.
• Follow instructions: BotFather will ask for a name for your bot and then a username. The username must end in bot (e.g., buy_alert_bot).
• Receive API token: After setup, BotFather will give you a token. This is crucial as it will allow your software to communicate with Telegram API.

• Choose a programming environment: Python is recommended due to its simplicity and powerful libraries. Install Python and then set up a virtual environment.
• Install necessary libraries: Use pip to install python-telegram-bot and any other needed libraries.
• Write basic bot code: Initialize the bot with the token you received and write basic functions to respond to messages.

• Subscribe to Mobula WSS trades API
• Install the websocket-client package and python-telegram-bot if it’s not already installed:

pip install websocket-client
pip install python-telegram-bot

• Fetch recent transactions and filter them by token address, amount, or sending/receiving addresses.

import websocket
import json
import threading
from telegram import Bot

# Initialize your Telegram Bot
TOKEN = 'YOUR_TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'
CHAT_ID = 'YOUR_CHAT_ID'
bot = Bot(TOKEN)

def send_telegram_message(message):
    bot.send_message(chat_id=CHAT_ID, text=message)

def on_message(ws, message):
    data = json.loads(message)
    if data.get("type") == "trade_update":
        trades = data.get("data", [])
        for trade in trades:
            if trade['token_amount_usd'] >= 1 and trade.get('contract_address') == 'THE-TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS':
                alert_message = f"Trade Alert - Blockchain: {trade['blockchain']}, Hash: {trade['hash']}, " \
                                f"Token: {trade.get('token_name', 'Unknown Token')}, " \
                                f"Amount: {trade['token_amount']}, Value in USD: {trade['token_amount_usd']}"
                send_telegram_message(alert_message)

                }
            }
        }
        ws.send(json.dumps(message))
        print("Message sent, listening for The-Token trades...")
    thread = threading.Thread(target=run)
    thread.start()

• Replace your_api_key with your actual API key.
• Replace your_telegram_bot_toekn with your actual bot token.
• Replace your_chat_id with the chat ID where you want alerts to be sent.
• Determine the contract address of The-Token on the blockchain you are monitoring. Replace ‘the_token_contract_address_’ with the actual contract address of The-Token.

This script will continuously run and print updates about relevant trades as they occur, based on your provided criteria and connection setup.

• Choose a hosting service: Deploy your bot on a cloud platform like AWS, Heroku, or a dedicated VPS to ensure it runs 24/7.
• Set environment variables: Store sensitive information like your API keys and bot token in environment variables to keep them secure.

• Perform functional testing: Test all components of your bot in a controlled environment to ensure they work as expected.
• Monitor and optimize: After deployment, monitor the bot’s performance and optimize the code, API usage, or server configuration if necessary.

• User instructions: Provide clear instructions for users on how to interact with your bot.
• Continuous monitoring: Regularly check the bot’s operation, update its functionalities as needed, and ensure it remains compliant with any changes in the Telegram or Mobula APIs.
