Capture market moves for deliberate review
When a move catches your attention, put the facts and your review questions in one draft.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
A fast market move can prompt a rushed decision or get forgotten before you have time to look at the details.
- Capture webhook-supplied prices or movement details for later review.
- Keep your own review questions alongside the supplied facts.
- Create a draft without sending or trading.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Alpaca and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to draft a note from the webhook's supplied market move details and include the review questions you specify.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and check the note against the webhook payload.
Questions about this workflow
Does this decide whether I should trade?
No. It prepares a note from supplied information for your review and does not make or execute trading decisions.
Can Notis detect any price move by itself?
This workflow starts when a Notis webhook arrives. Your process needs to send the market move details in that request.
