Scan trade price asymmetry from Slack
Turn a Slack question about unusual trade pricing into a focused Bitquery price asymmetry query, helping your team investigate without manually screening every trade.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Price Asymmetry Metric
Tool to generate graphql priceasymmetry filter snippet. use when you need to filter trades based on price asymmetry metric.
Why this helps
Manually scanning a long trade list for pricing differences consumes attention and makes it harder to follow up consistently.
- Focus trade review on price asymmetry criteria.
- Keep the token, network, and period tied to the investigation.
- Reduce manual screening of records.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Bitquery to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to run price asymmetry checks requested in Slack.
- 3Use one instruction: When someone asks in a Slack channel for an unusual trade price scan and names the network, token, and period, query Bitquery with its price asymmetry filter and summarize the matching trades for review.
- 4Choose Channel Message Received as the trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real request that identifies a token and review window.
Questions about this workflow
What does the price asymmetry metric help with?
It generates a priceasymmetry filter snippet for filtering trades based on the metric.
Does a flagged trade prove wrongdoing?
No. The query identifies records that match the requested filter; the result needs contextual review.
What details should the request contain?
Name the network, token or trading scope, time period, and the kind of price differences to inspect.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Slack to Bitquery. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Slack triggers
Bitquery actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Aliases Metric
Tool to use graphql aliases to rename fields in the response for clarity and disambiguation. use when you need to query multiple metrics with identical field names in one call.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Archive Database Query
Tool to query the archive database. use when you need full historical blockchain data (delayed by tens of minutes to hours).
New Channel Created Trigger
Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.
Combined Database Query
Tool to query the combined database, which merges archive and real-time databases. use when you need both historical and up-to-the-second blockchain data in one request.
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Conditional Metrics Snippet
Tool to generate a graphql metric snippet with conditional logic. use when you need to apply filters directly on metric calculations via the `if` attribute.
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Count Distinct Metric
Tool to use the count distinct metric to aggregate unique values for a field. use when you need to count the number of unique occurrences in a dataset.
Message Reaction Added
Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Count Metric
Tool to use the count metric to aggregate the number of records matching a graphql query. use when you need simple record counts.
Message Reaction Removed
Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Database Selection
Tool to select the database (archive, realtime, combined) to query at the top level of a graphql request. use after determining whether you need live, historical, or combined blockchain data.
Reaction Added Trigger
DEPRECATED: use `SLACK_MESSAGE_REACTION_ADDED` instead. Triggered when a reaction is added to a message in Slack.
Early Access Program Query
Tool to access streaming data across various blockchain networks for evaluation purposes. use when querying chains not available via the v2 endpoint; limited to real-time data only.
