Start forex monitoring from a private Slack request

Capture a currency-pair monitoring request in a DM and let Notis start the stream.

Trigger

Action

Get Real-Time FOREX WebSocket Stream

Why this helps

A quick market check can become a repeated distraction when there is no simple way to start following a pair.

  • Make a private note actionable without opening another research tool.
  • Specify exactly which pairs should receive live updates.
  • Keep monitoring requests separate from unrelated team discussion.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and EODHD apis to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis to set it up in plain language.
  • 3Tell Notis in one instruction to start a real-time forex stream for the currency pairs named in a DM request.
  • 4Select the Direct Message Received trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a DM that names one or more specific currency pairs.
