Telegram
Cielo provides free users with one Telegram bot. Any wallets or tokens you enable alerts for will automatically be assigned to this bot. However, Pro + Whale members can access two and six bots respectively.
This allows you to map specific tx types to a specific bot. For instance, you could use one bot for your own wallets, another for NFT traders, and another for DEX whales.
To activate your Telegram bots, in the Cielo web app visit Alerts.
To change which bot a wallet is assigned to, on the configure page, click the edit icon alongside the wallet name. In the popup that appears, click the dropdown titled Telegram bot. Pick a desired bot and then hit Save changes.
Bypassing the Cielo web app
It's possible to use the Cielo as a standalone Telegram bot, without pairing it to the Cielo web app.
However it's recommended that you use the bot in conjunction with the Cielo web app. The app is free to use and its interface makes it easier to adjust wallet settings than doing so within Telegram. If you'd rather just use the Telegram bot on its own, however, read on.
To initialize the Cielo Wallet Tracker bot, open it in Telegram and press the blue Start button.
Press the blue menu icon to view wallet settings:
The following options are displayed:
Add wallet or token: Input the address and label for a wallet you wish to track or the smart contracxt address for a token.
List: View all of the wallets that you're currently tracking. You can then click on the edit option beside each wallet to adjust its settings.
Menu: View master menu that includes options for setting group and channel alerts.
Bot settings: Opens options to disable bot or reset chat.
Adding a wallet
To add a wallet using the Telegram bot, click the blue menu icon followed by the top option that appears: Add new wallet or token.
Then click the Wallet button and paste in the wallet address followed by a space and then an optional name for the wallet e.g. My Trading Wallet. By default, all of the chains that Cielo tracks are enabled. If you wish to disable alerts for any of these chains, just click the relevant button to disable the selection.
When you're done, click Confirm. You'll then see the following screen for controlling tx types:
Click on a tx type you wish to disable and then hit Confirm. You will now see the following notification:
And that's it: you're now tracking your first wallet using Cielo's Telegram bot.
Adding a token
To start tracking a token, repeat the procedure described above but select the Token button. You will then see the following option:
Select your desired chain, enter the smart contract address for the token and hit return. You can find this in a block explorer or using a market data site such as CoinGecko.
You will now be asked to set a DEX swap threshold. This is to prevent you from being overwhelmed with alerts for popular tokens.
Enter a value (demoninated in USD) and press return or hit Skip if you wish to receive alerts for all swaps, regardless of size. You will now see the following notification:
Editing wallets + tokens
To edit a wallet or token you're tracking, click the blue menu icon followed by the /list option. This will produce a list of all wallets you're following.
Click the blue edit link beneath the address to make an edit to the wallet or token. In addition to adjusting which chains and tx types are enabled (wallet) and the minimum tx size (tokens), you can disable alerts or delete the address altogether.
To re-enable alerts for a particular address, just repeat the process above and click the Enable button when prompted.
Alert settings
Pro and Whale users can opt to have market cap and liquidity information displayed in bot alerts for token swaps. To enable this, in the web app check the Display Market Cap and Liquidity button in Settings > Advanced.
By default, Cielo Wallet Tracker alerts include a Chart link, where applicable.
Cielo allows you to choose which trading terminal you would like the Chart link to direct to. To adjust this setting, click the blue menu icon in the Cielo Wallet Tracker to pull up the main menu and then select Alert Settings followed by Chart.
Then choose which of the four available terminals you would like to use for charting and hit Confirm.
Viewing contract address
To trade a token that is displayed in the Cielo web app or Telegram bot, the contract address is required. Upon pasting this into a DEX such as Uniswap or an aggregator like Dexscreener, you can trade the token in question. There are a number of ways to obtain the contract address:
1. Click the ViewTx link to inspect the transaction in a block explorer.
2. Click Chart to view the tx in a platform such as Gecko Terminal.
3. Enable one-click contract address copy within Telegram.
To enable the latter option when using the Cielo Telegram bot, select Menu > Alert Settings > Show Token Address. When activated, this displays the contract address with each tx alert, allowing you to trade tokens faster and on the platform of your choosing.
Telegram trading with Banana Gun
Using Cielo Telegram bots, you can execute trades directly within Telegram with Banana Gun. Cielo has integrated Banana Gun allowing you to click the Buy on Banana Gun link that appears in Cielo Telegram alerts.
Disclaimer: Trading tokens, particularly new memecoins, is risky as there is a high chance of financial loss. It is the responsibility of each user to research any asset they wish to purchase and to acknowledge the risks inherent to Telegram trading. Cielo has no control over the Banana Gun bot used for executing swaps and is not liable for losses incurred due to tokens losing value due to rug pulls and major sell-offs.
tl;dr DYOR.
To enable Telegram swaps, create a Banana Gun bot. You can then click the Buy on Banana Gun link displayed in Cielo alerts to instantly buy the token in question.
If you don't wish to see a Banana Gun link, you can disable this option in the Settings menu or within the Cielo Telegram bot menu by selecting Menu > Alert Settings > Banana Gun.
