Hey Dennis, could you please explain 3 things?

1. How do you create push notifications in your "Telegram Recon Bot". Bc, I have notifications only when I press any option, like "/help" or "/ordertrade";
2. How do you transfer the notifications from the bot to your channel, this is another mystery?
3. How do you create "Type: as BUY or SELL", instead of "Type: 0 (buy) or 1 (sell)" how do you have it in the file - PlusBotRecon.

Really appreciate your answer.
Dantese

Hi Dennis,
Thanks for the great post/tutorial. Your code is working as EA. I am trying to use the snippets from it inside and indicator to send the telegram message to a channel but couldn't. Could you please post a code snippet to send telegram message when some event happens (e.g. MA crossover etc, MA Price crossover) etc. ? Your help is highly appreciated.

Hello Dennis,

I keep getting following error message when trying to send a picture with SendPhoto command: {"ok":false,"error_code":400,"description":"Bad Request: chat not found"}.

The sendMessage command to my channel works perfectly though.
Your help is highly appreciated.
