What IfexTraderBot does
Real-Time NGX Signals
Daily pre-market and post-market signals for Nigerian Stock Exchange equities, based on technical analysis of price action and volume.
Forex & Crypto Alerts
USD/NGN, BTC/USD, ETH/USD and other pairs. Set your own alert thresholds — the bot messages you when your conditions are met, not before.
Portfolio Tracker
Log your positions directly in the chat. The bot tracks your P&L in real time and sends a daily summary at 6PM Lagos time.
Risk Management Nudges
The bot flags when a single position exceeds 20% of your stated portfolio size, and reminds you of stop-loss levels you set yourself.
Educational Briefings
Weekly 'Market Monday' briefings in plain Nigerian English — no jargon, no assumed knowledge. Understanding the why, not just the signal.
Community & Referrals
Refer a friend and unlock premium signal tiers. A growing community of Nigerian retail investors sharing notes in a moderated group.
Why Telegram?
Nigerian retail investors live in Telegram groups. Signals, tips, and market news already flow through Telegram — but most of it is unstructured noise from anonymous sources. IfexTraderBot brings structure, data, and accountability to where investors already are.
No app to download. No new login to remember. Type /start and you’re in.
The Technical Stack
Building a reliable trading bot taught us a great deal. The core is Python with FastAPI for the signal engine, Redis for low-latency alert delivery, and Azure Functions for the scheduled jobs (market open/close, daily summaries, weekly briefings). The Telegram Bot API handles all user interaction.
We wrote a detailed blog post on the architecture decisions, the mistakes we made, and what we would do differently.
Risk Disclaimer
IfexTraderBot provides information and analysis, not financial advice. All trading carries risk. Do not invest money you cannot afford to lose. Past signal performance does not guarantee future results.
Beta Access
The bot is in active beta. Join via Telegram: @IfexTraderBot — or mention it in a contact form message for priority access.
