If you already get trade calls as desktop banners, Trade Desky is built to grab those banners, parse strike and expiry, and hand the intent to your broker.
Trade Desky Watcher, not a server bot
Products that invite a Discord bot see every channel message in a guild. We only see what the OS shows you. That is slower to set up on a new machine and stricter about “computer must be awake,” and it avoids storing a bot token in a foreign server.
Discord-style option text (ticker, BTO/STC-style actions, strike, expiry). Garbage in still fails validation. We do not scrape Discord message history in the cloud.
Alert capture FAQ
Do I invite a Discord bot? No. Trade Desky does not join servers. The desktop app captures operating-system notification banners, including Discord’s, after you grant notification permission.
Why no webhook URL? Ingest is tied to your signed-in device token. You do not paste a per-user webhook into a Discord channel or Zapier.
What if Discord is on my phone only? The watcher runs on macOS or Windows. Phone-only notifications never reach the ingest API.
Your next alert could be an order.
