Configuring Live Trading Message Push and Its Rate Limit

Article FMZ guides

Summary

The guide explains how to route messages from live trading programs through mobile app notifications, verified email, or a custom WebHook destination. It describes enabling each channel in account settings and how strategies can trigger pushes through log output, trading-library settings, or a visual message-push module. The exact options depend on the strategy language and environment.

Pushes are rate limited: in each 20-second interval, only the most recent message is retained, while earlier messages are filtered out. This makes the feature suitable for alerts and status updates, but means a burst of messages will not all reach the configured destinations. The document is operational guidance rather than a trading method and provides no performance evidence or discussion of alert reliability beyond this limit.

Key ideas

  • Messages from live strategies can be routed to mobile app notifications, verified email, or a configured WebHook.
  • Strategies can trigger pushes through log output, built-in trading-library settings, or a visual message-push module.
  • Only the latest message in each 20-second interval is delivered, so earlier messages in that period are discarded.
  • Push configuration delivers operational alerts and does not establish any trading signal or performance benefit.
