Trading And Safety
Discord is fast. Trading should still be deliberate.
The Flow
/trade Buy $100 of AMZNTrade It returns a review card with:
| Section | What to check |
|---|---|
| Details | Asset, action, quantity, option legs |
| Pricing | Market, limit, stop, debit, credit |
| Total | Estimated cost or credit |
| Account | Where the order will route |
Buttons
| Button | Result |
|---|---|
| Confirm | Places the order. |
| Cancel | Cancels the draft. |
| Open in Trade It | Opens the full trade page. |
If placement fails, the card shows the broker error and keeps a Retry button live.
Trade Alerts
Use /alert to share a trade idea without placing an order for yourself or anyone else.
/alert details:Buy $100 of AMZN note:Starter positionTrade It returns a public alert card with:
| Section | What members see |
|---|---|
| Note | Optional context from the person sharing the alert |
| Order Details | Asset, action, quantity, option legs, and order type |
| Price Details | Limit or stop instructions when included |
| Button | A Review & Trade button that opens Trade It |
Each member reviews the trade, edits anything they need like position size or limit price, and places the order through their own connected brokerage. The alert creator cannot execute trades for other members.
Account Targeting
You can let Trade It use your default account:
/trade Buy 5 shares of RKLBOr name the account:
/trade Buy 5 shares of RKLB in my ETrade accountIf there is more than one match, use /accounts and rerun with the exact account id.
Options
The bot handles both explicit contracts and plain-English option orders.
Good prompts:
/trade Buy 1 AMZN 290/300 call spread expiring Jun 5
/trade Buy 1 SPY call expiring Friday 10% OTM
/trade Sell 1 AAPL 330 call expiring Dec 5 limit 2.10Include call or put, expiration, quantity, and price instructions when you have them. If something is missing, the bot will ask you to rerun the command with the missing detail.
Auto-Execute
Auto-execute lives in the Trade It dashboard. Turn it on only when your default account and order settings are exactly how you want them.
Without auto-execute, Discord trades draft first.
