Why WhatsApp for price alerts?

Most alert services send notifications to an app you have open on your trading screen, or to an email you check once an hour. WhatsApp is different: it reaches you instantly, wherever you are, on the device you always have with you.

For traders in West Africa, India, Brazil and most of LatAm, WhatsApp is the primary communication channel — not a secondary one. Getting a price alert there means you actually see it when it matters.

The problem: until recently, almost no modern alerting platform supported WhatsApp delivery. TradingField was built specifically to close that gap, alongside Telegram, Discord, email and push.

What you can set alerts on

TradingField tracks prices across four asset classes:

  • Crypto — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, BNB, XRP and more
  • Forex — EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, XAU/USD (Gold) and major pairs
  • Stocks & indices — major US and international equities
  • BRVM — Sonatel, Ecobank, Orange CI, BOA and the full list of West African exchange shares

Any of these can trigger a WhatsApp message the moment the price hits your level.

Step-by-step: set up WhatsApp alerts

  1. 1

    Create a free TradingField account

    Go to tradingfield.app/signup. The free plan includes 5 active alerts with no credit card and no time limit.
  2. 2

    Connect your Telegram or WhatsApp

    In your dashboard, go to Settings → Notifications. Click Connect Telegram (WhatsApp delivery goes through a Telegram bridge — your WhatsApp number is linked once, then alerts flow directly). Follow the one-click connection flow.
  3. 3

    Create your first price alert

    Go to Alerts → New alert. Search for the asset (e.g. BTCUSDT, EURUSD, or SNTS for Sonatel on the BRVM). Set your condition:
    • Price above a threshold
    • Price below a threshold
    • Price moves by X% in 24h
  4. 4

    Select WhatsApp as a delivery channel

    In the alert form, check WhatsApp (and optionally Telegram, Discord, email or push). Save the alert.
  5. 5

    Done — wait for the market to move

    TradingField monitors prices around the clock. The moment your condition is met, you receive a WhatsApp message with the asset, your condition, the current price and a link to set a follow-up alert.

Frequently asked questions

Is WhatsApp delivery free?

Yes. WhatsApp notification delivery is included on all plans, including the free plan. The free plan allows 5 active alerts.

Do I need to install anything on my phone?

No. You only need WhatsApp (already installed) and a TradingField account. No app, no browser extension, no coding.
