How do you set an Ethereum price alert on Telegram?
To set an Ethereum price alert on Telegram, create a DoneRoad alert for ETH, add a condition such as ETH < 2,800 OR ETH > 3,400, connect Telegram once from your notification settings, and save. DoneRoad checks the ETH price every minute and messages your Telegram chat when the rule is met. No code or exchange account is needed.
Many people watch ETH the hard way: open the chart, refresh, close it, open it again ten minutes later. One well-chosen alert replaces that habit. You decide in advance, while calm, which prices would make you act, and then you stop watching until one of them arrives.
Why get Ethereum alerts on Telegram instead of an exchange app?
Ethereum alerts on Telegram arrive in one chat you already use, on both phone and desktop, regardless of which exchange you trade on. Exchange app alerts live inside each exchange's app, so anyone with accounts on several exchanges ends up with several alert lists and several sets of notification settings.
A Telegram message also stays in the chat, so you have a record of when each ETH level broke. If you prefer another channel, make Discord, browser push or email your primary instead; alerts go to that one channel.
Should an ETH alert watch one price or a band?
An ETH alert should usually watch a band rather than one price. A single "ETH hits 3,000" alert fires on a round number that price crosses constantly. A band sets two decision levels, one where you would add and one where you would trim, and joins them with OR so either edge triggers the alert.
ETH < 2,800 OR ETH > 3,400
One alert, two decisions. Below 2,800 you are interested in adding; above 3,400 you are interested in trimming. Anywhere in between there is nothing to do, and no reason to look at the chart. These numbers are an example; use the levels from your own plan.
A band also fixes a common bias. Traders tend to set only the alert for the outcome they want. Setting the invalidation side too means the alert tells you when you are wrong, not just when you are right.
How do you set up the ETH alert step by step?
Setting up an Ethereum alert on DoneRoad takes six steps: sign up, pick ETH, add the lower condition, add the upper condition with OR, read the plain-English preview, and connect Telegram. The whole setup takes about two minutes, is free during beta, and needs no credit card or software installation.
- Create a free DoneRoad account. You can also try the builder in demo mode first; your demo alert is copied into your account when you sign up.
- Pick ETH from the asset list.
- Add the first condition: price below 2,800.
- Choose OR and add the second condition: price above 3,400.
- Read the plain-English preview. It should say exactly what you meant. If it does not, the rule is wrong; fix it now rather than at 3am.
- Connect Telegram (the DoneRoad bot opens in Telegram and you press Start), select it as the channel, and save.
Which Ethereum alert conditions can you combine?
An Ethereum alert on DoneRoad can combine fixed price thresholds, percentage or unit changes over 5 minutes to 1 day, and moving averages such as EMA 200. Conditions join with AND, where all must hold at the same check, or OR, where any one is enough. The table shows common ETH setups and when each fires.
| Setup | Rule | Fires when |
|---|---|---|
| Two-sided band | ETH < 2,800 OR ETH > 3,400 | ETH reads below 2,800 or above 3,400 |
| Fast drop | ETH drops 5% within 1 hour | ETH is at least 5% below its price one hour earlier |
| Daily move | ETH rises 8% within 1 day | ETH is at least 8% above its price 24 hours earlier |
| Confirmed breakout | ETH > 3,400 AND 15M change ≥ +1.5% | ETH is above 3,400 and still up at least 1.5% over 15 minutes |
| Moving-average level | EMA 200 < 3,000 | The 200-reading exponential moving average falls below 3,000 |
Moving averages are computed from DoneRoad's one-minute price history, so an EMA 200 is the average of the last 200 one-minute readings, not a daily EMA 200. Until enough history exists, the condition simply does not hold rather than firing on a partial average. The methodology page explains how averages and price history work.

How do you watch ETH and BTC at the same time?
To watch Ethereum and Bitcoin at the same time on DoneRoad, create one alert for each coin and send both to the same Telegram chat. Each DoneRoad alert is built on one asset, so the ETH band and the BTC band are separate rules that land side by side in one conversation.
Keeping one alert per coin also keeps the message clear: when an alert arrives you know immediately which asset moved and which of its levels broke. For alert ideas on BTC and other coins, see crypto price alerts on Telegram.
What are the limits of an Ethereum price alert?
A DoneRoad Ethereum price alert is checked once a minute against prices from Binance and MEXC, with CoinGecko as fallback. A spike that reverses within the same minute is not captured, and the alert price can differ slightly from your exchange's price. Alerts are notifications only; DoneRoad never places trades or holds funds.
There is also no "equals" operator. A price sampled once a minute rarely lands exactly on a round number, so an "ETH = 3,000" rule would look correct and never fire. Use above or below instead.
FAQ
These are short answers to common questions about Ethereum price alerts on Telegram, covering cost, repeated notifications, alert channels and how the alert behaves when ETH hovers around a level. Each answer describes DoneRoad as it runs today, and the linked methodology page documents the full set of data sources and limits.
Is an Ethereum price alert on Telegram free?
Yes. DoneRoad is free during beta, with unlimited alerts, all assets and all four channels. No credit card is required.
Will the ETH alert spam me if the price hovers around my level?
DoneRoad applies frequency limits so the same alert does not fire on every one-minute check. Adding a momentum condition with AND also reduces alerts on brief wicks.
Can I get the ETH alert on Discord or email instead?
Yes. Set Discord, browser push or email as your primary channel and your alerts go there. Alerts are delivered to one channel at a time.
How long is the ETH alert history kept?
Every trigger is logged with details and kept for 90 days, so you can review what fired and when.
