The Legend Telegram bot lets you trade directly from a chat. Open longs and shorts, manage orders, check your PnL, pull up charts, set price alerts, and climb group leaderboards — solo in a DM or with friends in a group chat. It runs on the same Legend account and wallet you use on the web and mobile apps. Nothing is a separate balance: a trade you place in Telegram shows up on the app instantly, and vice versa.

Open the bot

@legend_trade_bot — start a chat and send /start.

​
Connect your account

The bot recognizes you by linking your Telegram to your existing Legend account. This is a one-time setup.
1

Create a Legend account

If you don’t have one yet, sign up at app.legend.trade. Your trading wallet is created automatically.
2

Start the bot

Open @legend_trade_bot and send /start. Until you link, the bot works in read-only mode — you can look up traders and browse markets, but not trade.
3

Link Telegram in the app

In the Legend app, go to Settings → Connected accounts → Telegram → Connect. Telegram opens an authorization prompt; approve it and you’re returned to the app with your accounts linked.
4

You're connected

Back in the bot, send /start again. It now shows your live snapshot — equity, withdrawable balance, and open positions — and every trading command is unlocked.
Linking uses your existing Legend wallet — the bot trades from your main account, signed securely on Legend’s servers. No private keys are ever shared in chat. Moving money out (/withdraw, /export) is intentionally website-only.

​
Fund your account

The bot spends from your main Legend wallet, so funding happens on the app once:
  • Deposit on app.legend.trade (or the mobile app).
  • In the bot, /wallet shows your deposit address and current balances at any time.

​
Place your first trade

Every trading command works two ways: send it bare to be walked through step-by-step, or pass arguments to skip straight to the confirmation. 
/long btc 5 100
That’s a 5× long on BTC with $100 of margin — the order is TICKER LEVERAGE MARGIN. Confirm it and you’re in. Then:
  • /positions — see your open positions and unrealized PnL
  • /close btc — close it (append a percentage like /close btc 50 to close half)
Prefer to be guided? Just send /long with no arguments and the bot will ask for the ticker, leverage, and size one step at a time.
See the full list on the Commands page.

​
Trade with friends

Add the bot to a group chat to turn trading into a competition:
  • Group leaderboard — /leaderboard ranks everyone in the chat by PnL over 1d, 7d, 30d, or all.
  • Trade cards — when you trade, the bot posts a card of your fill to the shared group so everyone sees the action.
  • Referrals — invites sent from a group are attributed to the group, so you get credit for bringing traders in (/invite).

​
Privacy & ghost mode

By default, your fills are broadcast as cards to the group chats you share with the bot. If you’d rather trade quietly, turn on ghost mode — your trades stay private and are never posted.
  • The bot asks once, during onboarding, whether you want ghost mode on.
  • Change it anytime with /settings.

​
Custody & safety

  • The bot trades using your Legend session signer — it can place, modify, and cancel orders, but it cannot move your money.
  • Withdrawals and private-key export are website-only, by design (/withdraw and /export link you to the app).
  • You can unlink Telegram at any time under Settings → Connected accounts.
