If you try many times but still fail, this is because Telegram API has blocked your telegram account from connecting to the Telegram API for many reasons (because the Telegram API is overloaded or your phone number account is a temporary account... ). Therefore:

  1. If the cause is due to Telegram API overload, do this step again after the next 24 hours. Because the Telegram account information related to your phone number will be automatically reset by the Telegram API every 24 hours.
  2. If after several days of doing this you still don't succeed, consider creating and using a Telegram account from a real phone number, from a large, reputable phone service provider.

CHANGE THE OPTIONS

Delay time sending text to txt file:

Sometimes the signal channel sends a series of signals at the same time. The Telegram Reader app can send these signal texts to the txt file very fast by deleting a previous signal text and saving a new signal text with a very fast speed.

In this case, a problem is you can miss some signal texts because the EA can't trade fast like that. After received a signal text, the EA will send the trading parameters to the broker. It can take up to 1 second from the time the EA places an order until the broker accepts and executes the order. This time period may be longer if the network connection is not good and there are too many orders placed at the same time.

This delay time... function to sold this problem.

Telegram Reader app will collect the signal texts in sequence and send each of them to the txt file in sequence with interval of 2 seconds (default value). The 2 second time is the best time to ensure the signal will be fully executed on the Metatrader program. However, you can reduce this number to 1 second if you have a powerful computer and fast connection. In this case, keep an eye on the system to check if the system misses any trading signals.

P/S: You cannot set the delay time in milliseconds because this is not necessary. 1 second is the shortest time for the EA to scan and place orders on Metatrader 4, it cannot be smaller because of the EA programming language.
