Telegram to KuCoin: copy channel signals to KuCoin Futures and spot
AlgoVesta copies signals from Telegram channels to your KuCoin account. It reads each post, opens the trade on KuCoin Futures with cross margin or on spot by the amount to spend, and places the stop-loss and take-profit. The KuCoin key needs General and Trade permissions and a passphrase.
How it works
Sign in once with your phone number; your joined channels appear in the dashboard.
Select the channels to copy and the market: KuCoin Futures or spot.
Key, secret and passphrase, with General and Trade ticked.
Start in paper mode, compare the fills with the channel, then go live.
Futures copies on KuCoin
KuCoin Futures is its own platform with contract-based sizes. AlgoVesta sends copied futures trades with cross margin, converts your amount and leverage into contracts and rounds to a size KuCoin accepts. The stop-loss and targets are reduce-only stop orders checked on KuCoin after the entry fills.
When a channel posts several targets, your allocation rule decides how much each closes: all at the first target, equal parts, or your own split.
Spot copies on KuCoin
For spot signals AlgoVesta buys by the amount to spend, which is how KuCoin market buys fill reliably. The stop-loss and take-profit are then placed as two stop orders on the exact quantity received. If the channel only gives a stop-loss, you can set a take-profit rule in the bot so every spot copy still has a target.
Messages that are not trades
Channels mix signals with commentary, results and promotions. A post that does not contain a usable signal is skipped and logged. A results post that mentions a coin and a percentage is not treated as an entry.
Cross margin and contract sizes
Copied KuCoin Futures trades use cross margin, which means open positions share the available futures balance rather than each having a fixed slice. That is one reason the maximum number of open positions and the daily-loss limit matter more on a busy channel.
Contract sizes on KuCoin Futures differ per symbol. AlgoVesta converts your amount into contracts and only opens the trade when the nearest valid size is within 20% of what you set; otherwise the bot card lists the sizes that would work.
Approve signals yourself, or let them run
Every bot can run in manual approval mode: each parsed signal waits as a card in the dashboard until you confirm or reject it. Once you trust how a channel is read, switch approval off and let the bot trade on its own rules.
To see how a specific channel post will be read before you connect anything, paste it into the free Telegram signal parser on this site. A stopped bot ignores incoming messages completely: nothing is opened and no approval cards appear.

Connect your KuCoin API key
Create the key in KuCoin with these permissions: General + Trade. Withdrawal and transfer stay disabled, because AlgoVesta never needs them: it can place and close orders, but it cannot move funds out of your account. KuCoin keys also have a passphrase that you choose when you create the key. Enter it in AlgoVesta together with the key and secret; it is encrypted the same way.
If you restrict the key to IP addresses, the AlgoVesta connection wizard shows the two server addresses to add. The full click-by-click guide, with what each KuCoin screen looks like, is in the help center.

Rules that apply to every order
- A stop-loss on every order: from the signal, or from your own percentage or distance. No stop-loss source, no order.
- A daily-loss limit that pauses new entries until the next UTC day.
- Maximum open positions and maximum trades per day per bot.
- A panic button that closes what AlgoVesta opened and leaves your own positions alone.
On crypto exchanges an order opens in about 4.1 seconds on average, from the signal arriving to a filled order with its protection attached, measured across AlgoVesta's own executions.
