Automations show in the left panel with a toggle each, and D0 proposes the next one itself. Automations are rules D0 watches on a schedule and acts on: a daily recap, a multi-condition alert, a screen that runs every morning. You create them in chat, and they live in the **Automation** module of the left panel, each with its schedule and an on/off toggle. ## Ask once, get the result The chat home opens on *What would you like to discover today?* with the composer set to **Ask D0 or describe an automation**. The **Approve each** control next to it decides whether D0 asks before every action the automation takes. The chat home with the composer, three starter prompts, the D0 noticed list, and four starter cards **D0 noticed** is the part to watch. D0 proposes automations from what you already do: *You screened BSC tokens four times this week. Automate a daily screen?* → **Automate it**. *SOL funding flipped negative. Shorts are being paid to hold.* → **Review setup**. One click turns the observation into a rule. ## Describing a rule > **You:** Set up an automation to monitor Solana for a long entry setup, when a sharp selloff reaches a defined support level and a reversal candle prints a long lower wick showing buyers stepping in, then closes back above support. When the setup confirms, alert me with the support level, a suggested entry, a stop below the wick low, and a target. > > **D0:** Set up **SOL wick-reversal long setup**. It checks closed 15-minute SOL spot candles every 15 minutes, using the lowest low of the prior 20 candles as support. It flags a ≥2% selloff over four candles into support, followed by a candle that closes back above support with a lower wick at least as long as its body. The alert suggests entry at that candle's close, a stop 0.1% below its low, and a target at 2R. It's informational only and will not trade; qualifying newly confirmed setups may alert again on later checks. What D0 does with your sentence: 1. Asks for the signal rules and trigger thresholds it needs, or fills them with suggested defaults. 2. States the rule back: cadence, data source, the exact conditions, what the alert will contain, and where it is delivered. 3. Adds the automation to the **Automation** module, where you can pause or re-enable it. D0 replying with a portfolio change summary and follow-up actions Chat-built automations are **informational** unless you give them an action path. To let D0 trade a rule, run a strategy from the [Strategy Library](/strategies/strategy-library), which requires a daily loss cap, or set an explicit boundary for automated execution. See [Automated Trading](/features/automated-trading). ## Price alerts Simple threshold alerts (*Alert me when SOL goes above \$150*) are the lightest automation. They appear in the same module and fire to the chat, the Inbox, and Telegram if connected. See [Price Alerts](/features/price-alerts). ## Tips **Start with one observable trigger and one bounded action.** Keep the first workflow small enough to review by hand. **Read the readback.** D0 states every rule it set. If a number is not what you meant, say so in the same thread and it adjusts. **Pause before changing assumptions.** Toggle the automation off, edit, toggle on. ## What's next * [Strategy Library](/strategies/strategy-library): automations that trade * [Price Alerts](/features/price-alerts) * [Scheduled Automations](/use-cases/scheduled-automation): worked examples This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
