# UpScalp Lite Bot Commands and Alert Settings

**Last reviewed:** 2026-06-03.

Use this reference when you want to subscribe to UpScalp Lite, check the current market status, or change Lite alert settings in Telegram.

Lite is for market updates and awareness. Premium is the full signal feed.

## Command list

| Command     | What it does                                |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| `/start`    | Subscribes you to UpScalp Lite updates.     |
| `/stop`     | Unsubscribes you from UpScalp Lite updates. |
| `/help`     | Shows the Lite command list in Telegram.    |
| `/market`   | Shows the current market status.            |
| `/settings` | Opens your Lite alert settings.             |

## What Lite can send

UpScalp Lite can send market-focused alerts such as:

1. Market regime updates
2. BTC market flip alerts
3. BTC movement alerts
4. Scheduled market summaries
5. Sentiment updates
6. Turn or flip alerts
7. Exposure warnings when the bot detects relevant market-risk context

Lite may also show occasional public signal alerts when they are available.

Premium users receive the fuller signal experience, including Premium scanner commands, deeper filtering, and the full Premium signal feed.

## Subscribe or unsubscribe

Use `/start` to subscribe to Lite updates.

If you are already subscribed, the bot tells you that you are already subscribed.

Use `/stop` to unsubscribe from Lite updates.

After `/stop`, the bot stops sending Lite market updates to that Telegram chat. You can use `/start` again later.

## Check market status

Use `/market` when you want the current market read.

The market status can include BTC regime, risk level, 1-hour trend, volatility, funding, open-interest trend, volume and liquidity context, market conditions, sentiment, system posture, trend-turn pressure, and a short watchlist section when available.

The exact fields shown can vary depending on current data availability.

## Change Lite alert settings

Use `/settings` to open your Lite settings panel.

The Lite settings panel lets you turn these alert types on or off:

| Setting           | What it controls                  |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------- |
| Market Summary    | Scheduled market-summary updates. |
| Sentiment Updates | Market sentiment updates.         |
| Turn/Flip Alerts  | Market turn and BTC flip alerts.  |

Changing a setting affects the Telegram chat where you use the command.

## Lite and Premium commands are different

Lite does not use the same command set as Premium.

Use the Premium bot for Premium scanner commands such as `/best`, `/focus`, `/check`, `/stillgood`, `/watch`, `/stats`, `/strategies`, and `/guards`.

Use the Lite bot for `/start`, `/stop`, `/help`, `/market`, and `/settings`.

## When to contact support

Contact support if:

1. `/start` does not subscribe you to Lite updates.
2. `/stop` does not unsubscribe you.
3. `/market` does not respond.
4. `/settings` opens but your alert changes do not save.
5. You expected Lite alerts but no updates are arriving.

Include your Telegram username, the Lite bot you used, UTC timestamp, the command or setting used, and a screenshot of the bot response.
