Choosing Your Connection Method

There are two primary ways to connect your alpha sources to Shuriken. For most users, the Official Bots provide the simplest and most secure setup. For power users needing to access private groups, the “Bring Your Own Alpha” (BYO Alpha) method offers maximum flexibility.

We strongly recommend starting with the Official Shuriken Bots. They are purpose-built for security, simplicity, and respecting platform permissions.

Official Bots (Recommended)
Bring Your Own Alpha (Power Users)

Easiest Setup

Invite the bot to your Discord server, authorize, and you’re done. No personal accounts involved.

Secure & Permissioned

The bot only sees what you allow it to see, operating within the standard Discord permission model you already know.

Best for:

Most traders and alpha groups.
Community owners who want to provide signals to their members.
Anyone who wants a secure, “set it and forget it” solution.

Get your community owner to install the official bot! It’s the de facto way to connect your group’s alpha and the best way to ensure everyone in your group can benefit securely.
