Do I need a wallet address?

Not for traders: follow them by FOMO or GMGN handle. For any other wallet, paste its public address.

Can I trade from LFG Alarm?

No. It only watches public trades and prices and wakes you.

Is any of this financial advice?

No. These tools tell you something happened. What you do about it is up to you.

Wallet alarms watch Solana, and Ethereum, Base, BNB, Arbitrum and Robinhood Chain. Price alarms cover majors and any token with a contract.

Crypto alert apps compared: Cielo, Nansen, GMGN, FOMO and more

Start with how you want to hear

Most comparisons of crypto alert apps list features. The question that actually decides it is simpler: where are you when the alert fires?

At the terminal, trading. Alerts inside Axiom, Trojan, GMGN or TradingView are right there, and you can act in the same screen.
In Telegram all day anyway. Cielo, GMGN bots and RayBot drop alerts into the chats you already read.
Asleep, at work, or away from screens. Then the alert has to be loud enough to reach you. That is where phone calls (Cryptocurrency Alerting, Stock Alarm) and alarms (LFG Alarm) come in.

Many traders use one tool from the first two groups for the steady flow of information, and something from the third for the few moments worth interrupting their night.

How the tools compare

Tool	Follow a wallet by	How the alert arrives
Cielo	Wallet address	Telegram, Discord, web
Arkham	Address, or a labelled entity	Email, Telegram, webhook
Nansen	Wallet address	Telegram, Discord, Slack, webhook, and its Nansen AI mobile app
GMGN	Wallet address	Telegram bot, iOS and Android apps
FOMO	A FOMO username, for people on FOMO	App push
RayBot	Wallet address	Telegram, Discord, webhook
Axiom, Trojan, BONKbot	Wallet address	Inside the trading terminal while it is open
Cryptocurrency Alerting	Wallet address (EVM chains, Bitcoin, Tron)	Push, email, SMS, an automated phone call, Telegram, Discord, webhook
Stock Alarm	Price alerts, not wallets	Push, email, a phone call
TradingView	Price alerts, not wallets	Push, email, sound in the open app, webhook
DEX Screener, CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap	Price alerts, not wallets	App notifications
LFG Alarm	A pasted wallet, a FOMO trader or a GMGN KOL by handle, or a token	An alarm with its own sound on your phone

Two of these can reach you on the phone: Cryptocurrency Alerting can call you and read the alert out loud, and Stock Alarm can call you for price alerts. In the rest we found no mention of alerts that ring through silent mode or keep ringing until you answer. Several wallet trackers deliver mainly through Telegram, and GMGN's own documentation warns that Telegram's limits can drop alerts at busy times.

What we found nowhere else: following a named trader over a size floor, and sharing the alarm so a whole group is rung at once.

What makes LFG Alarm different

No address needed for traders. Follow a FOMO trader or a GMGN KOL by their handle. Paste a wallet only when you want one.
A floor. A pasted wallet rings over $1k, $2k, $5k or $10k; a FOMO trader's buys over $5k, $10k or $25k, with every sell; a GMGN KOL over $100, $500 or $1k.
It rings. On Android it is a full-screen alarm, even on Do Not Disturb. On iPhone it arrives as a time-sensitive alert with the alarm's own sound, which can come through Focus but respects the silent switch; keep the ringer on.
Prices too. A specific price (rings when it goes above), a drop of -5% to -50% or nuke (-99%), or a multiple from 2x to 1000x, measured from the live price when you arm it.
The whole chat can ride it. Share a trader alarm with your group and everyone is rung at once.
No wallet connection, nothing to sign, no trading in the app. It only reads public trades.

Where the other tools are stronger

Analytics and labels: Arkham and Nansen label wallets and give you deep on-chain research.
Volume: Cielo tracks hundreds of wallets on its free plan.
Trading: terminals such as Axiom and Trojan let you trade on the spot; LFG Alarm does not trade.
Charting: TradingView is the place for technical alerts on charts.

Many people use one of these for research and LFG Alarm for the few moments worth waking up for.

A typical split

Elif researches wallets in Nansen and follows thirty of them in Cielo's Telegram bot, which she reads over coffee. Two of those wallets matter more than the rest: one deployer wallet on a token she holds, and one FOMO trader whose sells have called tops before. For those two she sets LFG Alarm, Sells on the wallet at $5k and Sells on the trader, and shares the trader alarm with her trading chat. The Telegram feed is her morning reading; the alarms are her night shift.

Make it in the app

On Alarms, tap 📈 Onchain. On lfg.gm, tap Create, then Onchain.
