Target Audience

Investors and Traders: Individuals or groups who actively trade Bitcoin and want to stay informed about significant price movements. This workflow is particularly useful for those who prefer real-time notifications and may not be able to monitor prices constantly.

Crypto Enthusiasts: People interested in the cryptocurrency market who want to receive alerts for specific price thresholds to make informed decisions.

Developers and Automators: Tech-savvy users looking to automate their investment strategies or notifications related to Bitcoin prices, leveraging tools like n8n for workflow automation.

Problem Solved

This workflow addresses the challenge of staying updated on Bitcoin's price fluctuations. By automatically checking the price of BTC in EUR every minute, it ensures that users are notified when the price exceeds €9000, allowing them to react promptly to potential trading opportunities or market changes.

Workflow Steps

  • Scheduled Trigger: The workflow starts every minute using a Cron job to check the current price of Bitcoin in EUR.
    2. Price Retrieval: It connects to the CoinGecko API to fetch the latest price of Bitcoin in EUR.
    3. Condition Check: An IF node evaluates whether the retrieved price is greater than or equal to €9000.
    4. Notification: If the condition is met, a Twilio node sends an SMS notification to the specified phone number, informing the user of the price increase.
    5. No Operation: If the condition is not met, the workflow simply ends without any action, ensuring efficiency.

    • Customization Guide

  • Change the Price Threshold: Users can modify the value in the IF node to set a different price point for notifications.
    2. Adjust Notification Settings: Update the Twilio node's 'to' and 'from' fields to customize the SMS recipient and sender numbers.
    3. Modify Message Content: Personalize the SMS message by editing the 'message' parameter in the Twilio node to include additional information or a different format.
    4. Change Frequency: Adjust the Cron node's trigger time to check the price at different intervals (e.g., every 5 minutes) based on user preference.
    5. Expand Currency Support: Add more currencies in the CoinGecko node to monitor Bitcoin prices in multiple fiat currencies.
