How to Edit a Signal
You can modify your signal's settings at any time without affecting its webhook URL or connected bots. This lets you update strategy details, change direction settings, or adjust the ticker symbol as your trading approach evolves.

Accessing Signal Settings
In the Signal Library, locate the signal you want to modify. In the Actions column on the right side of the table, click the pencil icon to open the Edit Signal dialog. This opens the same configuration interface you used when creating the signal.
What You Can Change
The edit dialog lets you modify all of your signal's core settings. You can rename the signal if your strategy focus has changed or if you want clearer identification among multiple signals. The ticker symbol can be updated if you're switching the underlying asset for this signal source. The description field is always editable, so you can refine your strategy notes or document changes to your approach.
The Default Direction setting can be changed between "Defer to Bot," "Calls Only," and "Puts Only." This is particularly useful when you want to flip a signal from bullish to bearish (or vice versa) without creating a new webhook. Any direction changes apply to all future signals received through this webhook.
Important Considerations
Editing a signal does not change its webhook URL, so you don't need to update your signal provider connections. All bots currently connected to this signal remain connected after you save changes.
Changes to the Default Direction setting only affect new incoming signals. Any trades already triggered by this signal remain unchanged. If you modify the ticker symbol, make sure the new ticker is valid and matches what your signal provider sends, or orders may fail validation.
Saving Changes
After making your edits, click the save button to apply changes. The signal immediately uses the updated configuration for all future incoming webhooks. You can edit signals as often as needed - there are no limits on how many times you can modify a signal's settings.
