TL;DR
This guide shows how to use AutoForward.net to automatically forward XAUUSD/EURUSD trading signals from private Telegram groups to internal channels — under 1 second latency, no Bot API required.
Why You Need This
If you follow multiple Telegram signal groups, the main problems are:
- Private groups don't allow bots (only real user accounts)
- You need to monitor screens 24/7
- Every second of delay = missed entry opportunity
Telegram Bot API cannot access Private Channels unless you're an Admin. AutoForward uses a User Session (real phone number login) to bypass this limitation.
Prerequisites
- AutoForward.net account (Free or Pro plan)
- Telegram number already a member of the source signal group
- Destination channel already created (you must be Admin)
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Connect Telegram
Go to Dashboard → Setup → Connect Telegram, enter your phone number and OTP. Takes about 1 minute.
Step 2: Create a Forward Rule
Go to Rules → New Rule, fill in:
| Field | Example Value |
|---|---|
| Source | Signal group name or ID |
| Target | @your_internal_channel |
| Filter | Leave empty (forward all) |
| Delay | 0 seconds |
Step 3: Add Keyword Filter (Optional)
If the source group has mixed content, use Regex to capture only signals:
(BUY|SELL|TP|SL|ENTRY|XAUUSD|EURUSD)
Step 4: Activate the Rule
Toggle Enabled → Rule starts immediately, running 24/7 in the cloud.
AutoForward vs Bot API Comparison
| Criteria | AutoForward (User Session) | Telegram Bot API |
|---|---|---|
| Access Private Channel | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
| No Admin rights needed | ✅ Yes | ❌ Required |
| Latency | < 1 second | 1–3 seconds |
| Setup time | 5 minutes | 30+ minutes |
Expected Results
After setup, every message from the signal group is automatically forwarded to your internal channel in under 1 second. You can add multiple sources to one rule (Pro plan: up to 10 sources).
FAQ
Does AutoForward store signal message content?
No. Messages are processed in temporary memory and forwarded immediately. AutoForward does not store message content on its servers.
Will my Telegram account get banned?
AutoForward mimics normal user behavior. However, avoid forwarding more than 20 messages/minute per session to prevent FloodWait errors.
