An HTTP Request node fetches the trending feed from the AlphaAI news API, where every story already carries tickers, sentiment and a 1 to 10 relevance score.\n3. A Code node keeps fresh stories scored 8 or higher, skips stories posted in earlier runs and builds up to 10 Discord embed cards with sentiment, confidence and likely price impact.\n4. A second HTTP Request node delivers all cards to a Discord channel webhook as one message.\n\n### Setup steps\n\n- [ ] Create a free AlphaAI API key at alphai.io (Account, API keys).\n- [ ] On the \"Fetch Trending News from AlphaAI\" node, add a Bearer Auth credential and paste the key without the \"Bearer \" prefix.\n- [ ] In Discord, create a channel webhook (Channel, Edit, Integrations, Webhooks) and paste its URL into the \"Post Alerts to Discord\" node.\n- [ ] Activate the workflow.\n\n### Customization\n\nAdjust the schedule interval, the relevance threshold or the number of cards per run in the Code node.",
