Common Errors

"Strategy Limit Reached"

Your workspace has hit the maximum number of strategies allowed by your current plan. Delete unused strategies or upgrade to a higher plan. See Usage & Limits.

"Source Limit Reached"

You've reached the maximum number of data sources for your plan. Remove disabled or unused sources, or upgrade your plan.

Checklist not completing

If the Create Strategy button stays disabled, check the creation checklist in SMITH. Common blockers:

  • No initial state — right-click a state and select "Set as Initial"
  • Fewer than two states — add at least two states
  • A state has no transitions — every state needs at least one outgoing transition
  • Context not configured — open the toolbar and configure context

Data source stuck in "Pending First Payload"

Your data source was created but hasn't received its first webhook yet. Verify:

  1. The webhook URL is correctly pasted into your data provider
  2. The authentication token is included in the payload
  3. Your data provider is actually sending data (check TradingView alert history, for example)

"Invalid token" on webhook

The authentication token in your webhook payload doesn't match the one FORJ generated for the data source. Copy the token again from the data source settings and update your provider configuration.

Strategy not processing events

If your strategy is enabled but nothing is happening:

  1. Check that a data source is Active and sending data
  2. Verify the strategy is subscribed to the correct data stream (see Data Streams)
  3. Look at the strategy's last event timestamp on the HEARTH tile — if it's updating, events are arriving but conditions may not be passing

Alerts not arriving

If you configured alerts but aren't receiving them:

  1. Verify you have an active alert subscription matching the alert's kind and severity
  2. Check the delivery channel — in-app notifications appear in the app, while email/webhook deliveries may have delays
  3. Review the Alert Activity page to see if triggers are firing but deliveries are failing
