# Calls

# Calls

A call is recorded every time the bot answers a pasted address or link with a token card. There is no separate command.

## Recording a call

- An address or link that resolves to no price and no symbol produces neither a card nor a call.

## How multipliers for calls are calculated

The first call recorded for a coin is its reference. Every multiple, percentage gain and `Called by` figure is measured against the first call's market cap and price.

#### An unpriced first call gets its reference later

| Input | Output |
| --- | --- |
| Call line before a price exists | `🎯 Called by <a href="tg://user?id=777">@chris</a> (no market cap at the time)` |
| Call line once a price is found | `🎯 Called by <a href="tg://user?id=777">@chris</a> at <b>$900M</b>` |

A repeat call, including one by the original caller, never replaces the reference.

## The call graphic

Every call, and every milestone alert, is sent with a generated image.
