TradingView Setup

Complete guide to connecting TradingView alerts to Trade Wzrd webhooks for automated trade execution.


This guide walks you through sending trade signals from TradingView to Trade Wzrd via webhooks.


Setup Steps

Step 1: Create a Webhook in Trade Wzrd

  1. Go to Automation > Webhooks
  2. Create a new webhook and select your target accounts
  3. Copy the webhook URL

Step 2: Create a TradingView Alert

On your TradingView chart, click the Alert button (clock icon) or right-click the chart and select Add alert. Set up your strategy condition as usual.

Step 3: Configure the Webhook URL

In the alert dialog:

  1. Under Notifications, check the Webhook URL box
  2. Paste your Trade Wzrd webhook URL

Step 4: Set the Alert Message

In the Message box, enter your signal using the comma-separated format. Use TradingView’s {{ticker}} placeholder for the symbol:

Simple buy signal:

Sell with pip-based SL/TP:

Dynamic SL/TP with price values:

Close signal:

Partial close:

Breakeven:

Multi-command (close and re-enter):

Step 5: Save the Alert

Click Create. TradingView will send the signal to your webhook URL whenever the alert condition triggers.


TradingView Placeholders

You can use any TradingView placeholder in your signal:

Placeholder Description
{{ticker}} Symbol name
{{time}} Bar open time
{{interval}} Chart timeframe
{{open}} Bar open price
{{high}} Bar high price
{{low}} Bar low price
{{close}} Bar close price
{{volume}} Bar volume

Using Price Values for SL/TP

When you use price values (like {{low}} or {{high}}) for stop loss and take profit, you don’t need to specify TPSLTYPE=PRICE - price is the default:

Only specify TPSLTYPE=PIPS when your SL/TP values are pip distances:


Multi-Command from TradingView

Separate commands with semicolons in the same message box:

This closes the existing position and immediately opens a new one.


Symbol Handling

TradingView’s {{ticker}} returns symbols in various formats depending on the exchange. Use manual symbol mapping in your webhook’s advanced account config if the format doesn’t match your broker:

TradingView Exchange Example Solution
Forex FX:EURUSD Map FX:EURUSDEURUSD
OANDA OANDA:EURUSD Map OANDA:EURUSDEURUSD
Crypto BINANCE:BTCUSDT Map BINANCE:BTCUSDTBTCUSDT
Metals XAUUSD Usually works with auto mapping

Alternatively, enable Auto symbol mapping to let Trade Wzrd fuzzy-match signal symbols to your broker’s format.
