From TradingView Alert to a Live Order

The chart is not the exchange

A Pine strategy that only paints on TradingView has not traded. The alert has to leave TradingView — usually as a webhook — and land on something that can place an order: MetaTrader, an Indian algo desk, or a bridge you control.

Pineconector exists for that hop. You keep thinking in Pine. The fill happens on the desk you already use. You still own the strategy and the risk.

Write alerts the bridge can parse

Use alert() with a stable syntax. If the payload changes every time you edit the script, the bridge will misfire. Decide once-per-bar-close versus once-per-bar, and live with repaint behaviour honestly.

Repainting scripts look clever in replay and lie in live alerts. If the historical arrow would not have been there at bar close, do not automate it.

Keep the receiver online

A webhook that hits a laptop in sleep is a missed trade. If execution is MT5, put the terminal on a Windows VPS. Pineconector plus a SevenTicks VPS is a common pairing — two products, one job: the alert arrives and the EA or bridge is awake.

What we will not build

We write Pine you can publish or keep private. We will not help disguise a signal service as a 'tool' if that is the real product. SevenTicks sells software. We do not run other people's books onto your account.

SevenTicks sells software and hosting. We do not manage your money or recommend trades.
