Connect TradingView Strategy to Your Broker

If you have an automated strategy on Trading view and you have backtested it, the next step is to connect it to your broker for automatic execution of your trades. Unfortuntely, TradingView doesn’t support native connection between your strategy and broker trading orders. We are here to establish this connection.

Configuration

  2. search the security you would like to trade in search bar and open chart

3. insert your strategy and add it to chart

4. create a new Alert.

On the Broker side, you must generate an API Key and Secret for connection to TradingView. The steps are dependant on the broker software. But the steps should be similar. we give example below.
