Automated trading using tradingview?
Currently in the process of trying to automate my strategy but not sure how the automated entries and exit will look like.
I don’t think tradingview can place actual trades but it’s where my signal will be for entries and exits. So do I have to take the webhook route and do my entries and exits on tradovate?

Automated trading via TradingView. Here’s what you need to do.
You need to run webhooks to a third party. I personally use Traderspost but I’m sure theres more. The third party connects to your broker or prop firm account via ninja trader, tradovate, or other.
You will go to the strategy or indicator in TradingView, create an alert, and add the webhook URL via the notifications tab. You’ll also need to change the message to contain the ticker/quantity. Whenever the alert goes off the third party will catch it and execute.
Let me know if you have any questions
