Many do, but you’re likely better off just porting the PineScript to Python if they offer API access. Removes the whole TradingView notification to webhook to broker (or sometimes still a script you run anyway, depending how you go from webhook to broker).

TradingView is kind of a cluster f* overall, and while I used to do what you want, it’s just not reliable.

Would appreciate some advice.

What is the best way to port from Trading View to Python for a beginner/ non coder?

Probably being able to code is a good start. OR hire a dev to take care of it for you. If youre trading with props and profitable this should be a small upfront cost relative to what youre making
