You sign up for TradingView, thinking that it is “only charts”, but quickly discover that it is more like a commercial operating system. This is not AI – in a classic sense – it's more like a bot Launchpad. You build strategies in a pine script, test them and fire notifications that can be found in executive systems. Do you already have adrenaline pumping?
What exactly is Tradingview?
Tradingview is above all Platform for creating charts and strategies-used in actions, crypto, on the Forex market, goods, indicators-in the scope of backward formation, scripts, community code and notifications in real time. He does not implement the transaction himself – but he is strictly integrating with the services of the third party bots via Alert Webhooks.
Yes, it is a tool for building and validating AI style strategy – but the execution lives elsewhere. Imagine TradingView as an engine room in which data meet decisions, and bots except release from orders after meeting the conditions.
Feature trip: what brings (and omits)
- Builder Strategy Strategy Pine Scenario
Write or improve strategies using a built-in or non-standard RSI CROSSOVERS code, MacD triggers, candle patterns, you call it. Testing test directly on the chart. - System of alerts with webhook support
You define the conditions, deposit webhook url and load format – integration platforms, and then work on alerts to perform real transactions. - Community and market
Lots of common scripts and strategies. You can import community tools, read feedback and adjust it. Great intelligence resulting from the crowd. - Paper trade simulator
Run your strategies in demonstration mode before risking real money-super-helping in debugging and building trust. - Data and broker integration
Get access to historical data in real time and connect with brokers through tools of other companies such as Tickerly, Cornix, Wundertertading, Traderpost, etc.
My journey: from configuration to (almost) live transaction
I started writing a simple strategy of the Pine Crossover script, he passed it through the Back test – it looked promising. This noise of charts becomes green? Priceless. Then I configured a notification with an online trial bot supplier. Set it on paper.
Week one: notifications launched, logged in transactions. P & l paper? Meh – small pips here, small losses. I felt like a boat control through the fog: promising but annoying when they hit dry.
Then the community script borrowed the designation of the reversal candle pattern, which coincided with the sudden ETH movement. I saw an alert, jumped to myself – not fully automated. This small 2% traffic on paper seemed validation. Emotional high.
But one morning he warns that an error (error in my code), and this caused that I spiral to debug the strategy. The social forum was life – some had exactly improvement. This is empathy in the code.
Table of professionals
| Professionals | Disadvantages / reservations |
| Super -PINE SCENARIA EDITOR + RECEIVE TESTING | Steep learning curve if you do not cod or script |
| A huge community and strategy market | The execution is not indigenous – Needs external BOT services |
| Supports multidimensional strategies, alerts, detailed logic | Alerts and scenarios often behind the payment levels |
| Live and live chart simulator | No direct trade function |
| Works in many asset classes around the world | The risk of excessive strategy optimization in the past |
How is it
There were mornings, I woke up to inform the pinging of the phone – like mission control. Other times, nothing fired all day, and I agreed for the second time. Emotional swings – a frustration mixed with frustration.
Seeing P&L Zero Out or GO Red, I was struck more strongly than expected. However, debugging scripts – directing the code after a false alert – which is strangely satisfying. She is proud of blending errors, seeing your logic catching a breakthrough.
Prices and value
TradingView has multi -level subscription plans. Free level gives basic charts; Paid levels unlock notifications, multi -ecological strategies, extended data, number of alerts. No direct cost of trade automation – but you will pay bot services separately. Platforms such as Tickerly or Cornx Start ~ 19-39 USD/month after tests (Turn0search13, Turn0search2)
In total, the price is reasonable – you have control over expenses, mixing the strategy building on trade with a separate layer of workmanship.
Final verdict (my two cents)
Tradingview is not AI -Cot Turnkey – it's a canvas in which you design your bots. If you are cool with writing or adjusting the strategy, testing them and connecting to external tools, this platform is gold. He doesn't do everything for you – but it authorizes you to make most of them.
If you expect a bot-off bot-off all-in-one-will solution, you had to look elsewhere or build the missing elements.
Suggested approach to use
- Master Pine Script with small scripts.
- Reverse test with strategy tester; Debugging problems.
- Set alerts with the appropriate webhook format and load.
- Use trusted automatic services of third parties (Tickerly, Cornix, Traderpost).
- Requires paper intensively before life.
- Monitor diaries, follow performance, periodically provide a strategy.
To sum up: should you use TradingView?
Yes – if you want to learn the scenarios, test thoroughly and manually perform the performance. It becomes powerful in the right hands: a precise tool for traders who like to build and not receive a black box.
Do you want to help create a pine script template or configure loads of alerts for Webhook? I am glad that I can help mapping.
