Can you execute trades with pinescript?

Yes, I can do that using TradingView alerts and a webhook.

a webhook to what? the trading platform?

Yeah, also I have custom programs running on a server, which gives me more control over my positions and allows me to finetune my entries and exits.

So pinescript itself, cant execute the trade in tradingview? It can do everything else but spend you money, which makes sense I suppose.

Or is it your broker isn’t on tradingview?

Everything I’ve looked at seems to suggest you can automate trades in tradingview but it’s been a while since I looked into it.

Your server running metatrader?

You cannot automate trades directly through the Trading Panel on TradingView. You need to set up an alert in your Pine Script strategy and use a webhook to connect to a broker that supports this functionality.

For the server I’ve primarily focused on crypto brokers such as Binance and Bitget, as their APIs have been simpler to integrate with so far. That being said, getting MetaTrader to work shouldn’t be an issue.
