Connect TradingView Signals

Send TradingView strategy alerts to Alphafox through a webhook, then use that source to run an automated trading strategy. The setup has three parts: create the source in Alphafox, configure the TradingView alert, and bind the source to an Alphafox strategy.

Only new strategy order events are received after the alert is enabled. Historical orders and existing positions are not backfilled.

Step 1: create the signal in Alphafox

Open TradingView signal management

Go to Account Center → Copy Signal Management and find TradingView signal management.

Create the signal

Click Create signal and enter a name that identifies the strategy, such as “BTC daily breakout.”

Copy the connection settings

After creation, Alphafox shows two values:

Webhook URL: paste this into TradingView’s Webhook URL field;
Alert message JSON: replace the complete TradingView alert Message with this JSON.

You can reopen Details from the signal list to copy both values again.

The alert JSON contains your private signal token. Do not share the Webhook URL or alert JSON. If either is exposed, delete the signal and create a new one.

Step 2: create the TradingView strategy alert

Open a strategy alert

Load the strategy on a TradingView chart and click Alert. Select the strategy as the condition rather than a standard price alert, and keep the alert interval aligned with the chart and strategy interval.

TradingView strategy alert condition and interval settings — Select the strategy you are connecting to Alphafox and keep the interval aligned with the chart.

Replace the Message

Open the alert’s Message settings, remove the existing content, and paste the complete Alert message JSON from Alphafox. Do not edit placeholders such as {{strategy.*}}, {{ticker}}, {{exchange}}, or {{timenow}}.

TradingView alert message editor — Remove TradingView's default message before pasting the complete JSON generated by Alphafox.

Alphafox alert JSON pasted into TradingView — Keep every TradingView placeholder in the JSON unchanged.

Configure the Webhook URL

Open Notifications, enable Webhook URL, and paste the Webhook URL shown by Alphafox.

Webhook URL field in TradingView notification settings — Enable Webhook URL and paste the address shown in the Alphafox signal details.

Save the alert

Confirm the strategy, symbol, interval, Message, and Webhook URL, then apply the settings and create the alert. The alert should appear as enabled in TradingView’s alert list.

Enabled TradingView strategy alerts — After creation, confirm that the strategy alert is enabled in the alert list.

TradingView versions may place Message and Webhook URL on different tabs, but both values must be saved on the same strategy alert.

Step 3: use the signal in Alphafox

The source becomes available to TradingView strategies as soon as it is created:

Open New Strategy from the sidebar;
Select the TradingView signal strategy under the copy-trading category;
Choose the TradingView signal source you just created;
Select the execution account, finish risk and notification settings, and create the strategy.

Standard exchange copy strategies do not show TradingView sources. Select the TradingView strategy template first.

If signals are not arriving

Check these in order:

The TradingView alert is enabled and the strategy has produced a new order event;
The alert condition is the strategy, not a price condition;
Message exactly matches the generated Alphafox JSON, with no extra text or missing placeholders;
Webhook URL is enabled and contains the complete URL;
The Alphafox strategy uses the intended TradingView source and execution account.
