Crypto markets never sleep — they run 24/7. That means if you trade manually, you’ll either spend hours glued to your screen or miss opportunities while you’re away. The good news? You can automate your strategy so it executes trades for you, around the clock.
Here’s a simple three-step process to get started:
Start with a ready-made strategy or indicator, or create your own using Pine Script. The key requirement is that your setup must include alerts. Without alerts, your strategy can’t communicate with your exchange.
If you’re building your own in Pine Script, double-check that the strategy has alert conditions coded in — for example, when your buy or sell signals appear.
Next, you’ll need a bridge between TradingView and your exchange. Most exchanges or third-party services provide a webhook URL along with the message format your alerts must follow. This is what allows TradingView to trigger actual trades on your exchange account.
Think of the webhook as the “messenger” that carries your trading signals out of TradingView and turns them into real orders.
Now, head back to TradingView. Open your strategy, click “Add Alert”, and select your alert condition. Paste the webhook URL and enter the required parameters (the JSON message format you got from your exchange or service).
Once you hit create, your TradingView strategy is live and ready to trigger trades automatically.
Automation doesn’t mean you stop optimizing — you can still backtest, tweak, and improve your strategy. But once it’s automated, your trades become consistent and hands-free.
Final Thoughts
Automating your crypto strategy with TradingView is simpler than many traders realize. With the right alerts, a webhook connection, and a solid strategy, you can turn TradingView into a 24/7 trading engine.
