# Automating TradingView Strategy Alerts in Tradier

**Last Updated:** August 19, 2026  |  **Published:** August 18, 2026

---

## **Introduction**

Automating TradingView strategy alerts in Tradier allows you to send real-time orders directly from your strategy or indicator alerts using PickMyTrade. This guide walks you through setting it up for stocks and options.

---

## **1. Select Tradier as Your Broker**

From the PickMyTrade interface, choose your broker as:  
**TRADIER**

[Connect Tradier with PickMyTrade – Easy Setup Guide](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/docs/connect-tradier-with-pickmytrade-easy-setup-guide/)

This ensures that all generated alerts will be routed for execution into your connected Tradier account.

![Pickmytrade - Select broker](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/image-1024x421.avif)

---

## **2. Choose Strategy or Indicator Alert in TradingView**

Select the appropriate alert type based on your TradingView setup:

- **`STRATEGY`**: For alerts generated by a TradingView strategy (e.g., Supertrend Strategy, RSI Strategy). This uses the Strategy Tester and automatically triggers alerts when a strategy’s logic executes.
- **`INDICATOR`**: For alerts based on chart conditions (e.g., RSI crosses above 70). This does not use the Strategy Tester and is based on plotted conditions or alert functions.

![Pickmytrade - Indicator or Strategy ](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/image-1-1024x310.avif)

---

## **3. Choose Asset Type for Tradier Execution**

Pick the asset type that corresponds to your Tradier instrument:

- **Stock** (e.g., AAPL, TSLA)
- **Options** (e.g., AAPL Call 210 May 27)

This tells PickMyTrade how to structure the trade format (contract vs shares, etc.).

![Pickmytrade - Instrument type](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/image-2-1024x249.avif)

---

## **4. Enter the TradingView Symbol for Strategy Alerts**

Enter the symbol used in your TradingView chart.

**Example:** `AAPL` for Apple Inc. stock.

![Pickmytrade - Enter Symbol](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/image-3-1024x242.avif)

> This field is **optional**, but becomes **mandatory** if you’re using:

- Stop Loss / Take Profit type = **Ticks**
- Stop Loss / Take Profit type = **Total Profit / Loss**

If the symbol is missing or incorrect, PickMyTrade may default to the chart symbol or fail to map orders correctly.

---

## **5. Managing Exit Rules in Automated TradingView Strategies**

Determine how exits will be handled in your strategy:

![Pickmytrade - Strategy ](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/image-4-1024x418.avif)

### Option 1: No SL/TP (Strategy Controlled Exits) [#](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/docs/automating-tradingview-strategy-alerts-in-tradelocker/#3-toc-title) {#3-toc-title}

- Select this if your TradingView strategy fully manages entries and exits
- PickMyTrade will NOT place any Stop Loss or Take Profit orders
- All exits will be executed only when TradingView sends exit alerts

**Use this when:**  
Your strategy already includes complete exit logic

---

### Option 2: Attach SL/TP to Orders {#4-toc-title}

- Select this if your strategy does NOT handle exits
- PickMyTrade will place Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) with each entry

**Features:**

- Choose SL/TP type (percentage, price, Total Profit/Loss, etc.)
- Only **one SL and one TP per order** is supported

**Use this when:**  
You want simple, fixed risk management handled by PickMyTrade

You can refer to the Stop Loss / Take Profit Types guide in PickMyTrade for exact formulas and examples. [Click here](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/docs/automating-tradingview-indicator-alerts-in-tradier-for-stocks-and-options/#11-toc-title)

---

### Option 3: Multiple Exits (TP1, TP2, etc.) {#5-toc-title}

- Select this if your TradingView strategy uses multiple take-profit levels
- PickMyTrade will NOT require SL/TP configuration
- All exits will be executed based on TradingView alerts

**Note:**  
When using multiple exits, SL/TP cannot be attached to the entry order.

**Use this when:**  
Your strategy scales out of positions (partial exits)

Here’s an example of how multiple exits work:

- Your strategy enters a **long position with 3 contracts**.
- **TP1** is hit → the strategy sends **Sell 1**, leaving a **long position of 2 contracts**.
- **TP2** is hit → the strategy sends **Sell 1**, leaving a **long position of 1 contract**.
- **TP3** is hit → the strategy sends **Sell 1**, bringing the **net position to 0**.

If, instead of reaching the take-profit levels, the trade hits the **stop loss**, your strategy should send a `**close**` or `**flat**` signal. PickMyTrade will then close the remaining open position and cancel any active or pending orders for that symbol, leaving the **net position at 0**.

---

## **6. Connect Tradier Account for Automation**

This section explains how to add your Tradier account to PickMyTrade for automated execution. You can either connect your Tradier login within your current PickMyTrade account or link it across multiple PickMyTrade accounts.

**6.1 Adding a **Tradier**** **Account in Your Current PickMyTrade Login**

Use this option if your Tradier login is already connected to the same PickMyTrade account you’re currently using.

![Pickmytrade - Account Management](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/image-5.avif)

| Field Name | Example Input | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| PickMyTrade Conn. Name | Tradier | The Tradier connection name from your PickMyTrade account |
| Tradier Acc. Name | VA1152416 | The actual Tradier account where trades should be sent |
| Option | Quantity Multiplier | Choose how trade size is calculated |
| Quantity Multiplier | 1 | If set to 2, all trade sizes will be doubled |

Make sure your Tradier connection is active and verified in the account.

---

**6.2 Adding a Tradier Account from Another PickMyTrade Login**

Use this setup if you want to send trades into a different PickMyTrade account — useful when managing multiple logins

![Pickmytrade - Account Management](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/image-6.avif)

| Field Name | Example Input | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| PickMyTrade Token | abcd1234xyz | Token from the external PickMyTrade account you want to trade through |
| PickMyTrade Conn. Name | Tradier | Must match the Tradier connection inside that target account |
| Tradier Acc. Name | 4805264 | Must match exactly as registered in Tradier |
| Quantity Multiplier | 1 | All trade sizes are multiplied by this number |

Ensure the PickMyTrade token is copied accurately and the Tradier connection exists in the destination account.  
Execution will fail if the mapping is incorrect.

---

**6.3 Generate Alert Code for Strategy Execution**

Once all accounts are added and configured, click **Confirm & Generate Alert** button.

![Pickmytrade - Alert message](https://docs.pickmytrade.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/image-8-1024x436.avif)

1. Copy the **alert message /JSON**

3. Paste the **alert message** into the **Message field**
4. Paste the **Webhook URL** provided by PickMyTrade
