How to Setup And Start Trading
1. Open TradingView Chart
-
- Open TradingView and go to Supercharts on your desktop computer (not working on smartphones)
- If you don’t have an TradingView account yet please create one – it’s free.
2. Add the Strategy To Your Chart
-
- Click on “Indicators”, go to “invite-only” and click on the strategy. If the strategy shouldn’t appear it could be that you haven’t access yet – In this case please wait until you have access (You will be notified per email).

3. Customize Your Settings (Click on “settings” on the strategy)
-
- Leverage: Increase the leverage for more risk (higher returns, higher drawdowns) or decrease it for less risk (lower returns, lower drawdowns). 3 is standard, but you can change it to your individual trading style. The drawdown shouldn’t be too high and never exceed 100%, because this will result in an error and in real trading into a stop out and full loss.
It’s calculated like this: leverage * order size (which is default 100% of equity) - PineConnector license ID: If you want to automate your trading, you can do so by using PineConnector. Down below you find more information about how to set up PineConnector for automated trading. You can insert your license ID here. Otherwise you don’t need to change anything here.
- Broker ticker/symbol: If you want to use PineConnector for auto trading you need to insert the ticker/symbol of your broker here to open and close positions correctly at your broker. You find more info down below on how to set up.
- Startdate: Here you can select a date from when the strategy should start to work. You need to set it to an actual date (today) to get the order sizes calculated correctly for alerts and auto trading.
- Show Performance Table: Show and hide the performance table.
Attention: TradingView has a bug right now, so after hiding it can be that the strategy isn’t visible anymore. In this case please go to indicators and add it once again to your chart. - Color: Change the color of bearish and bullish signals.
- Leverage: Increase the leverage for more risk (higher returns, higher drawdowns) or decrease it for less risk (lower returns, lower drawdowns). 3 is standard, but you can change it to your individual trading style. The drawdown shouldn’t be too high and never exceed 100%, because this will result in an error and in real trading into a stop out and full loss.

-
- Set the start date in strategy settings to today
- Click on “Alerts”
- then “+”

- use “alert() function calls only”

-
- When you get a notification of the strategy from TradingView take a look at it.
