Route Pine Script alerts to MT4, MT5 and cTrader
TheConnector receives your TradingView webhook, reads the Pine Script alert payload and routes the signal to the right MT4, MT5 or cTrader account. The free plan includes 10 accounts so beginner traders can test seriously before paying.
Accepted webhook payload
Use a JSON alert message that matches the fields parsed by TheConnector: action, symbol, risk or fixed volume, optional SL/TP and account routing.
- action aliases: buy/long, sell/short, buystop/buy_stop, buylimit/buy_limit, closelongshort/close_long_short
- fields: symbol/pair, risk, volume/lot, sl/stop_loss, tp/take_profit, price
- routing: account/accountCode, platform and streamId/id. The per-account webhook URL carries the access key.
Why 10 free accounts matter
Trading is hard and many beginner strategies need time before they become profitable. A free base offer reduces pressure and lets traders validate several demo or live accounts first.
- Test several brokers or terminals
- Keep demo and live accounts separated
- Grow only when the setup is proven
Technical flow
TradingView fires the alert, TheConnector accepts the webhook and the terminal robot receives only the routed instruction for its account.
- Stable JSON alert message
- Account-level routing
- Symbol mapping for broker suffixes
Webhook payload example
Keep payloads explicit: the account connector can route the alert only when the action, symbol and target platform are clear.
{
"action": "buy",
"symbol": "EURUSD",
"risk": 0.5,
"sl": 15,
"tp": 30,
"source": "TradingView",
"id": "tv-tradingview-pine-script-webhook-test-001",
"account": "DEMO-MT5-001",
"platform": "mt5"
}Alert pattern to adapt
Use this as a reading pattern, then adjust order size, symbols and account routing before any real use.
//@version=5
indicator("The Connector webhook", overlay=true)
fast = ta.sma(close, 9)
slow = ta.sma(close, 21)
longSignal = ta.crossover(fast, slow)
if longSignal
alert("{\"action\":\"buy\",\"symbol\":\"" + syminfo.ticker + "\",\"risk\":0.5,\"sl\":15,\"tp\":30,\"source\":\"TradingView\",\"id\":\"" + syminfo.ticker + "-" + str.tostring(time) + "\",\"account\":\"DEMO-MT5-001\",\"platform\":\"mt5\"}", alert.freq_once_per_bar_close)Limits to keep in mind
- Test each alert on a demo account before production.
- Broker, platform and network conditions still matter: validate the route before increasing volume.
- Use symbol mapping to adapt broker-specific names before sending live signals.
- A signal that arrives too late must be treated as expired rather than replayed.
