How to set up and receive events from TradingView​

TradingView Alerts refer to immediate notifications that are generated when your customized market criteria are met. To receive these alerts and stay updated in real-time on Cyborg's website and app, here's a comprehensive guide on how to set up alerts on TradingView.

Notes:

  • To access this feature, you need to upgrade to TradingView Pro.
  • It's important not to share your webhook URL with others to avoid receiving false messages
  • All TradingView alerts are sent based on the user's settings and are not related to the Cyborg platform

Step 1: Get your Cyborg webhook URL:​

You can do this in one of two ways:

a. From the "New Flow" Button​

  • After filling out your New Flow details popup you will see the following window
  • Please click on Copy for the Cyborg webhook URL.

  • From the menu, select View Webhook.
  • Click the Copy button below the webhook URL to copy your webhook.

Note: Please make sure to copy our required JSON format, which can be found via clicking the View Webhook button, below the webhook URL.

Step 2: Set alerts on TradingView via your Cyborg webhook URL.​

We can create a couple of differrent types of alerts, including but not limited to Price, Indicator, and Strategy alerts.

a. Price Alerts​

  • Click on Alert in the navigation bar.
  • Set your alert preferences in the Create Alert window, including trigger price, trigger frequency, expiration time, alert notification channel, message and more.
  • Paste the required JSON into the message input.
  • Paste the required webhook into the webhook URL in the notifications tab.
  • Please make sure all of the information you’ve entered is correct, then click on Create.

c. Strategy Alerts​

Using TradingView's PineScript scripting language, you can make sophisticated trading strategies and set alerts on them.

  • Click on the Pine Editor tab at the bottom of the TradingView interface.
  • You can find pre-made strategies at https://www.tradingview.com/scripts/.
  • Alternatively, you can write your own strategies, following the PineScript documentation found here.

Once set up, every time an alert triggers it will be automatically and immediately sent to Cyborg for analysis.

On Cyborg, you can view the history of your alerts on the Home page. They can be filtered by flow, start time and end time and analytics such as RVOL, turnover, returns and volatility.
