Connecting TradingView to FirmGated.

How it works

TradingView fires an HTTP POST to your FirmGated webhook URL every time your alert condition is met. FirmGated reads the JSON in the message body, checks it against your safeguards and account rules, then routes the trade to your broker. You do not need to keep TradingView or your browser open — the alert fires from TradingView’s servers directly to FirmGated.

Pine Script strategy template

When your alert is attached to a strategy() script, TradingView can fill in the values dynamically using built-in variables. Use this template in the Message field:

// Paste this into TradingView alert Message field
// for use with a Pine Script strategy()

{
  "ticker": "{{ticker}}",
  "action": "{{strategy.order.action}}",
  "quantity": {{strategy.order.contracts}},
  "price": {{strategy.order.price}}
}

Indicator-based alerts

If your script uses indicator() instead of strategy(), TradingView does not provide dynamic order variables. Create two separate alerts — one for entries and one for exits — each with its own hardcoded JSON:

// For indicator()-based alerts, create two separate alerts:
// One for BUY entries, one for SELL entries.

// BUY alert Message:
{
  "ticker": "NQ",
  "action": "buy",
  "quantity": 1
}

// SELL alert Message:
{
  "ticker": "NQ",
  "action": "sell",
  "quantity": 1
}
