Is Autoview dead? No. It's live in 2026.
"Autoview reached end of life in January 2025." That line sits inside a competitor's "best Autoview alternatives" roundup, and for a lot of traders it's the first thing they ever read about us. It's wrong. But it grew out of something real, so let me show you exactly what happened.
Google killed Manifest V2. Every Chrome extension had to move to Manifest V3 or get pulled from the store. Autoview began as a V2 extension, and when the migration hit, we published a new V3 listing rather than converting the old one in place. The old listing stayed up for a while marked end of life, and it has since come down. "Autoview shut down" is the part someone invented on top of that.
Here is what is actually running today.
The extension
Rebuilt on Manifest V3, on the Chrome Web Store right now, updated regularly. Checked on 2026-10-02, the store listing shows version 1.37.0, last updated September 27, 2026, with about 3,000 users. That is an extension still getting releases, not one at end of life. The version shipping in the codebase can run slightly ahead of what the store page displays, so check chrome://extensions for the version installed on your own machine rather than trusting either number blindly. If an old bookmark drops you on an empty store page, that was the original V2 listing, which has been taken down. Use the link above instead.
The platform
This is the part the "is it dead" posts miss completely. Autoview executes through a webhook, and the webhook does not care whether a browser is open anywhere. You send an alert to your private Autoview URL, we parse it, the order goes to your exchange. Most people send that alert from TradingView. You don't have to. Anything that can POST to a URL can drive it. The browser was always optional. The execution engine is the actual product, and it has not stopped running.
"Not dead" and "operationally verified" are different claims
Everything above proves the first, narrower claim: the extension listing, the marketing site, and the status page are all publicly reachable right now, which is what "not dead" actually means here. None of it, on its own, proves the second, stronger claim, that every listed venue, webhook, and command currently works end to end for you. A page loading is not the same as an order filling. The only way to get the stronger claim is to run the reproducible test in the next section yourself, on your own account, rather than take this article's word, or any single status page, for it.
Supported venues, dated
As of 2026-09-11, the current venue list spans four asset classes. Confirm the live list at autoview.com/platforms before connecting, since coverage changes independently of this article.
| Feature | Venues |
|---|---|
| Forex | OANDA, Capital.com |
| Futures | Tradovate |
| US stocks / options | Alpaca, TradeStation, Charles Schwab |
| Crypto | 12+ exchanges including Binance, Bybit, OKX, Kraken, Coinbase, Crypto.com, KuCoin, Bitget, Gate, Gemini, Bitfinex, HTX, HyperLiquid, Deribit |
The activity
"Dead" is a claim about activity. Thousands of verified accounts are connected, and live trade webhooks flow through around the clock. We shipped guided setup wizards this spring. We're still adding exchanges. That is not a graveyard.
And it was never crypto-only
This is the real reason the "alternatives" framing misleads. Most of those alternatives are crypto bots. Autoview runs your strategies on forex through OANDA, futures through Tradovate, stocks through Alpaca, and more than a dozen crypto exchanges including Crypto.com, Kraken, Bybit, OKX, and Coinbase. If you trade more than one asset class out of TradingView, that spread is the whole point, and a crypto-only bot cannot match it.
Don't trust me. Check.
I would rather you verify this than believe a page on our own site:
- Open the current Autoview listing on the Chrome Web Store and read the last-updated date. (If an old bookmark lands you on an empty store page instead, that was the retired V2 listing.)
- Look at autoview.com and the pricing page. Both show the live exchange list.
- Make a free account and fire a test order at a demo or testnet exchange. Several connections are free, so you can watch a fill happen end to end without putting up real money.
A Manifest V2-to-V3 migration hit the entire Chrome store, Autoview published a new listing instead of patching the old one, and a competitor turned the leftover old listing into an obituary. The current extension is live. The platform is live. If you read otherwise, look at who was selling you the alternative.
