I purchased a trading strategy, can I automate it with Autoview?

Autoview · Guide · Updated July 11, 2026

Short answer: yes, if it can produce an alert. Autoview doesn't care whether you wrote the strategy yourself or paid someone else for it. It reads whatever signal the strategy fires and turns it into a real order on your connected exchange. The strategy is your side of the deal; Autoview is the execution.

What Autoview actually needs from you

Autoview is a bridge, not a strategy provider. It doesn't generate signals, judge whether a strategy is any good, or promise a result. What it needs is an alert it can read: a symbol, a side, a quantity, and an order type, at minimum. Where that alert comes from is up to you.

Most purchased strategies land in one of two forms:

  • A TradingView Pine Script strategy. If the strategy is a strategy() script running on TradingView, its own alert placeholders ({{strategy.order.action}}, {{strategy.order.contracts}}, and the rest) can fill in most of an Autoview command automatically. The Pine Script strategy alerts guide covers exactly this.
  • A manual rule set, indicator, or PDF. No script, no auto-fill. You write the alert's command by hand from the rules the strategy gives you, the same way you would for any TradingView alert. Start with the automate TradingView alerts guide, which takes an alert from firing to a live order end to end.

Either way, the full parameter list, including stop loss, take profit, and trailing stops, lives in the command reference. This page won't repeat it; that's the page that owns it.

Two ways to connect it

Autoview runs on two surfaces, and either one can automate a purchased strategy:

  • The webhook platform. Runs on Autoview's servers around the clock and accepts a POST from anything that can send one, TradingView included. This is the current, primary way to run Autoview.
  • The Chrome extension. The older, browser-local surface, wired directly to TradingView alerts. It only trades while your machine and Chrome are on, and it keeps your keys in the browser rather than on a server.

The what is Autoview guide lays both out side by side if you're deciding which fits your setup.

Before you trust it with real money

Whatever the strategy, connect your exchange with an API key scoped to trading and reading only, never withdrawal; see are my API keys safe? for why that matters. Then dry-run the command with d=1 before you go live, exactly as you would for any alert, purchased strategy or not. That step catches a wrong symbol or a typo'd parameter before it costs you anything.

A note on what Autoview is. Autoview is an execution tool, not a trading or investment advisor. It places the orders a strategy's alerts tell it to, whether you wrote that strategy or bought it. It doesn't vet strategies, generate signals, or make any claim about the results you'll get. Trading carries risk of loss, and you're responsible for the strategy you choose to automate.
