Webhook Configuration

A webhook is equivalent to an alert configured in TradingView. Each webhook you create will receive signals from a single TradingView alert. It's important to understand that one webhook = one alert.

Once the webhook is created, you can connect it to multiple MT5 accounts through the Connection Editor, allowing you to distribute signals from that alert to different brokers or accounts.

Start here—it's simple: in most cases you do not need to change your strategy code or the webhook JSON for take profit and stop loss to work. Your strategy already defines when to open and when to close. When price hits the TP or SL from the strategy logic, TradingView sends a close alert; we receive it and your account executes the close. That is why you usually won't see TP/SL lines on the MetaTrader position: the exit happens when that alert arrives, not because those levels were stored on the broker ticket. That is normal and expected—not a mistake.

So the extra feature on this page is optional. Use it only if you want TP and SL to appear on the MT5 order (e.g. prop firm rules, checks, or personal taste). Same idea of execution—just visible levels on the ticket.

If you do want broker-style TP/SL on the MetaTrader order, you can send levels with each signal without editing the webhook JSON. Your strategy must add a fixed text block in the order comment when it opens (or adjusts) a trade. TradingView forwards that comment automatically. Details below.

Put this block inside the order comment (you may add your own words before or after; keep the braces and spelling exact):

{TradingPineLab:tp=X,sl=X,applyOptionsToAllOrders=false}

• tp (optional) — TP price to set on the order.
• sl (optional) — SL price to set on the order.
• applyOptionsToAllOrders (optional, default false) — If false, TP/SL apply only to the order executed by that signal. If true, all open positions for the same strategy (same webhook / symbol) are updated to the same TP/SL.

For a single entry you can send for example:

{TradingPineLab:tp=123.45,sl=122.10}

If you edit your strategy in TradingView (Pine Script), a typical pattern is: compute prices, then pass them in comment=. Use commas between tp, sl and applyOptionsToAllOrders:

tempTP = close + (close * 0.01)
tempSL = close - (close * 0.01)
strategy.entry('Bull #1', strategy.long, qty = baseOrderSize, comment = 'Compra TEST {TradingPineLab:tp=' + str.tostring(tempTP) + ',sl=' + str.tostring(tempSL) + ',applyOptionsToAllOrders=true}')

Replace baseOrderSize with your size variable or fixed quantity.

Valid examples:

{TradingPineLab:tp=1.2345,sl=1.2300,applyOptionsToAllOrders=true}
{TradingPineLab:tp=1.2345,applyOptionsToAllOrders=false}
{TradingPineLab:sl=1.2300,applyOptionsToAllOrders=true}
{TradingPineLab:tp=123.45,sl=122.10}

Once the webhook is created, you need to connect it with your MT5 accounts. This is done in the Connection Editor:

1. Go to the Connection Editor
2. Drag the webhook from the left list to the canvas
3. Drag an MT5 account to the canvas
4. Connect them to create a Mapping between both
5. Configure the symbol in the mapping. This symbol will be the one used by the connected account
6. Save the connection
