Executing TradingView Webhook Commands for Spot and Futures

Summary

This tutorial describes a command-driven bridge between TradingView alerts and an exchange execution bot. Incoming messages use an action-and-amount format. The bot distinguishes spot from futures accounts, sets price and quantity precision, and maps supported commands to buys and sells. For futures, the command set also covers opening or closing long and short positions, plus paired close-and-reverse actions.

The example supports market orders or orders priced from the current bid or ask, and records account status and the most recent command while polling for new messages. The document is primarily an implementation example rather than a tested trading strategy: it provides no signal-generation method, performance evidence, or risk controls such as position limits. Exchange contract configuration and the action semantics must match the connected account, and the tutorial notes that webhook request formatting requires encoding the command payload.

Key ideas

• TradingView alerts can pass action-and-amount commands to an execution bot.
• The bot selects spot or futures handling based on the configured exchange type.
• Futures commands cover opening and closing long or short positions, including close-and-reverse actions.
• Orders can use market execution or prices derived from the current bid or ask.
• The example reports account state but does not define signals, performance, or position risk limits.
