Routing TradingView Alerts to FMZ Bots Through a Webhook

Summary

This document describes a signal-routing setup in which a TradingView Pine alert sends a webhook message to a locally hosted service, which then forwards a command through FMZ’s API to a running trading bot. It covers configuring the alert’s expiration, webhook address, and message format, obtaining API credentials and a bot identifier, and interpreting the received command inside the FMZ strategy to select an action.

The article shares an example service and describes operational measures the author used after experiencing service failures, including log monitoring and scheduled restarts. It also notes a port requirement for the alert endpoint. The material is an integration guide rather than a trading strategy, and it does not evaluate signal quality or trading performance. Its example includes sensitive API handling and a simple command parser, so reliability and secure credential management remain important implementation concerns.

Key ideas

• TradingView alerts can pass strategy signals to a local webhook receiver for forwarding to an FMZ bot.
• Alert expiration, endpoint configuration, and a consistent message format are needed for routing.
• The FMZ bot can read incoming commands and map them to trading actions.
• The example highlights service reliability issues such as process failures and missed signals.
• The guide explains infrastructure plumbing but gives no evidence about strategy profitability.
