TradingView Webhook to cTrader
TradingView can send webhook alerts, but cTrader does not turn those webhook messages into trades by itself. To execute TradingView signals in cTrader, you need a connector layer that receives the webhook, validates the message and forwards the instruction to a cTrader-side component.
NRUNO provides that route: your TradingView alert sends a webhook to NRUNO, NRUNO processes the signal in the cloud, and the NRUNO cBot receives the instruction in cTrader.
How the connection works
- TradingView triggers an alert.
- The alert sends a webhook request to your personal NRUNO URL.
- NRUNO validates and logs the message.
- The connected NRUNO cBot receives the instruction.
- cTrader handles the execution through your configured account and broker environment.
This keeps your strategy in TradingView while giving cTrader a clear execution path.
Why you need a connector
A webhook is only a message. It is not a trading platform, a broker connection or a risk engine. cTrader needs an application, cBot or API workflow that understands the message and knows what to do with it.
NRUNO is built for that exact gap between "TradingView alert fired" and "cTrader received an executable instruction".
What to include in the alert message
Your alert message should communicate the trading instruction clearly. Depending on your setup, this may include:
- action, such as entry or exit
- symbol
- volume or risk value
- side, such as buy or sell
- optional stop loss and take profit values
- a connector key or account-specific identifier
Do not put broker login credentials, passwords or sensitive account data into TradingView alert bodies.
FAQ
Can TradingView connect directly to cTrader?
TradingView can send webhooks, but cTrader does not execute TradingView webhook messages directly without a connector, cBot or API-based workflow.
Does NRUNO create the trading signal?
No. NRUNO routes the signal. Your strategy and alert logic stay in TradingView.
Can I test before live trading?
Yes. NRUNO supports Paper and Live modes so you can verify incoming signals before allowing live orders.
Does execution happen instantly?
NRUNO is designed for fast routing, but TradingView delivery, internet connectivity, broker response, spreads and market liquidity can affect total execution time.
