One Webhook, Several Strategies
Most copiers send every alert to every account. That's fine for one strategy, but run an NQ scalper and a gold swing strategy and both would trade on all your accounts. CopyTrade lets each strategy trade only the accounts you choose, from the same webhook URL.
Route Each Strategy to Its Own Accounts
Put accounts in groups
On the Accounts page, give each account one or more groups, for example nq-scalper for three Apex accounts and gold for two Tradeify accounts. An account can be in several groups.
Add the group to each strategy's alert
In TradingView, add "group": "nq-scalper" to that strategy's alert message. The gold strategy's alert gets "group": "gold".
Each alert trades only its group
The NQ alert trades only the nq-scalper accounts and the gold alert only the gold accounts. An alert without a group trades every switched-on account, as before.
{"action": "{{strategy.order.action}}", "symbol": "MNQ1!", "qty": 2, "group": "nq-scalper", "sl_points": 20, "tp1_points": 15, "tp2_points": 40}Each Account Still Follows Its Own Rules
SIZE, DIRECTION AND HOURS
Each account can trade the alert's size, a fixed size or a multiple of it, the opposite direction, and only inside its own trading hours (Eastern Time).
DAILY LIMITS PER ACCOUNT
Give each account its own daily profit target and loss limit. Reach one and that account's open trades are closed and it stops for the day, while your other accounts keep trading.
TP1, BREAKEVEN, TP2, STOP
Your alert's stop-loss and take-profits are placed as real orders at the broker the moment each account enters. When TP1 fills, the stop moves to breakeven on that account automatically.
ALERT INBOX
Every alert is listed with what each account did and why: filled, skipped outside its hours, blocked by a limit, or ignored as a repeat.
ONE POSITION PER INSTRUMENT
On each account, a repeat alert in the same direction is ignored and an opposite alert closes the trade first. Give strategies that trade the same instrument their own accounts so they don't close each other's trades.
NEWS PAUSE
Optionally stop new trades around CPI, the jobs report, FOMC and other high-impact US releases, and have open trades closed when the pause starts.
Common Questions
Can I run more than one TradingView strategy with one webhook?
Yes. Put accounts in groups and add the group to each strategy's alert message. Each strategy then trades only its own accounts, all through the same webhook URL.
What happens to an alert without a group?
It trades every switched-on account, exactly as it would without groups.
Can one account be in more than one group?
Yes. An account can be in up to 10 groups, so it can take alerts from several strategies.
What if no account is in the alert's group?
Nothing is traded, and the Alert Inbox says that no switched-on account is in that group.
Can two strategies trade the same instrument on the same account?
Each account holds one position per instrument: a same-direction alert is ignored and an opposite alert closes the open trade first. Give strategies that trade the same instrument their own accounts.
What does it cost?
CopyTrade is $35/month for up to 5 accounts or $45/month for unlimited accounts, after a 7-day free trial with no credit card.
