TV → MT5 Bridge

TradingView to MT5 Integration for Pine-Driven Execution

We connect TradingView alerts to MetaTrader 5 terminals—handling symbol suffixes, lot steps, filling modes, and prop drawdown rules so your chart logic and execution stack stay aligned.

Pine and MT5 speak different languages

Copier plugins map BUY/SELL strings but ignore contract specs, hedging mode, and partial closes. Prop traders get flagged when bridge latency opens off-market fills.

  • ×TradingView symbols (EURUSD) do not match broker symbols (EURUSD.pro) on MT5.
  • ×Alert delays cause market orders far from intended breakout levels.
  • ×No feedback loop: MT5 fill failures never reach TradingView or the operator.
  • ×Multiple charts firing alerts overwhelm MT5 trade context.

Integration layers designed for MT5 realities

Cloud webhook receivers or local EA listeners with symbol maps, queue serialization, and MT5-native risk checks before OrderSend.

  • Bidirectional status: MT5 posts fill/reject back to your dashboard or Telegram.
  • Serialized order queue per terminal to avoid context conflicts.
  • Configurable slippage and max spread gates at execution time.
  • Works with funded accounts: daily loss checks in MT5, not just Pine.

Frequently asked questions

Webhook vs local EA—which is better for MT5?+

Local HTTP to an EA on the same VPS minimizes hops. Cloud webhooks suit multi-region subscribers; we recommend per use case.

Can I close positions from TradingView alerts?+

Yes with explicit close tokens and magic number targeting to avoid closing unrelated trades.

Does this work on prop firm MT5?+

Yes when EAs are allowed. We embed firm drawdown and lot caps in the MT5 layer.

Will repainting in Pine affect live trades?+

Alerts should fire on confirmed bar close. We review Pine logic for repainting risk during intake.

Can I run multiple Pine strategies to one MT5 account?+

Yes with distinct magic numbers and per-strategy risk budgets.
