How the TradingView to cTrader Trade Copier Works

 

The copier uses one execution infrastructure for manual trading, strategy automation, and indicator automation. You configure TradingView alerts for your workflow, and the cloud system processes them for execution by the cTrader Receiver cBot.

1

Choose Your Trading Workflow & Configure Alerts

Select how you want to send trades from TradingView to cTrader, then configure the required TradingView alerts for that workflow.

Supports manual and automated TradingView execution workflows with both Low-Code and No-Code configuration methods.
2

Signal Processing by the Cloud Server

The cloud server receives the webhook signal from TradingView, validates the request, assigns a unique identifier, and records the alert in the dashboard.

This allows incoming alerts and trade executions to be monitored through a centralized control panel with alert and execution history.

3

cTrader Receiver cBot Connection

The Receiver runs as a cBot instance in cTrader and maintains an active connection with the cloud server.

Start the Receiver cBot on the cTrader account and symbol you want to trade. Each instance uses its configured Channel ID and current symbol to receive the relevant execution requests.

4

Automated Trade Execution in cTrader

Once the signal is received, the Receiver cBot places the corresponding market order in cTrader and applies the configured position sizing, TP/SL, reversal, and execution filters.

Execution details are recorded in the dashboard together with timestamps and signal identifiers.

Choose Your Trading Workflow

 

Use the TradingView to cTrader Trade Copier for manual trading, strategy automation, or indicator-based automation. Select the workflow that matches how you want to send trades from TradingView.

Manual Trade Triggering from TradingView

Use TradingView alerts as manual trade triggers for:

Entry BuyEntry SellExit BuyExit Sell

When you identify a setup on the chart, activate the corresponding alert from the TradingView interface. The webhook signal is sent to the cloud server, and the trade is executed by the cTrader Receiver cBot.

This workflow is designed for discretionary traders who prefer making trading decisions manually while using TradingView alerts to execute trades through cTrader.

It can also be useful for traders who have not fully automated their workflow yet or simply prefer maintaining manual control over trade entries and exits.

Key Highlights

 

Manual & Automated Trading Workflows

Copy TradingView alerts to cTrader for manual trading, strategy automation, or indicator automation through a unified cloud-based execution workflow.

No-Code Configuration

Connect supported TradingView alerts to cTrader using a ready-to-use webhook message provided in the client area, without editing Pine Script or manually formatting alert messages.

No Symbol Mapping Required

Trades are executed on the cTrader symbol where the Receiver cBot is running, avoiding symbol-mapping issues between TradingView and cTrader.

Core Features of the TradingView to cTrader Copier

 

Market Orders with Optional TP & SL

TradingView entry alerts are executed as market orders in cTrader. Take Profit and Stop Loss can be taken from the incoming signal or replaced with Receiver-side values configured in ticks, with TP and SL enabled or disabled independently.

Advanced Trade Execution Management

Control how the Receiver handles different signal scenarios. On a reversal signal, choose between closing all opposite positions or opening a hedge in the opposite direction. Pyramiding can be enabled or restricted independently. Additional controls include TP/SL overrides, lot multipliers, and exit-alert processing.

Built-In Risk & Execution Controls

Apply configurable filters directly in the Receiver cBot — permitted trading days, trading-session time window (including cross-midnight sessions), daily profit and loss limits, maximum spread in pips, maximum number of open trades, and maximum open volume. Optionally configure the Receiver to close managed positions if the connection to the cloud server is lost and not restored within the configured timeout. Designed for prop firm accounts or any account with defined risk constraints.

Flexible Position Sizing & Risk Models

Use the incoming signal volume with an optional multiplier, or calculate position size inside the Receiver using fixed units, risk-based sizing as a percentage of account balance, or balance-based proportional sizing. Risk-based sizing requires a non-zero Stop Loss value.

Multiple Receivers — No Limit on Connected Accounts

Connect any number of cTrader Receiver cBot instances to the same TradingView signal source simultaneously. There is no cap on the number of connected accounts, making the system suitable for copying TradingView alerts across multiple cTrader accounts or distributing user-configured signals to connected subscriber terminals. Each connected instance requires its own active license.

Centralized Admin Panel

Monitor incoming alerts, trade executions, connected cBot instances, and completed trades through the Nordman Connector admin panel. Each record includes signal identifier, direction, symbol, volume, entry price, TP/SL values, execution time, and status — giving you a complete alert and execution history for traceability and performance review.

Independent cBot Instances & Channel Routing

Run multiple Receiver cBot instances within the same cTrader terminal, each with its own Channel ID, symbol, input settings, and unique position label. This allows separate TradingView workflows — different strategies or instruments — to operate independently without interfering with each other.

Demo & Live Account Support

One license covers simultaneous use on one Demo and one Live cTrader account, verified by cTrader account number. Test your setup and validate behavior on demo while the live account runs in parallel — no additional license required for the pair.

Telegram Notifications

Receive a Telegram notification through Nordman Connector when the cTrader Receiver cBot loses connection to the cloud server, helping you identify connectivity issues without continuously monitoring the terminal.

Important Notes

 

Receiver cBot Must Be Active

The Receiver cBot instance must remain running and connected to the internet to receive and execute incoming TradingView signals. If the cBot is stopped or the terminal is offline when an alert fires, the signal will not be executed.

 

No Retroactive Signal Processing

If your cTrader terminal is closed or the Receiver cBot is stopped when an alert arrives, the signal will not be queued or executed after reconnection. The system processes live signals in real time only.

 

Execution Latency

Signal processing and order placement typically complete within approximately one second. Actual speed depends on your internet connection, broker server response time, VPS stability, and TradingView webhook delivery latency.

FAQ

 
Can I manually trigger trades from TradingView?
Yes. The copier supports manual trade triggering from TradingView using alerts configured for Entry Buy, Entry Sell, Exit Buy, and Exit Sell actions. When you activate the corresponding alert, the signal is sent through the webhook connection and processed by the cTrader Receiver cBot.
What is the difference between With Script Access (Low-Code) and No-Code Configuration?
With Script Access (Low-Code) workflows are designed for users who can edit Pine Script strategies or indicators and configure alert logic inside the source code. No-Code Configuration workflows are designed for users who prefer not to modify Pine Script or do not have access to the source code.
Can I use protected or closed-source TradingView indicators?
Yes. Protected and closed-source TradingView indicators can be used when they expose alert conditions that can be selected through the TradingView alert interface.
Do I need Pine Script or cAlgo programming skills?
No. The Receiver cBot is preconfigured and ready to use — no cAlgo coding required. For TradingView, No-Code Configuration lets you set up alerts without editing Pine Script using the ready-to-use webhook message from the client area.
Can I use automated TradingView strategies with the copier?
Yes. The copier supports automated TradingView strategy alerts. In No-Code strategy workflows, the Receiver can process first entries, scale-ins, reversals, full closes, and proportional partial exits based on strategy position-state changes.
Can I use indicator alerts instead of strategies?
Yes. TradingView indicator alerts can be connected to the cTrader Receiver cBot using either With Script Access (Low-Code) or No-Code Configuration workflows.
Do I need separate alerts for buy, sell, entry, and exit actions?
It depends on the workflow. With Script Access (Low-Code) workflows can use explicit Entry Buy, Entry Sell, Exit Buy, and Exit Sell alert logic. No-Code strategy workflows can use the strategy order and position-state information contained in TradingView alerts.
How does the copier handle reversals?
The Receiver can be configured to close existing opposite-direction positions before opening the new trade, or to open a hedge instead. Pyramiding can also be enabled or restricted separately.
Can the Receiver process partial exits and scale-ins?
Yes, for No-Code TradingView strategy workflows. The Receiver can process scale-in events and calculate proportional partial exits from the previous and current TradingView strategy position size.
What is the average execution speed?
The Receiver checks the cloud connection on a 500 ms timer. Actual end-to-end execution time can vary depending on internet connectivity, cloud response time, broker execution conditions, and the TradingView webhook delivery time.
Does the Receiver cBot need to remain running?
Yes. A Receiver cBot instance must remain active and connected to the internet to receive and execute incoming TradingView signals. If the cBot stops while the terminal is offline, missed signals will not be replayed after reconnection.
Do I need a VPS?
A VPS is not required but is strongly recommended for automated workflows. It keeps the cTrader terminal and Receiver cBot running 24/7, preventing missed signals due to local machine shutdowns or internet outages.
Can I customize Take Profit and Stop Loss levels?
Yes. TP and SL can be taken from the TradingView signal or replaced with values configured inside the cTrader Receiver cBot. TP and SL can also be enabled or disabled independently.
What position-sizing methods are available?
You can use the incoming TradingView signal size with a multiplier or override it in the Receiver. Receiver-side sizing supports fixed units, risk-based sizing as a percentage of account balance, and balance-based sizing. Risk-based sizing requires a non-zero Stop Loss.
What risk controls are available?
Optional controls include permitted trading days, trading-session time, daily profit limit, daily loss limit, maximum spread in pips, maximum number of open trades, maximum open volume, pyramiding restriction, and connection-based position closing.
Can multiple Receiver cBot instances run independently?
Yes. Each Receiver instance can use its own Channel ID, cTrader symbol, settings, and unique position label, allowing separate TradingView workflows to be isolated from one another.
How does licensing work for cTrader?
One license covers one Demo cTrader account and one Live cTrader account at the same time, verified by cTrader account number. Each additional cTrader account outside that included Demo + Live pair requires its own active license.
Does the copier work with cTrader brokers?
Yes. The Receiver cBot is designed for brokers that support the cTrader platform and cBot execution. Install the Receiver in your cTrader environment and start an instance for the account and symbol you want to trade.
Do you offer a free trial?
Yes. A 5-day free trial is available so you can test the copier before continuing with a paid subscription.
