What you need. A Strategy that runs on its own and can send
Triggon an authenticated webhook when it acts. On TradingView that means a Pine Script Strategy (a script that
places orders in the Strategy Tester, not only an indicator that paints a signal), open on a
chart of each symbol you intend to declare, on a plan that can send webhook alerts:
TradingView decides which plans include webhooks, so check your plan before you apply,
because an alert with no webhook delivery cannot reach anyone.
A Strategy that runs anywhere else, on your own server or inside a bot, sends the same
request itself and needs no TradingView plan at all: see
connect the Strategy you already have.
The rest of this section walks the TradingView path, because it is the common one.
Which chart. Open the feed of the exchange you actually trade, for
example its perpetual chart of BTCUSDT. Triggon reads the symbol from the alert and
normalises it: the exchange prefix and any perpetual suffix are stripped, so a chart symbol
such as EXCHANGE:BTCUSDT.P arrives as BTCUSDT, which is how the
symbol is spelled on Triggon's list. If you use your Strategy's per-symbol connection (recommended, see
alerts), the symbol is fixed by the connection and the alert does not
need to carry it at all.
Spot or futures. Decide which instrument your Strategy trades. Spot means
the coin itself, held outright, with no leverage; futures means perpetual contracts, with no expiry and no dated
contracts, where you declare a maximum leverage. The application asks for one of the two, and every Signal is
validated against that declaration.
Alert coverage. A Strategy that alerts on entries but never on exits
produces an incomplete record. Plan an alert for every event you want subscribers to see:
entries, stop and target updates, partial closes, target hits, stop hits and closes.
The TradingView and Pine Script page lists what each alert
can express.
