PineTrader Library Tutorial

Watch our video tutorial for a visual guide.

Overview

The PineTrader library automates order ticket generation for TradingView strategies, eliminating the need for manual JSON payload creation.

Implementation Steps

Import Library

import pinetraderinc/PineTraderLibrary/1 as [VARIABLE]

Create Order Tickets

var LongOT = [VARIABLE].GenerateOT(**Params)
var ShortOT = [VARIABLE].GenerateOT(**Params)
var CloseOT = [VARIABLE].GenerateOT(**Params)

Configure Trade Execution

Choose your preferred method:

Method 1: Strategy Integration

// Entry Trades
strategy.entry(**Params, alert_message=LongOT)
strategy.entry(**Params, alert_message=ShortOT)
// Exit Trade
strategy.exit(**Params, alert_message=CloseOT)

Method 2: Custom Alert Control

Use alert() function for more granular control over trade execution.

Webhook Configuration

⚠️

Configure your TradingView webhook settings correctly for proper execution.

  1. Enable webhook in alert settings
  2. Set message field to:
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
  1. If you add a alert() in your pinescript strategy, you will see a dropdown menu prompting you when to send the alerts:
    • A) Order fills and alert() function calls
    • B) Order fills only
    • C) alert() function calls only

Common Implementation Patterns

Strategy Integration

//@version=5
strategy("My Strategy", overlay=true)
 
// Import library
import pinetraderinc/PineTraderLibrary/1 as pt
 
// Generate order tickets
if (longCondition)
    var ticket = pt.GenerateOT(
        license_id="your_license",
        symbol=syminfo.ticker,
        action="MRKT",
        order_type="BUY",
        trade_type="SINGLE"
    )
    strategy.entry("Long", strategy.long, alert_message=ticket)

Alert-Based Execution

//@version=5
indicator("My Indicator", overlay=true)
 
// Import library
import pinetraderinc/PineTraderLibrary/1 as pt
 
// Generate and send order ticket
if (alertCondition)
    var ticket = pt.GenerateOT(**Params)
    alert(ticket, alert.freq_once_per_bar)
