TradingView® Webhook Integration

Connecting TradingView® Alerts directly to your Hoox edge gateway is the most common way to automate your trading strategies. By combining TradingView® charting with Hoox's low-latency edge execution, you can trigger orders instantly based on mathematical indicators, chart patterns, or custom Pine Script™ v6 logic.

This tutorial walks you through writing a Pine Script™ v6 script, setting up a TradingView® webhook alert, and testing executions.

💻 Step 1: Writing a Pine Script™ v6 Signal Indicator

To trigger clean trade alerts, use TradingView®'s Pine Script™ (//@version=6). Below is a copy-paste indicator script that evaluates a Moving Average Cross strategy and generates standardized trade alert signals:

//@version=6
indicator("Hoox EMA Cross Signals", overlay=true)

// 1. Inputs & Parameters
fastLength = input.int(9, title="Fast EMA Length")
slowLength = input.int(21, title="Slow EMA Length")

// 2. Indicators Calculation
fastEMA = ta.ema(close, fastLength)
slowEMA = ta.ema(close, slowLength)

plot(fastEMA, color=color.blue, title="Fast EMA")
plot(slowEMA, color=color.orange, title="Slow EMA")

// 3. Trade Conditions
longCondition = ta.crossover(fastEMA, slowEMA)
shortCondition = ta.crossunder(fastEMA, slowEMA)

plotshape(longCondition, title="Long Cross", style=shape.triangleup, location=location.belowbar, color=color.green, size=size.small)
plotshape(shortCondition, title="Short Cross", style=shape.triangledown, location=location.abovebar, color=color.red, size=size.small)

// 4. Alert Payloads Construction (JSON compliant)
// Live:
longAlertJson = '{"apiKey": "your-hoox-webhook-passkey", "exchange": "bybit", "action": "LONG", "symbol": "BTCUSDT", "quantity": 0.001, "leverage": 10}'
shortAlertJson = '{"apiKey": "your-hoox-webhook-passkey", "exchange": "bybit", "action": "SHORT", "symbol": "BTCUSDT", "quantity": 0.001, "leverage": 10}'
// Testnet rehearsal (optional — add "test": true; prefer EXCHANGE_TESTNET_* secrets):
// longAlertJson = '{"apiKey": "your-hoox-webhook-passkey", "exchange": "bybit", "action": "LONG", "symbol": "BTCUSDT", "quantity": 0.001, "leverage": 10, "test": true}'

// 5. Trigger Alerts
if (longCondition)
    alert(longAlertJson, alert.freq_once_per_bar_close)

if (shortCondition)
    alert(shortAlertJson, alert.freq_once_per_bar_close)

🔔 Step 2: Creating the TradingView® Webhook Alert

Once your script is saved and added to your chart:

1. Click the Alarm Clock (Alerts) icon on the top right panel in TradingView®.
2. Select Condition: Choose your indicator "Hoox EMA Cross Signals" and select "Any Alert Function Call" (this directs TradingView® to parse the custom JSON payloads from the alert() functions inside your script).
3. Under Expiration: Select your alert lifespan (Premium accounts support Open-Ended alerts).
4. Navigate to the Notifications Tab:
   • Check the Webhook URL box.
   • Paste your public Hoox Gateway endpoint URL: https://hoox.alpha-trading.workers.dev/webhook
5. Navigate to the Settings Tab:
   • In the Message box, type: {{strategy.order.alert_message}} (if using a Backtesting Strategy) or leave it blank (if using an Indicator, as the JSON payload is already defined inside our alert() function).
6. Click Create.

🔍 Step 3: Verifying Execution in Production

When the Moving Average crossover occurs on your chart:

1. TradingView® compiles the JSON payload and POSTs it to your edge gateway.
2. The hoox gateway validates the signature and routes the order to the exchange in the payload (Bybit in this example; DEX venues use BASE/QUOTE — DEX spot swaps).
3. Check the transaction directly in your terminal:
   bash[ COPY ]

   hoox monitor trades
   

4. Stream live gateway telemetry logs to verify execution latency:
   bash[ COPY ]

   hoox logs worker hoox
