Automatically adds custom alerts to TradingView in bulk

Trading platforms (such as 3Commas and Alertatron) allow automated trades based on custom TradingView alerts which can be pinged using webhook URLs to execute trades.

When using a TradingView indicator (such as Material Indicators), you can send signals to your trading bot using TradingView alerts

So what if you want to use an indicator to trade across dozens or hundreds of pairs? Because there is no TradingView API to add alerts in bulk, you'd need to maintain those alerts by hand.

Using open source software designed for automated website testing, we can enter as many custom alerts as your TradingView account allows. It installs its very own Chrome browser (called Chromium) which is controlled by this script.

Watch as this tool enters your TradingView alerts automatically.

MacOS/Windows/Linux

Install git

Install NodeJS

Open Terminal/PowerShell and run the following:

git clone https://github.com/alleyway/add-tradingview-alerts-tool.git
cd add-tradingview-alerts-tool
npm install
cp config.example.yml config.yml

Edit your config.yml file (if you're passing signals for automated trading such as 3commas, configure those details here)

files:
  input: binance_usdt_pairs.csv
  exclude: blacklist.csv
tradingview:
  # The chart which has the indicator you'd like to use
  chartUrl: https://www.tradingview.com/chart/WS5uK1l5/
  # (optional) set the chart interval before adding pairs, otherwise interval of last saved chart is used
  # examples: 1s | 30s | 1m | 15m | 1h | 1D | 1M
  interval: 4h
alert:
  condition:
    primaryLeft: MTF Deviation
    primaryRight:
    secondary: Tier1 long
    tertiaryLeft:
    tertiaryRight:
  option: Once Per Bar Close
  # alert name is optional - can override in csv if desired and use {{symbol|base|quote}}
  # name: MI dev3 for {{base}} {{quote}}
  # indentation matters! {{quote}} and {{base}} are swapped out for quote asset(eg. USDT) and the base (eg. BTC)
  message: >
    {
        "message_type": "bot",
        "bot_id": 999999,
        "email_token": "fffffff-fffff-fffff-ffff-ffffffffff",
        "delay_seconds": 0,
        "pair": "{{quote}}_{{base}}"
    }

Allows fetching all active Binance trading pairs (want other exchanges? File an issue!)

Generates CSV files to be used as input (see config above)

npm run fetch:binance:usdt

creates binance_usdt_pairs.csv

npm run fetch:binance:btc

creates binance_btc_pairs.csv

Create an alert with the default options you'd like to use.

For example, (un)check your notification preferences, then set your Webhook URL to be:

https://3commas.io/trade_signal/trading_view

You must actually create an alert once with those options, before they become defaults. (You can immediately delete the alert)

NOTE: You'll need to log into TradingView the first time you run the script, then you'll need to close the browser and re-run the command

npm run add-alerts

You can stop the script in Terminal/PowerShell by pressing Ctrl-C

If the tool gets interrupted for some reason, you can remove the rows of already-added alert symbols (from the .csv) and re-run

A configured TradingView Indicator that works for assets quoted in BTC may not be appropriate for USD pairs, therefore, you'll want to segment your setup as follows:

NOTE: by default running "npm run add-alerts" will default to config.yml unless you specify one (eg. "npm run add-alerts config.btc.yml")

3commas will allow you to use an array of commands in the message, I typically send a message to two bots: one for paper trading, and another "real" account which I can choose to disable.

So you can use a JSON array for the message:

  message: >
    [{
        "message_type": "bot",
        "bot_id": 999999,
        "email_token": "fffffff-fffff-fffff-ffff-ffffffffff",
        "delay_seconds": 0,
        "pair": "{{quote}}_{{base}}"
    },
    {
        "message_type": "bot",
        "bot_id": 999999,
        "email_token": "fffffff-fffff-fffff-ffff-ffffffffff",
        "delay_seconds": 0,
        "pair": "{{quote}}_{{base}}"
    }]

This works in the same way as for 3Commas, but Alertatron using a different format for its messages. For example...

  message: >
    binanceKeys({{quote}}_{{base}}) {
        market(side=buy, amount=50%);
        stopOrder(side=sell, amount=100%p, offset=2%);
        limit(side=sell, amount=100%p, offset=3%);
    }
