The biggest mistake traders make is staring at charts all day. Professional traders set alerts and only interact with the market when their conditions are met.
011. Price and Trendline Alerts
Right-click any price level or trendline to set an alert. You can choose "Crossing," "Entering," or "Exiting" to filter for specific price action.
022. Indicator Alerts
You can set alerts on almost any indicator. For example, "Alert me when RSI crosses below 30" or "Alert when the 50 EMA crosses the 200 EMA."
033. Webhooks and Automation
For advanced users, webhooks allow you to send your TradingView alerts to external apps like Discord, Telegram, or even an automated execution bot.
Pro Tips for Success.
- »Name your alerts clearly so you know exactly what happened when your phone pings.
