Automation of Pre-built indicators on Tradingview

Step-by-Step Guide: How to Automate Pre-Built Indicators on TradingView Using MIRRORPIP

Automating pre-built indicators on MIRRORPIP allows traders to convert TradingView signals into real trades automatically.

You do not need advanced coding skills to get started.

Using TradingView alerts and MIRRORPIP webhook automation, you can automate popular indicators like:

  • Supertrend
  • EMA Crossover
  • RSI
  • MACD
  • Bollinger Bands
  • VWAP
  • Moving Averages
  • Breakout Indicators

This guide explains the complete setup process step by step.


What You Need Before Starting

Before automation setup, ensure you have:

Requirements

  • A TradingView account
  • A MIRRORPIP account
  • Exchange API connected to MIRRORPIP (We support 8+ crypto exchanges)
  • Trading permissions enabled on exchange APIs (we have detailed documentation per exchange)
  • A chart with your preferred indicator

Step 1 — Open TradingView

Go to:

TradingView Official Website

Open the chart of the coin or trading pair you want to automate.

Example:

  • BTCUSDT
  • ETHUSDT
  • SOLUSDT

Step 2 — Add a Pre-Built Indicator

Click:

Indicators → Search Indicator

Now choose any prebuilt indicator.

Popular examples:

Indicator Usage
Supertrend Trend following
RSI Overbought/Oversold
MACD Momentum
EMA Cross Trend confirmation
Bollinger Bands Volatility trading

Step 3 — Configure Indicator Settings

Adjust the settings according to your strategy.

Example for Supertrend:

Setting Example
ATR Period 10
Multiplier 3

Example for EMA Cross:

Setting Example
Fast EMA 20
Slow EMA 50

You can backtest different configurations before automation. (Backtesting is free on Tradingview but needs coding)


Step 4 — Create an Alert

Once the indicator is added:

Click the Alert button on TradingView.

Now configure:

Alert Condition

Choose your indicator signal.

Examples:

  • Supertrend Buy Signal
  • EMA Cross Up
  • RSI Crossing 30
  • MACD Bullish Cross

Alert Frequency

Usually:

  • Once Per Bar Close

This helps reduce false signals.


Step 5 — Enable Webhook URL

Inside alert settings:

Enable:

Webhook URL

Now paste your MIRRORPIP webhook URL.

MIRRORPIP provides this webhook URL inside the automation section/dashboard. The URL is static and never changes

Copy this URL for all alerts

https://trade.mirrorpip.com/tradingview

Step 6 — Add Alert Message Format

TradingView sends this message to MIRRORPIP.

Example BUY alert:

[
{
"exchange": "coinswitch",
"price": "{{close}}",
"chart_symbol": "{{ticker}}",
"order_type": "buy",
"instrument_type": "NA",
"quantity": "100",
"tp": "20",
"sl": "10",
"code": "68ZXXQADFEQZA7N0"
}
]

Example SELL alert:

[
{
"exchange": "coinswitch",
"price": "{{close}}",
"chart_symbol": "{{ticker}}",
"order_type": "sell",
"instrument_type": "NA",
"quantity": "100",
"tp": "20",
"sl": "10",
"code": "68ZXXQADFEQZA7N0"
}
]

This tells MIRRORPIP exactly what order to execute.


Step 7 — Save the Alert

Click:

✅ Create Alert

TradingView now continuously monitors the market automatically.


Step 8 — Connect Exchange on MIRRORPIP

Inside MIRRORPIP:

  1. Go to Trading account
  2. Connect your exchange API key and secret

Supported exchanges may include FIU-compliant crypto exchanges available in India.


Step 9 — Activate Automation

Inside MIRRORPIP: You need to add the symbol in watchlist to ensure the automation occurs seamlessly.

Example : If on Tradingview you have deployed supertrend on BTCUSD, on Mirrorpip go to watchlist section and add BTCUSD as symbol and configure its order type (Market/Limit), you can also hard code TP/SL and QTY in Mirrorpip if you don't want to use those parameters in Tradingview.



Step 10 — Test Using Small Quantity

Before going all in:

✅ Test alerts first with small quantity.

Recommended testing process:

  1. Use small quantity
  2. Trigger manual alert
  3. Verify order execution
  4. Check exchange positions
  5. Monitor webhook logs

This helps avoid configuration mistakes.


Example Automation Workflow

Here’s a simple real-world example:

Strategy

Supertrend Buy/Sell Automation


Workflow

  1. Supertrend turns bullish
  2. TradingView alert triggers
  3. Webhook sent to MIRRORPIP
  4. MIRRORPIP places BUY order automatically
  5. Supertrend reverses
  6. SELL alert triggers
  7. MIRRORPIP exits the position

Entire process becomes fully automated.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

1. Wrong Webhook URL
