TradingView Setup

← Dashboard

1. Request access to the indicator

The strategy is published Invite-only on TradingView, under the name Options Auto Trigger Indicator — its logic isn't public, so this isn't a copy-paste script. Submit your TradingView username from your dashboard and we'll grant your account access manually (usually within a day). You'll get an email once it's ready.

2. Once access is granted

The signal is computed from the option contract's own price action — not the underlying stock's — and reads its exact strike/expiry/call-put straight off that contract's own chart symbol. So this has to go on the contract's own chart, one alert per contract.

Open the contract's own chart on TradingView

Click the "TV" button next to that contract in your dashboard — it jumps straight to its own chart (e.g. OPRA:NOK260918C11.0), not the underlying stock. This has to be the contract's own chart, not a plain stock chart — the indicator reads the exact strike/expiry/call-put from this chart's symbol.

Add the indicator to this chart

Click Indicators (top toolbar) → search Options Auto Trigger Indicator → select it. If it doesn't show up, your access request hasn't been granted yet — check back or ask us for a status update. If the indicator draws a red warning label instead of plotting normally, you're on the wrong chart — go back to step 1 and use the "TV" button.

Create the alert

Click the alarm clock icon on the chart to open Create Alert.

The one step people miss

TradingView defaults "Condition" to Price — change it to Options Auto Trigger Indicator (the indicator itself, by name), not "Price" and not the "Options Auto Trigger — Buy" / "— Sell" entries below it. Only the indicator's own name sends the JSON payload the bot actually reads — the other options send plain text with no contract data, and the bot will never see the signal.

Turn on the webhook

Under Notifications, check Webhook URL and paste the URL from your dashboard. Set Expiration far out (or open-ended, if your plan allows it) so the alert doesn't quietly lapse mid-trade. Click Create.

Repeat per contract

This whole process is per contract, not per ticker — if you have 3 active contracts, you need 3 separate charts and 3 separate alerts, one on each contract's own chart. There's no single alert that covers multiple contracts at once.

Sanity check

Once it's live, watch your dashboard's Activity Log the next time the indicator's line flips color on that chart — you should see a ↓ received entry appear within a few seconds. If nothing shows up when the arrow prints on the chart, the Condition is almost always the culprit — go back and confirm it's set to the indicator's name, not Price.
