Automation Builder
The Automation Builder helps you create the command messages needed for TradingView strategy alerts.
Instead of trying to automatically detect fields from TradingView, the Automation Builder now uses a simpler workflow:
Choose your platform
Enter your sizing
Enable the TP levels your strategy uses
Generate commands
Download the command text file
Copy each command into the matching TradingView strategy field
Create one TradingView alertThis makes the setup much easier and avoids issues caused by TradingView layout changes.
What the Automation Builder Does
The Automation Builder creates command text for fields such as:
Open Long Command
Open Short Command
Long TP1 Command
Short TP1 Command
Long 100% Close Command
Short 100% Close CommandThese commands can then be copied into your TradingView strategy settings.
After that, your TradingView alert should use:
This allows your strategy to send the correct command message when an entry, take profit, stop loss, or close event triggers.
Step 1: Choose Your Automation Platform
First, choose the platform you want to generate commands for.
Available options may include:
Choose the platform you plan to send TradingView alerts to.
If you choose 3Commas Signal Bot, you will also need to enter:

Each TP level has:

AlgoPro will generate command text for:
The generated commands will appear in the Generated Command Fields section.
You can review or edit the command text before downloading it.
Step 6: Download the Command Text File

The file will look something like this:
Step 7: Copy Commands Into TradingView
Open your strategy settings in TradingView.
Go to the command section of your strategy settings.
Copy each command from the downloaded text file into the matching field.
Example:
Only copy commands into fields your strategy actually has.
If your strategy does not use TP5, do not enable TP5 in Automation Builder.
Step 8: Create the TradingView Alert
After the command fields are filled in your strategy settings, create a TradingView alert.
In the alert message/body, use:
This is important.
Do not paste the generated command directly into the TradingView alert message box. The commands belong inside the strategy settings. The alert message should use the placeholder above.
Copy TradingView Alert Message
The Automation Builder includes a button:
This copies:
Paste that into your TradingView alert message body.
Run Automation Readiness Check
Click:
This checks your setup and gives you a readiness score.
It reviews things like:
A good readiness score does not guarantee live execution will work perfectly, but it helps catch common setup mistakes.
Important Notes
The Automation Builder does not place trades by itself.
It does not connect directly to your broker.
It only helps create command text for your TradingView strategy alert workflow.
Always test in paper trading, demo mode, or a safe environment before using live automation.
