Send your first TradingView webhook command

This page has one job: get one minimal command through the full path correctly. Do not start with JSON wrappers, long sequences, or advanced sizing rules.

Copy this first Use one saved connection, one simple symbol, one market command, and one small size.

Webhook URL to use in TradingView

Use the webhook URL from the saved connection you just created:

https://api.linkmytrading.com/api/automaton/webhook/YOUR_TOKEN

Replace YOUR_TOKEN with the exact token shown for that connection. It is the last segment of the webhook URL.

In TradingView:

1. open the alert you want to test
2. enable webhook URL
3. paste the full webhook URL
4. paste one minimal command into the message field

First command to send for a safe live test

ALPHA(BTCUSDT){type=market,side=buy,amount=0.001}

What each part means

Part	Meaning
ALPHA	saved bot name
BTCUSDT	symbol
type=market	execute immediately
side=buy	buy side
amount=0.001	order size to send now

How to verify the result in Console

• the request was accepted
• the token hit the correct connection
• the bot name matched
• the symbol resolved correctly
• the command started
• the outcome was success, warning, or error

Three common failures

Wrong token

The URL belongs to a different saved connection than the one you intended to test.

Wrong bot name

The payload names a different bot than the saved connection behind the token.

Size too small

The command is valid, but the exchange rejects the final order because the resolved quantity is too small.
