5) Copy Your Webhook URL in AlgoWay

  1. Go to Dashboard → Your Webhooks.
  2. Find the row where Platform is projectx.
  3. Click the Webhook UUID or the copy button. AlgoWay will copy the full webhook link to your clipboard.
  4. This URL will be used as the Webhook URL in TradingView.

6) Use Correct JSON for the TradingView Alert

In the TradingView alert message, send this JSON:

{
  "platform_name": "projectx",
  "ticker": "{{ticker}}",
  "order_contracts": "{{strategy.order.contracts}}",
  "order_action": "{{strategy.market_position}}",
  "price": "{{close}}"
}

This structure matches the TradingView Alert Sample window in AlgoWay for ProjectX and must be copied exactly.

7) Create TradingView Alert – Message Tab

  1. Open the chart and choose your symbol, for example SOLUSDT.P.
  2. Create an alert from your strategy or directly from the chart.
  3. On the Message tab, paste the JSON from Step 6 into the message field.
  4. Do not change placeholders such as {{ticker}} or {{strategy.order.contracts}}. TradingView fills them automatically.
