What's inside TradeSgnl

  1. Overview of Sgnl AI capabilities

    Sgnl AI is an integrated assistant within the TradeSgnl portal that provides answers based on user-specific data and official documentation. It can analyze trading results (balance, best/worst symbols), troubleshoot setup problems (e.g., why a signal didn't trade), and generate TradingView alert messages based on plain English descriptions.

  2. Overview of TradeSgnl MCP Server

    TradeSgnl provides an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that allows AI agents to read signals, deliveries, connected accounts, and performance metrics, query live market prices, run the Market Analyst, and optionally send trade signals to broker accounts. The server operates over Streamable HTTP.

    Server Address: https://portal.tradesgnl.com/api/mcp

    Note: The MCP server does not support chart automation (drawing on TradingView charts or managing alerts); for those tasks, use the TradingView AI extension.

  3. Overview of the TradeSgnl Syntax Generator

    The Syntax Generator is a visual form in the TradeSgnl Portal used to create signal text for TradingView or other webhook sources. It eliminates the need to memorize specific parameter names (e.g., sl= vs sl_pips=) by providing labeled fields with inline validation. Key capabilities include:

    • Generating exact signal text for webhooks.
    • Testing signals directly to an account to verify connectivity without needing TradingView.
    • Saving and loading reusable strategy presets.

  4. Overview of TradeSgnl Alert Types

    TradeSgnl monitors trading activities and provides four primary categories of alerts. Each category can be configured independently via the Alerts Dashboard:

    • Connection Lost Alerts: Triggered by EA disconnection, server communication timeouts, or network connectivity issues.
    • Signal Execution Errors: Triggered by insufficient margin, invalid symbols/closed markets, signal processing failures, or when an account sign-in is no longer accepted by the platform.
    • Account Risk Alerts: Triggered when daily drawdown limits, maximum drawdown thresholds, or account loss limits are breached.
    • News Events Alerts: Triggered by upcoming high-impact news, trading blocks due to news, or when signals are queued until a news period ends.

  5. Overview of Symbol Mapping

    Symbol Mapping acts as a translation layer between TradingView and your broker. It converts TradingView symbols (e.g., EURUSD) to broker-specific formats (e.g., EURUSD.m or i.EURUSD.micro) in real-time as signals are processed. This prevents failed trades caused by symbol name mismatches and allows a single set of TradingView alerts to work across different brokers. This feature is available on Advanced and Professional plans.

  6. Overview of TradeSgnl Cloud VPS

    A TradeSgnl Cloud VPS is a Virtual Private Server designed for algorithmic trading, ensuring trading algorithms run 24/7 with a 99.9% uptime guarantee. It comes pre-configured with MetaTrader 5 (MT5) and the TradeSgnl EA for a turnkey automated trading solution.

  7. Overview of MT5 Cloud

    MT5 Cloud allows users to connect MT5 broker accounts to the TradeSgnl dashboard by provisioning dedicated cloud terminals. Each terminal runs 24/7 in the cloud, meaning trades execute even when the user's computer is off. Key benefits include automatic provisioning (no manual MT5 setup or VNC), live account monitoring (balance, equity, profit) directly from the dashboard, and low-latency execution via optimized network routing.

  8. Overview of Hedge Protection

    Hedge Protection is an automated risk management feature that limits capital loss by opening counter-positions (hedges) when the worst-performing trade in a strategy group reaches a predefined pip loss threshold. It allows traders to cap losses while keeping original positions open in case of a market reversal. This feature is EA-only and operates globally across all strategies when enabled.

  9. Overview of Strategy Lab

    Strategy Lab is a Pine Script workspace within the TradeSgnl Portal featuring a code canvas and an AI developer. It allows users to convert indicators into strategies, modify existing scripts, or generate new strategies from natural language descriptions. The AI proposes changes as diffs that the user can accept or reject. Note that using Strategy Lab consumes AI credits, which can be purchased on the Billing page of the portal.

  10. Overview of TradeSgnl Backtesting capabilities

    The TradeSgnl EA allows users to evaluate trading strategies using historical data. Key capabilities include testing TradingView strategies with advanced trade management (trailing stops, pyramiding, recovery systems), validating any CSV-based strategy, generating professional performance metrics, and optimizing risk management settings like stop loss and take profit. Note: A TradeSgnl license with backtesting privileges is required.

  11. Overview of Pyramid Trading in TradeSgnl EA

    Pyramid Trading groups multiple trades sharing the same symbol and strategy name (comment) into a single coordinated position. Instead of individual take-profits, the EA calculates a combined volume-weighted average breakeven price and monitors a shared profit target. When this target is reached, all trades in the group are closed together.

    Key behaviors include:

    • Automatic TP Removal: When a second trade is added to a strategy group, individual take-profits are removed and replaced by strategy-level targets.
    • Weighted Breakeven: Target calculations use volume-weighted average prices for fair profit distribution.
    • Grouping: Matching is exact and case-sensitive based on the comment= value in the signal.
    • Execution: The EA does not open trades; it only manages the exits and organization of trades sent by signals or strategies.

  12. Overview of the Telegram Copier

    The Telegram Copier bridges Telegram signal channels and trading accounts. It detects signals in monitored channels, extracts trade parameters (symbol, action, entry, stop loss, and take profits), and sends formatted commands to connected accounts for instant execution. It requires an active TradeSgnl license with at least one connected account.
