Note: Use Backtest Version

The Backtest Version of Infinity Algo V3.0 includes automatic alert generation with structured messages perfect for trading automation. Unlike the standard version, alerts are triggered programmatically without manual setup.

Quick Start: Enable Alerts in settings → Create ONE alert with "Any alert() function call" → Receive automated signals with all TP/SL levels

🚀 Key Differences from Standard Version

✅ All TP/SL levels included
✅ Ready for automation
✅ Single unified alert

⚙️ How to Enable Automatic Alerts

Add Backtest Indicator

New Feature: Enable 📊 Show Exit % in Alerts? in settings to include exit percentages directly in alert messages

Multiple Take Profit Strategy

When multiple TPs are enabled, the alert includes all active levels for sophisticated exit strategies:

Partial exits at each TP level based on your configured percentages
Scale out of positions gradually to lock in profits
Risk reduction as price moves favorably
Optional percentages displayed directly in alerts for automation

📊 Understanding Exit Percentages

The Show Exit % in Alerts? setting adds position exit percentages to each level, making it easier for bots to parse exit sizes:

Without Percentages (Default):

Clean price levels only
Bot needs separate configuration for exit sizes
Simpler format for manual traders

With Percentages Enabled:

Each level shows Price (XX%)
Bot can parse exit sizes directly from alert
No additional configuration needed

Example Use Case: Your bot receives TP1=45700.00 (30%) and knows to exit 30% of the position at 45700.00 without needing a separate configuration file.

💡 Advanced Configuration

Customization Options

🏷️ Custom Symbol Override

Use the Alert Ticker setting to:

Handle exchange-specific formatting

Example: Set XBTUSD instead of BTCUSDT for BitMEX compatibility

⚡ Leverage Customization

The Alert Leverage setting allows:

Different leverage from display settings
Exchange-specific limits (e.g., max 20x)
Risk management overrides
Position sizing calculations

🎯 Integration Methods

Choose your integration path based on your technical skills and needs:

Fastest Setup - Zero Programming Required

Option 1: TradingView → Telegram/Discord via Webhook Bridge

Create Webhook Bridge

Go to tradingview.to
Create free account
Generate webhook URL
Select destination (Telegram/Discord)

Configure TradingView Alert

Create alert with Any alert() function call
Paste webhook URL from tradingview.to
Done! Messages auto-forward to your channel

Option 2: Direct Discord Webhook

Discord Setup

1. Open Discord Server Settings
2. Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook
3. Copy webhook URL
4. Paste in TradingView alert

Perfect for: Traders who just want signals in Telegram/Discord without any coding

Visual Automation Tools

Using Pipedream/Make (formerly Integromat)

Why use this?

Reformat messages
Add conditional logic
Send to multiple destinations
Add retry logic
No server needed

Example Flow

1. HTTP Webhook trigger (receives from TradingView)
2. Parse the message
3. Format for destination
4. Send to:
   - Telegram Bot
   - Discord Webhook
   - Google Sheets
   - Email
   - Database

Sample Pipedream Workflow

pipedream-parser.js

export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    // Parse incoming alert
    const lines = steps.trigger.event.body.split('\n');
    const data = {};
    
    lines.forEach(line => {
      const [key, value] = line.split('=');
      data[key] = value;
    });
    
    // Format for Discord
    return {
      content: `🔔 ${data.Symbol} Signal`,
      embeds: [{
        title: `${data.Side} Position`,
        fields: [
          { name: "Entry", value: data.Entry, inline: true },
          { name: "TP1", value: data.TP1, inline: true },
          { name: "SL", value: data.SL, inline: true }
        ],
        color: data.Side === "Long" ? 0x00ff00 : 0xff0000
      }]
    };
  }
});

Perfect for: Semi-technical users who want customization without managing servers

Custom Server Implementation

For maximum control, run your own webhook endpoint:

webhook-server.py

from fastapi import FastAPI, Request
import hmac
import hashlib

app = FastAPI()

@app.post("/webhook")
async def handle_alert(request: Request):
    # Verify TradingView signature (optional)
    body = await request.body()
    
    # Parse alert
    data = parse_alert(body.decode())
    
    # Custom logic
    if data['Symbol'] in WATCHLIST:
        # Execute trade
        execute_trade(data)
        
        # Log to database
        log_trade(data)
        
        # Notify multiple channels
        notify_telegram(data)
        notify_discord(data)
        
    return {"status": "processed"}

Advanced Features:

Request verification
Database logging
Multi-exchange execution
Custom risk management
Retry logic & error handling

Perfect for: Developers who need custom logic, authentication, or complex routing
