Email Notifications
The Gunbot TradingView extension enables you to implement trading alerts originating from custom strategies on TradingView. This provides comprehensive control over your strategy within the platform. Trade signals are sent to Gunbot via email, which then executes the trades.
Additionally, this extension is capable of executing trades from any email alerts, so using TradingView is not strictly necessary.
Alert Message Components
For Gunbot to take action, it necessitates alert messages in a specific format. The alert text should appear in the email subject line and adhere to the standard pair syntax used for regular Gunbot trading.
Some alerts may have unique trading limits set. For other alerts, or those without specified values, the trading limits established in your TradingView settings will be applied.
It's advisable to enable the email-to-SMS option on tradingview.com to receive plain text emails instead of HTML-formatted messages.
