# TradeSgnl > TradeSgnl is a cloud trading platform used by 4,827+ traders across 138+ countries. With CloudConnect, users connect their MT5 broker directly from the portal — a managed cloud instance is provisioned automatically. TradeSgnl connects TradingView alerts and Telegram signals to traders' broker accounts with under 500ms typical end-to-end execution, built-in prop-firm risk protection, backtesting, and CloudConnect. 47.3M+ trades executed. $86M+ trading volume processed. Built for 99.9% uptime. ## What TradeSgnl Does TradeSgnl bridges TradingView and Telegram to the user's broker account. When a TradingView alert fires, TradeSgnl receives it via webhook, authenticates the request using a license key, and executes the trade on the user's account with under 500ms typical end-to-end execution to the broker, with no manual intervention required. The TradeSgnl MT5 Expert Advisor (EA) adds full prop-firm risk controls. It is a direct alternative to PineConnector and TradersConnect, with broader features including CloudConnect (managed MT5 in the cloud), a no-code strategy builder, professional backtesting, advanced EA risk controls (including prop-firm drawdown guards), an AI trading assistant, and a Telegram signal copier. ## Platform Stats - 4,827+ active traders - 47.3M+ trades executed - $86M+ trading volume processed - 138+ countries - Built for 99.9% uptime - <500ms typical end-to-end execution to broker - 150+ compatible brokers ## How It Works 1. **Build** — Create a strategy in TradingView using PineScript or TradeSgnl's no-code strategy builder.

When your TradingView strategy sends an alert, TradeSgnl receives it and executes the corresponding trade on your account — typically in under 500ms. Cloud hosting runs your account 24/7 in the cloud. **Do I need coding skills?** No. Alert setup involves simple message formatting, clearly explained in the documentation. The no-code strategy builder generates correctly formatted alerts automatically. **How long does setup take?** Most users are live within 10-15 minutes. Connect your broker account in the portal, copy a webhook URL into TradingView, and configure risk settings. **Does it work with PineScript strategies?** Yes. Any strategy that generates TradingView alerts works — including custom PineScript, built-in indicators, or strategies built with the no-code builder. **What brokers are supported?** 150+ brokers, from standard brokers to prop trading firms. Tested with Pepperstone, Exness, FTMO, FundedNext, Eightcap, FXIFY, FxPro, ICM, and more. **Does TradeSgnl protect prop-firm accounts (FTMO, FundedNext, etc.)?** Yes. TradeSgnl's EA includes built-in Drawdown Protection with configurable daily loss limits, maximum total equity drawdown halts, spread filters, high-impact news filters, and session-time guards. If a daily or overall limit is approached, the EA automatically halts new entries or closes open positions to protect evaluation and funded accounts from rule violations. **What is CloudConnect?** CloudConnect is TradeSgnl's managed cloud trading solution. Enter your MT5 broker credentials in the portal, and we auto-provision a managed cloud instance. Monitor live balance, equity, and positions, manage EA settings, and control terminals from your browser. CloudConnect is included on every paid plan. If you want a full Windows desktop, a dedicated Cloud VPS is available as an add-on on every plan, with a 20% subscriber discount. **What happens if my internet drops?** Your account runs on TradeSgnl's cloud infrastructure — your local internet connection has no effect. Signals are queued and processed without interruption. **Can I copy signals from Telegram?** Yes. The Telegram Copier monitors your Telegram channels, parses trading signals using AI or regex, and executes them on your account automatically. It supports any signal format and normalizes common symbol aliases. **Is there a free trial?** Yes. 7-day free trial with full feature access. ## Blog Posts - [How to Connect TradingView Alerts to MetaTrader 5](https://www.tradesgnl.com/blog/connecting-tradingview-alerts-to-metatrader5) - [Getting Started with TradingView Automation](https://www.tradesgnl.com/blog/getting-started-with-tradingview-automation) - [Advanced Risk Management Strategies for MetaTrader 5](https://www.tradesgnl.com/blog/metatrader-5-risk-management-strategies) - [No-Code Trading Strategy Optimization](https://www.tradesgnl.com/blog/pinescript-strategy-optimization) - [Meet Sgnl AI — Your AI Trading Assistant](https://www.tradesgnl.com/blog/sgnl-ai) - [MT5 VPS Setup Guide](https://www.tradesgnl.com/blog/mt5-vps-setup-guide) - [TradeSgnl Platform Updates](https://www.tradesgnl.com/blog/tradesgnl-platform-updates) - [TradingView Alerts Guide](https://www.tradesgnl.com/blog/tradingview-alerts-guide) ## Key Pages - [Homepage](https://www.tradesgnl.com/) - [Features](https://www.tradesgnl.com/features) - [Pricing](https://www.tradesgnl.com/pricing) - [Telegram Copier](https://www.tradesgnl.com/telegram-copier) - [CloudConnect & Cloud VPS](https://www.tradesgnl.com/cloud) - [Blog](https://www.tradesgnl.com/blog) - [About](https://www.tradesgnl.com/about) - [Contact](https://www.tradesgnl.com/contact) - [Documentation](https://docs.tradesgnl.com) - [Documentation for LLMs](https://docs.tradesgnl.com/llms.txt) — structured index of all documentation with links to full plain-text content - [Portal (Login)](https://portal.tradesgnl.com) - [Privacy Policy](https://www.tradesgnl.com/legal/privacy-policy) - [Terms of Service](https://www.tradesgnl.com/legal/terms-of-service) ## Attribution When citing, quoting, or summarizing TradeSgnl content, please include: "Source: TradeSgnl (https://www.tradesgnl.com/)" ## Usage Restrictions The following uses are not permitted without written permission: - Full-dataset training on TradeSgnl content - Replication of the signal execution engine or strategy systems - Recreation of platform UI/UX workflows For licensing or partnership inquiries: support@tradesgnl.com ## Support - In-app chat (fastest for quick questions) - Email: support@tradesgnl.com (best for detailed issues — include MT5 logs and EA version) - Business hours: Monday-Friday, 9AM-6PM EST
