How to Send TradingView Alerts to Telegram (Step-by-Step 2026 Guide)

Quick answer: the fastest way to send TradingView alerts to Telegram is a webhook relay. You create a Telegram bot with @BotFather, generate a unique webhook URL on CopyConnectFX, and paste that URL into your TradingView alert. From then on, every alert is delivered to your Telegram channel in under a second — no code, no server, no maintenance.

What you need before starting

Step 1 — Create your Telegram bot

Open Telegram and search for @BotFather. Send /newbot, choose a name and a username, and BotFather replies with a bot token that looks like 123456789:AAF.... Copy it — this token is how the relay talks to Telegram on your behalf.

Step 2 — Connect the bot to your channel

Add your new bot to your channel or group as an admin (it needs permission to post). Then grab your channel ID: add @RawDataBot to the channel, post any message, and it replies with the chat ID — channels start with -100. Remove @RawDataBot afterwards.

Step 3 — Generate your webhook URL

Register on CopyConnectFX, paste your bot token on the Bots page (it is verified against Telegram automatically), then create a webhook by picking the bot and entering your channel ID. You get a unique URL like:

https://www.copyconnectfx.com/webhook/a1b2c3d4e5f6

Use the built-in Send test message button first — if the test lands in your channel, everything downstream will work.

Step 4 — Paste it into TradingView

Create or edit an alert in TradingView. In the Notifications tab, tick Webhook URL and paste your CopyConnectFX URL. In the Message box, write whatever you want delivered — plain text works, and so do TradingView placeholders:

🚨 {{ticker}} alert!
Price: {{close}}
Timeframe: {{interval}}

For strategy alerts you can include {{strategy.order.action}} and {{strategy.order.price}} to broadcast BUY/SELL with the fill price.

Step 5 — Fire and verify

Trigger the alert (or wait for the market to do it). The message appears in your Telegram channel within a second, and the delivery — payload, status, timestamp — is recorded on your CopyConnectFX Logs page, so you never wonder whether an alert actually fired.

FAQ

Does this work on the TradingView free plan? No. TradingView only offers webhook notifications on paid plans (Essential and above). Email-to-Telegram workarounds exist but add minutes of delay — useless for trading.
Can I send alerts to multiple channels? Yes — create one webhook per destination and add both URLs to your alerts, or wait for the Multi-Channel Broadcast feature on our roadmap.
Is my bot token safe? Your token is stored server-side, is never exposed in any URL, and you can revoke it anytime from @BotFather. Webhook URLs are unguessable 16-character IDs and can be regenerated in one click.
