If you’re looking for a simple and effective way to turn TradingView signals into automated actions on ABX, integration via webhook is the ideal solution. In this guide, we’ll explain what webhooks are, how to set them up step by step, and what licenses you need to start creating automated trading strategies right away.
What Are Webhooks?
Imagine having an assistant who automatically alerts you when something important happens—for example, waking you up if the temperature drops below zero. That’s exactly how a webhook works.
Instead of continuously polling the platform to check if something has happened, you set a condition: when it’s met, the system immediately sends a message (POST request) to another service.
In trading, this means that when an indicator on TradingView generates a signal (e.g., a moving average crossover), a request is instantly sent to ABX, which can trigger a predefined action like opening or closing a position or executing other automated logic.
Why Using Webhooks on ABX Makes a Difference
Until recently, using advanced indicators like ZigZag, Smart Money Concepts, or Order Blocks required manually building complex blocks and logic on ABX. Now, thanks to the integration with TradingView webhooks, every signal can become a precise and automatic trigger.
How to Configure Webhooks in 3 Simple Steps
1. Create the Webhook Block on ABX
In the ABX builder, go to the left-hand menu and open the Block Controllers section. Drag the Webhook Alert block into your project.
– Give the alert a name for easy management.
– Copy the unique link that’s generated—you’ll need this on TradingView.
2. Create an Alert on TradingView
Go to TradingView and create a new alert by choosing your desired condition, such as a moving average crossover, RSI crossing a threshold, custom patterns, etc.
Check the Webhook URL option and paste the link generated by ABX.
3. Link the Alert to Automation on ABX
Every time the alert is triggered, TradingView will send a POST request to ABX. The Webhook Alert block will turn true for one tick
or bar (depending on your strategy logic: OnTick or OnBar), activating the next block.
You can then execute actions like opening or closing trades or triggering portions of your strategy.
