01The algorithm stays in TradingView
An algorithmic strategy can be implemented as a Pine Strategy, an indicator using alertcondition(), or another rules-based alert. NRUNO does not modify those rules. The bridge only processes supported execution instructions.
02Backtest and live signal are different layers
Historical strategy orders do not prove when a realtime webhook will be created. Bar confirmation, intrabar calculation, repainting, higher-timeframe data and alert settings can change timing. Test the live signal separately.
03Execute a TradingView strategy automatically
Once entry, exit and timing are unambiguous, TradingView sends a message. Action, symbol, volume or risk and optional protection values must match the cTrader setup. NRUNO validates access and supported fields before routing the instruction.
04Deterministic execution safeguards
Algorithmic trading benefits from fixed limits: maximum signal age, spread, session, volume, pyramiding, hedging and optional local SL/TP. These do not prevent losses, but they reduce unwanted technical deviation from your settings.
05Exit and trade management
Your algorithm can send its own close signals. Optionally, the cBot can manage positions using your local break-even, Fixed Distance, 3-Step Pip Trailing, FVG Structure or Hybrid Pip + FVG parameters. NRUNO does not choose the method or optimise settings.
06Measure the complete algo pipeline
Record strategy-event time, alert trigger, webhook receipt, connector dispatch and cTrader result separately. This is the only way to distinguish strategy delay, transport latency and broker response.
FAQ
FAQ
Does NRUNO provide a trading algorithm?+
No. The trading logic remains your own TradingView or Pine logic. NRUNO is only the technical routing layer to the execution component.
Can a TradingView indicator act as an algorithm?+
An indicator can be part of automation if it produces unambiguous and reliable realtime alerts. A visual signal alone is not enough.
Is a good backtest sufficient?+
No. Realtime alerts, webhook messages, symbol mapping, position logic and failure behaviour must also be tested in Paper mode.
Can a Pine Strategy place live cTrader orders directly?+
The strategy first creates simulated orders or alert events. cTrader execution then needs an external connection and execution component such as NRUNO plus cBot.
Is algo trading automatically profitable?+
No. Automation applies rules repeatedly but cannot make a strategy profitable. Market, model, technical and execution risks remain.
