TradingView Signals to MT5 Auto-Trading — Understand the Flow in 5 Minutes

Webhook, EA, cloud relay — explained by who does what, not jargon alone. An infrastructure-level overview for cautious beginners.

“I want TradingView signals on MT5 with auto-trading” — if that search brought you here, you are in good company. I drowned in jargon at first: Webhook, EA, cloud relay. This post is a five-minute roles-only explainer.

Who does what

TradingView says “buy now” and POSTs a message. Relay receives it and lines up the queue. MT5 EA checks the queue on a schedule and orders when something new appears. No fancy diagram required.

TradingView cannot place broker orders directly, so you need a courier. That is Webhook relay. Beginners usually trip on sequence because roles are invisible, not because settings are magic.

Webhook in plain language

A Webhook POSTs data to a URL when an alert fires. The receiver processes it — like auto-forwarded email.

“Auto-trading feels sketchy” is understandable. What matters is who decides trades. MARONII WEBHOOK TERMINAL delivers signals; logic stays in your TradingView alerts or strategies. This is not buying someone else’s calls.

What the EA does

On MT5, an Expert Advisor fetches signals. Attach it to a chart, bind a token to your connection, and it polls — a clerk checking the shelf. While EA and MT5 run, the TradingView auto-trading loop continues even when you are asleep or at work.

A common myth

“Set Webhook and profits appear” — no. You still manage lots, symbols, and broker rules. Infrastructure carries messages; you drive.
