Step 1) Setup MT5
To set up MT5 we have made a quick installation video.
PLEASE NOTE: Only add the Expert Advisor to 1 chart. The EA can trade all pairs from 1 chart.
PLEASE NOTE: To be able to trade all pairs, you need to right-click in the "Market Watch" section and click "Show All".
Step 2) Connect with TradingView
1. Login to your Cordly account and go to "Account & Integration". Then click on "Get Credentials / Get TradingView Webhook" to get the webhook needed for TradingView.
2. When you click "Get Credentials / Get TradingView Webhook" you need to type your Cordly password to see the URL.
Copy the URL from the "Webhook URL" field. This URL is needed in TradingView
3. When creating an alert inside TradingView you will need to paste that URL into the "Webhook URL". You only need to do this one time and then TradingView remembers the URL until you change it. (To create an alert in TradingView, just right-click and click "Add alert". BUT note that you can set up a potential trigger for a trade when doing so.)
4. You have now successfully connected TradingView with your Cordly account. All future alerts will be sent to your Cordly account. To execute trades you will need to write the correct message in the message field so Cordly knows what to do when the alert triggers.
We have a full guide for TradingView syntax here
Step 3) Configure your trading settings
Before you start trading you will need to configure your trading settings. You find these on the left of your Cordly Dashboard under "Trading Settings". Select your account and the settings available will show.
To set up your settings correctly you need to do the following:
1) Main settings (also called trading settings) -> Select the trading settings you want Cordly to send with the trade when executing the signal.
The minimum requirement of settings is trade size, Max number of trades and the number of Take profit levels you want to copy. See arrows below
2) Specific settings - Click "add new pair" and select the trading pairs you want to enable to trade. When you have added them to the top list, then click Save
3) After saving your pair list, you see a column named "Alias". This column is used when your signal provider uses a different name for the trading pair than the exchange uses. Example: Your broker has the trading pair XAUUSD but your signal provider writes Gold in their signals. Next to XAUUSD you need to write Gold
