Platform Guide
Below you’ll learn how to place, manage, and close trades directly inside your TradingView chart.
Press Buy or Sell — your order is instantly sent to MetaTrader.
1. Open the Trade panel
| Action | What happens |
|---|---|
Click Trade on the top toolbar | Right sidebar opens with empty fields. |
| Draw a Risk/Reward tool → right‑click → Trade | Sidebar opens pre‑filled with prices from the tool (only Volume blank). |
2. Fill in your order
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Volume | Position size in lots |
| Side | Buy or Sell |
| Type | Market or Limit |
| Entry Price | Price at which the position will open (current market price for Market order) |
| Stop Loss | Price level at which the trade will automatically close to limit losses |
