NT8 Simulated Clicks Triggered by TradingView Alerts

TradingView Simulated Click, also called TVClick, is a NinjaTrader 8 indicator included with the TradingView Alerts to NT8 Trade Copier.

The TradingView Alerts to NT8 Trade Copier package includes a strategy-based NT8 copier.

NinjaTrader does not allow ATM strategies to manage trades placed by an automated strategy. Manually managing those trades also stops the automated strategy.

TVClick provides an alternative for users who want their own ATM strategies to manage TP, SL, trailing stops, and breakeven settings.

NinjaTrader indicators cannot place orders directly. TVClick simulates clicks on the Chart Trader buttons instead, so NinjaTrader treats the resulting trades as manually placed orders.

TVClick can:

- Simulate clicks on the BUY, SELL, and CLOSE buttons in Chart Trader, allowing ATM strategies to manage the trades. Signals arrive from the bridge app through internal data exchange.

It cannot:

- Adjust order quantities or set initial TP/SL levels. Set the quantity in Chart Trader and use an ATM strategy for TP/SL management.

After importing TVClick into NT8, you can find it in the Indicators list.

1. Attach TVClick to a chart and enter your account name in the first input.

2. Open only one chart for each symbol. For example, to copy ES 06-23, use one ES 06-23 chart.

3. The indicator can automatically map CME futures symbols, so manual symbol mapping is usually unnecessary.

If automatic mapping produces an unexpected result, disable "Auto Symbol Mapping" and enter a manual mapping. The format is the same as for the NT8 copier.

Format:

TradingView symbol name

comma

NT8 symbol name

semicolon

e.g.

ES1!,MESZ2025;

4. If Chart Trader is not open, the indicator displays a reminder on the chart.

Click the blue button in the lower-left corner of the chart to temporarily pause signal copying.

5. In Chart Trader, set the order quantity and select your preferred ATM strategy:

Make sure the account selected in Chart Trader matches the account set in TVClick.

TVClick uses Microsoft UI Automation to simulate clicks. The two additional DLLs in the indicator ZIP are Microsoft Windows UI Automation libraries.

Simulated clicking is less reliable than the strategy-based copier. TVClick is provided as an alternative when ATM order management is a priority.

Configure up to three sessions to restrict entries or exits. Session times use your computer or VPS clock.
