How fast is it really?▾
31 milliseconds from signal to fill, measured in production. That's up to 48x faster than industry-standard webhook middleware. Your trailing stops are placed on your broker's server at entry — no round-trip delay for exits.
What are broker-managed trailing stops?▾
When DirectPipe enters a trade, it simultaneously places a trailing stop order using Tradovate's native trailing-stop order type. This order is managed by Tradovate's servers — not by DirectPipe, and not by your computer. If our server goes offline, Tradovate continues managing your trailing stop normally. Webhook middleware can't do this — they simulate trails on their own servers, so an outage on their end means your trail stops updating. That's the core difference.
Will this work with my strategy?▾
If your strategy runs on TradingView and uses webhook alerts, it works with DirectPipe. We don't see your strategy logic — we just execute the signals it sends. Any strategy, any timeframe, any instrument.
What brokers do you support?▾
We're launching with Tradovate for futures. Rithmic, Interactive Brokers, and crypto exchanges are on the roadmap. If your broker has an API, we can likely support it.
What do I put in the TradingView alert message?▾
Use {{strategy.order.alert_message}} if your strategy has built-in alert messages.
Otherwise use this format:
{"action": "buy", "ticker": "MGCM6"}
{"action": "sell", "ticker": "MGCM6"}
{"action": "exit"}
Important: Use your Tradovate contract symbol, not the TradingView symbol. For example: MGCM6 not MGC1!, ESM6 not ES1!, NQM6 not NQ1!.
How is this different from a trade copier?▾
Trade copiers execute sequentially — Account 1 fills, then Account 2, then Account 3. By Account 10, price has moved. DirectPipe executes all accounts in the same millisecond, same price. No cascade slippage, no master/slave setup.
Is my data secure?▾
AES-256 encryption. Your credentials are encrypted at rest and never stored in plain text. Your API keys stay under your control — we never have withdrawal access to your account. You can set trade-only permissions on your Tradovate API key.
Can I use this with prop firm accounts?▾
If your prop firm uses Tradovate, yes. Funded traders can use DirectPipe to execute across multiple evaluation and funded accounts simultaneously. Check with your prop firm that API trading is permitted.
What happens if your server goes down?▾
Your existing positions are protected by broker-managed trailing stops that live on Tradovate's servers — not ours. If DirectPipe goes offline, your exits still fire normally. No orphan positions.
Can I cancel anytime?▾
Yes. Monthly subscription, cancel anytime, no contracts, no cancellation fees. We keep you by being fast, not by locking you in.
