Documentation

ChronoShield receives the alerts from your TradingView strategies and executes them on your exchange, protecting them end to end (stop-loss, take-profits, break-even, trailing, circuit breaker). In 4 steps:

1. Connect an exchange account with a "trade only" API key.
2. Create a webhook (strategy) and pick the execution account.
3. Set your protections in "Risk Management".
4. Connect TradingView: paste the JSON message into the alert.

Go to My Account → My Exchanges, click "Add an account", choose the exchange (Bybit, Hyperliquid), give it a name, then enter your API credentials.

On Bybit, you can connect a Demo Trading account (virtual funds) to test everything without risking a cent. When adding a Bybit account, tick "Demo account". Demo accounts need no IP whitelist and appear with a DEMO badge.

The flow is identical to live: signal → order + atomic stop-loss → active protections. Ideal for validating your strategy before going live.

ChronoShield centralizes multiple accounts in one place — typically your different prop firm challenges. You can connect several accounts on the same exchange (e.g. 3 Bybit accounts), each with its own name.

The dashboard aggregates all your accounts: each one's positions, with real and demo capital kept separate (never mixed).

If an account is driven by another tool (a third-party bot, or manually), tick "Externally managed account (read-only)" when adding/editing it. ChronoShield displays it but never trades on it:

• excluded from the Emergency Stop (never closes its positions);
• can't be linked to a strategy;
• READ-ONLY badge.

Go to Webhooks → New Webhook. Name the strategy and choose the execution account (the one orders will be sent to). ChronoShield then generates a webhook URL and a JSON message to paste into TradingView.

Three message formats are available:

• Strategy (dynamic) — for a TradingView strategy: the action (buy/sell/close) is inferred automatically.
• Indicator: LONG / SHORT / CLOSE — for an indicator: create one alert per direction.

Example of a dynamic message:

1. On TradingView, add your strategy/indicator to the chart.
2. Create an alert. Under Notifications → Webhook URL, paste the URL provided by ChronoShield.
3. In the Message field, paste the matching JSON.
4. Confirm. The alert works even with your browser closed — TradingView sends the webhook 24/7.

Before you start, the Pine Checker analyses your Pine Script code and tells you the exact way to wire it (dynamic strategy, or 3 alerts for an indicator). Paste your code, follow the instructions, then validate the strategy.

Everything is set in Risk Management, independently for each strategy:

• Risk per trade & leverage — position size derives from the stop distance, not from leverage.
• Atomic Stop-Loss — placed at the same time as the entry: never an unprotected position.
• Take-Profits — up to 3 partial profit-taking levels.
• Break-Even — moves the SL to the entry price as soon as the target profit is reached.
• Trailing Stop (ATR) — follows the price based on real market volatility.
• Circuit Breaker — suspends trading if the daily or total drawdown exceeds your limits (recommended for prop firms).

The dashboard shows your capital (real, demo excluded), your open positions (tagged by account), your P/L and your history. Click a position to see its ChronoShield lifecycle (entry, SL, TP, break-even…) — or the "externally managed" note if the position comes from a third-party account.

The "Emergency Stop" button immediately closes all open positions of the selected account and pauses protection (no new orders).

• Non-custodial — your funds stay on your exchange; ChronoShield never has access to them.
• Encrypted keys — your API keys are encrypted (AES-256-GCM) and only decrypted in memory, for the duration of an order.
• Trade Only + IP whitelist — recommended for every key.
• Two-factor authentication (2FA) — enable it in My Account.

Does ChronoShield have access to my money?

No. Your keys are "Trade Only": no withdrawal possible. Your money stays on your exchange.

Do I need to keep TradingView open?

No. Once the alert is created, it works 24/7 even with your browser closed.

Can I manage several prop firms?

Yes — it's one of the key strengths: connect several named accounts, even on the same exchange, and manage/view everything from a single dashboard.

Can I cancel any time?

Yes, no commitment, from your account area.
