Setup Guide — Minesix.io

Step 0

Requirements

Before connecting, make sure you have:

✓

TradingView Pro, Pro+ or Premium account

Free plan does not support webhook alerts. See how to upgrade →

✓

Exness MT5 Account (Required)

Minesix is built exclusively for Exness MT5 for sub-millisecond execution speed and raw spread access. Other brokers are not supported. You'll need your Exness Account Number, Trading Password, and Server Name (e.g. Exness-Real4).

✓

Minesix.io account (Base or Pro)

Your webhook URL is generated on account creation. Create account →

Step 1

Upgrade TradingView to Pro

Webhook alerts are a paid TradingView feature. Here's why you need it and how to get the best price:

💡

Why Pro is Required

TradingView's free plan only supports browser notifications and email alerts. Webhook HTTP calls — which send your signal to Minesix — require Pro plan or above.

Step 2

Connect Your MT5 Account

Go to your Minesix Dashboard and fill in your MT5 credentials under "MT5 Account Connection".

1

Open your MT5 terminal and go to Help → About to find your server name.

2

In your Minesix dashboard, click MT5 Connection → Update Credentials.

3

Enter your account number, investor password (read-only recommended), and server name.

4

Click Save & Test Connection. Green indicator = connected.

🛡

Security Note

We recommend using your investor password (read-only) for monitoring, or your main password if you want execution. All credentials are AES-256 encrypted at rest.

Step 3

Create a TradingView Webhook Alert

In TradingView, go to the Alerts panel (clock icon) and create a new alert.

1

Click the Alert button (clock icon) in the top toolbar, then Create Alert.

2

Set your trigger condition (e.g., strategy signal, indicator cross, price level).

3

Scroll down to Alert Actions → enable Webhook URL.

4

Paste your Minesix Webhook URL (from your dashboard). It looks like: https://api.minesix.io/wh/usr_xxxxx

5

In the Message field, paste the JSON payload (see next section).

Step 4

JSON Payload Template

Copy this template into your TradingView alert message field. Minesix will parse this to identify the signal.

JSON

{
  "action": "{{strategy.order.action}}",
  "symbol": "{{ticker}}",
  "price":  {{close}},
  "volume": 0.01,
  "sl":     {{strategy.order.stop_loss}},
  "tp":     {{strategy.order.take_profit}},
  "comment": "MinesixBridge"
}

FieldDescriptionRequired

actionBUY or SELL. Use TV variable {{strategy.order.action}}Yes

symbolInstrument to trade. Use {{ticker}} for dynamic — see warning below.Yes

priceEntry price. Use {{close}} for market.No

volumeLot size. Fixed number (e.g., 0.01).Yes

slStop loss price. Optional — AI can manage this.No

tpTake profit price. Optional — AI trailing handles this.No

⚠️

TradingView Ticker Format Warning

TradingView's {{ticker}} variable may include the exchange prefix, e.g. OANDA:XAUUSD or FX_IDC:EURUSD. Exness rejects these — it expects clean symbols like XAUUSDm or XAUUSD. Use the Symbol Mapping feature in Settings → Webhook to map incoming symbols to your exact Exness instrument names.

Step 5

Test Your Signal

Before going live, send a test signal to verify your setup.

1

In TradingView, click Test on your alert to fire it once manually.

2

Check your Minesix Signal Log. You should see a new entry appear within 2 seconds.

3

If the signal shows ✓ EXEC — it worked! If ✗ BLOCK, check the reason in the log.

Step 6

Go Live 🚀

Once your test passes, activate your Custom Webhook Mode or SAT Mode from the dashboard. Your signals will now be filtered by AI and executed to your MT5 account automatically.

✦

Pro Tip: Enable SAT Mode

Pro plan users can activate SAT Mode alongside their custom webhooks. SAT Mode runs our flagship SATS algorithm on XAUUSD independently — doubling your automation coverage.
