Descriptions
This signal/trade copier for TradingView -> MetaTrader consists of three parts:
- Google Chrome browser at your computer
- Copier EA as you purchase from here
- Bridge app running over Windows 64-bit OS (e.g. Windows 10 or 11 or Windows Server)
You could find the user guide & bridge app download link from this post.
The latest version 2.36 of bridge app is updated on June 16, 2022.
That bridge app will seamlessly scan TradingView alert popup at Google Chrome and feedback to this Copier EA for trade process (through secured data interchange).
The reason to use TradingView alert popup is that's available for all users - while other alert approach, e.g. webhook, might be only applicable for paid members.

EA variables
Lots mode - 3 options: 'fixed lots', 'Lots by equity percentage', 'Lots by loss percentage', each has its own variable to set.
Symbol mapping list - that's for special trade symbol mapping. if that's not set, EA will use the same symbol name from TradingView for trade.
if MT5 has different symbol name, you could set by,
