In simple English
This tool connects trading alerts from websites or AI agents directly to your broker account. It sits on your own server and checks every trade against strict safety rules before it goes through. It keeps all your account passwords and keys on your own machine. It records every signal and trade so you can review what happened later. It costs nothing to run, though you need a computer or server turned on all the time.
What it is
Trade Relay is an open-source execution engine written in TypeScript that runs as a single Node.js process backed by a SQLite database. It parses incoming webhooks, applies mandatory risk limits, and routes orders through a shared broker kit while displaying everything on a built-in dashboard.
What it is good for
Solo builders and traders who want to automate their trading strategies from TradingView alerts or AI agents without trusting a third-party hosted service with their broker credentials.
- Runs entirely on your own server with no external accounts or telemetry.
- Built-in safety rails like size limits and kill switches are enabled by default.
- Includes a visual dashboard with a flight recorder and performance tape.
- Requires Node.js 22.13 or newer and basic command-line knowledge to set up.
- You are entirely responsible for server uptime and managing your own risk rules.
- Live trading with real money carries inherent financial risks if misconfigured.
