Paid for PickMyTrade but Still Inactive? Check the Connection

If your PickMyTrade subscription still appears inactive after payment, check which broker connection the plan is assigned to before buying again. PickMyTrade.io documents a connection-assignment step after purchase. A successful payment and an active subscription on the intended connection are separate checks, and neither alone confirms that a broker order will execute. Start by identifying

PickMyTrade Free Trial: Checklist Before Paying

Use the PickMyTrade free trial to check your broker connection, run an entry-and-exit test and confirm which subscription your setup needs.

Ironbeam PickMyTrade: API Setup and First-Order Checks

An Ironbeam PickMyTrade connection needs approved broker API access, the correct Demo or Live environment and a verified destination account. After connecting, generate the current Ironbeam-specific alert configuration and follow one event through TradingView, PickMyTrade and the broker.

PickMyTrade VPS: Does Your Computer Need to Stay On?

Does PickMyTrade need your computer on? It depends on the broker connection you use. TradingView alerts run on TradingView’s servers, so a closed chart does not stop an active alert.

Order Fills Only vs alert() Function Calls: Setup Guide

The order fills only vs alert() function calls choice depends on which event should send your order and where its message is built.

Stop Automated Trading in PickMyTrade: Pause Guide

To stop automated trading in PickMyTrade, use the documented pause control and then check your broker’s positions and working orders. Pausing execution is a different action from flattening an account. A position can remain open, an entry order can still be working, and an exit that depends on a future webhook may need attention.

TradingView Stale Webhook: Timestamps vs Order Expiry

A TradingView stale webhook is an alert that arrives after the signal is no longer timely for your trading plan. A timestamp helps identify the delay, but it does not automatically reject an old message. Order expiry controls how long a submitted order can remain working, which is a separate question.
