TradingView alert fired but no IBKR order appeared

Quick answer

Find the first missing stage. An alert firing, a webhook arriving, an app accepting it, and IBKR accepting an order are separate events. Start with logs before changing TWS settings.

Educational software guidance. Trading involves risk. Read the financial and information disclaimers.

Step by step

1 In TradingView, open the Alerts sidebar and select Log. Find the exact event time and read its available webhook status. A chart mark alone is not an alert record. See screenshot.
2 In PickMyTrade, select IB and open Alerts. Set the date range and use Filter if needed. Find the same time and product; an empty list is not a receipt. See screenshot.
3 If a receipt exists, read its processing result. In Orders → Columns, locate Status, Reject Reason and Order Id to trace any resulting order. See screenshot.
4 Open IB Connections. No Connections Found is not a ready desktop link, even if the Alerts view says Account Running. Check TWS Activity for the matching order or rejection. See screenshot.
5 Fix the first failed stage, then check existing broker orders before any retry.

A practical example

Suppose TradingView shows an alert but PickMyTrade has no record of it. Start with the web address and delivery result. Now suppose PickMyTrade received it and TWS shows a rejection. That is a different case: read the broker reason. A stage-by-stage trace avoids changing a good TWS setup to fix a webhook that never reached its receiver.

Illustrative scenario, not a record of a trade placed during this review.

PickMyTrade IB Connections with No Connections Found — This authenticated account has no IB connections. The empty panel shows the location only; it does not demonstrate a working broker link. Captured in PickMyTrade on 3 October 2026. Open the image for full size.

Empty TWS Activity Orders panel and Trades tab — Use Orders to inspect order state and Trades to inspect executions. This empty paper view shows the location; it does not reproduce a rejection or prove a fill. Captured in TWS paper mode on 3 October 2026. Open the image for full size.

How to confirm the result You should identify one specific failed stage and be able to trace the next paper test through it.

Mistake to avoid

Do not diagnose a missing webhook by disabling TWS order precautions.
