How it works

From market to a Pine Script strategy in four steps.

The research happens in BreakoutOS. The finished strategy lands in TradingView as a Pine Script strategy you can add to any chart and check in the Strategy Tester.

01Breakout Radar

Pick a market

Breakout Radar scores each session of a market for breakout direction and how long breakouts typically last, so you start where the structure's there.

02Breakout Trading PRO

Build the strategy

Breakout Trading PRO builds and tests breakout strategies for that market, point-and-click, using the Mr Breakouts Formula. Pick the one you want to take further.

03Pine Script export

Copy the Pine Script

The export writes the whole strategy in Pine Script, entries, exits and filters included. The header tells you which chart timezone and session settings to match.

Add it to your chart

Paste it into the Pine Editor, save it and add it to a chart. It shows up in the Strategy Tester like any strategy you'd written yourself.

The proof

What you tested is what TradingView trades.

One strategy, backtested in BreakoutOS, then exported and backtested again in TradingView's Strategy Tester. The Pine Script export reproduces the BreakoutOS results closely, so the strategy you researched is the one on your chart.

389 of the 393 trades match exactly. The other four come from three Thanksgiving-week early closes: TradingView holds those trades into the next session, while BreakoutOS exits at the early close and takes one extra trade. Both sides ran on TradingView's own NQ data, so the totals differ from our other platform pages. Hypothetical backtest results on both sides, not live trading. See the Hypothetical Performance Disclosure at the foot of this page.

Same rules

The entry, the exit and the filters you tested in BreakoutOS, written out as a Pine Script strategy.

Same session times

Session and timezone settings are spelled out in the code header, so the trades land on the same bars.

Differences you can trace

Small gaps can still come from your chart's data or the strategy's properties in TradingView. There's a guide inside BreakoutOS for tracking them down.

Bring your own strategy

BreakoutOS builds and tests breakout strategies on all of them. Which ones you run in TradingView depends on your plan and data.

Common mistakes

Five TradingView strategy mistakes (and how to avoid them.)

TradingView makes it quick to chart an idea and test it. The mistakes that cost traders most happen around that: what to build, whether the result is real, and whether it's still working live.

TradingView's screeners show what's moving today. They won't tell you which markets and sessions have broken out cleanly for years and which ones chop around their levels, so most traders build on whatever's already on their watchlist.

How BreakoutOS fixes it

Breakout Radar scores each market and session for breakout potential, and Market Mapper shows where to focus, before you write a line of Pine Script.

Breakout Radar scoring each session of a market for breakout direction and duration

The Public Library has thousands of community scripts, and the Pine Editor will run any of them. Knowing which idea is worth trading is still up to you, and a published script's backtest only shows how it did on the chart it was built for.

The Strategy Tester shows exactly how a script traded the bars on your chart. Tweak the inputs enough times and the curve will look great, because it's been fitted to that history.

TradingView shows your strategy's trades and P&L as they happen. It doesn't compare them with what the backtest says is normal for that strategy, so traders quit good strategies in ordinary dips and keep trading broken ones.

In TradingView each strategy is tested on its own chart, so you rarely see how several would have traded together, or how their losing streaks would have stacked up.

Common questions

TradingView strategy questions.

No. BreakoutOS runs in your browser, and so does TradingView. When a strategy's ready, you copy the Pine Script, paste it into the Pine Editor and add it to a chart.
A strategy. It's written as a Pine Script strategy, so once it's on your chart it shows its trades on the bars and its results in the Strategy Tester, like any other strategy script.
The exported strategy runs on your chart and in the Strategy Tester. To send its trades to a broker automatically, TradingView strategies use alerts, which you'd connect to a broker or service that accepts them. What's possible depends on your TradingView plan and your broker.
Often, yes. Many futures prop firms let you trade from TradingView charts, usually through a Tradovate connection. Rules on automated trading differ from firm to firm, so check yours before you connect a strategy.
No. You build strategies point-and-click in BreakoutOS, and the export writes the Pine Script for you. You copy it, paste it into the Pine Editor and add it to a chart. That's the only part that happens in TradingView.
Very closely. BreakoutOS has a built-in parity checker, and we've tested thousands of strategies on each platform: every one matched at least 95%, and most match 98-99%. Small differences come from holidays, shortened sessions and platform-specific edge cases, and every strategy builder runs into them. They can also come from the data on your chart, the chart's timezone or the strategy's properties in TradingView. The header of every export lists the settings to match, and there's a guide inside BreakoutOS for fixing discrepancies. Results on both sides are hypothetical backtests, not live trading.
Usually because they were built and tuned on one stretch of history, so the backtest is partly a fit to that history. BreakoutOS builds strategies on one slice of data, tests them on data they never saw, and scores how robust each one is before you export it. For strategies you already run, the Backtest Auditor checks for the same problem. None of it guarantees future results, and all results are hypothetical.
Any market you've got price data for. BreakoutOS tests on data you upload as ASCII or CSV. TradingView traders often start with stocks, crypto like Bitcoin, forex pairs like EUR/USD, or index futures like the E-mini Nasdaq-100 (NQ).
BreakoutOS comes with a few sample datasets for testing, including crypto and 60-minute data for NQ, ES, AAPL and EUR/USD. They're for trying things out. For strategies you plan to trade, test on data that matches your TradingView chart: the same market, exchange and session. Data can differ between providers, so testing on matching data is what makes BreakoutOS and TradingView line up.
Build is for building new breakout strategies. It has Breakout Radar, Market Mapper, Breakout Explorer and Breakout Trading PRO, with Pine Script export on every strategy. Scale is for traders who already have strategies. It adds the Backtest Auditor, Indicator Matcher, MQ Portfolio Builder and Strategy Health Monitor, and includes every Build tool.
Build and Scale are memberships. You'll find the current prices and plans on the BreakoutOS Build and BreakoutOS Scale pages. TradingView has its own plans, from free upward, so check which features you need on theirs.
