CSV Data Ingestion

CSV ingestion enables historical auditing and manual logic verification for users operating without a real-time webhook connection.

1. Source Data Preparation

Strategy Tester Data

Objective: Verifying logic stability and signal generation.

1. Initialize Strategy Tester in TradingView.
2. Select the List of Trades tab.
3. Click Export CSV.

Historical Alert Logs

Objective: Auditing historical signal capture.

1. Access the Alerts Log in TradingView.
2. Filter by the target strategy.
3. Click Export CSV.

2. Ingestion Workflow

1. Access the Backtest vs Alerts interface.
2. Upload Datasets: Drag the Strategy Tester CSV into the primary upload zone.
3. Schema Mapping: Confirm the mapping for Price, Time, and Position Direction.
   • Note: The engine is designed to automatically detect standard TradingView export headers.

3. Analytical Applications

Logic Reconciliation All Plans

Compare Strategy Tester records against Alert History to identify signal omission—instances where backtesting shows a trade that failed to initiate a real-time alert.

Execution Auditing Basic & Pro

Ingest historical broker trade reports to quantify slippage and latency variance from previous trading sessions.
