How to update the algo in TradingView

Every so often we ship an improvement to a strategy. Applying it takes a single click — exactly like updating any other indicator on TradingView. Your alert, settings, and webhook stay in place.

01

Spot the update

When an update is available, a purple update badge appears next to the strategy's name — on your chart and in the Indicators window. It's the same purple update marker TradingView shows for any invite-only or community script.

Apply it

Click the purple update sign once to confirm the update. That's the whole process — the strategy reloads on your chart with the new version, exactly like confirming an update on any other indicator.

Done — you're on the latest version.
There's nothing to re-add. Your webhook alert and settings stay intact. After updating, it's worth a quick glance at your Alerts panel to confirm the alert is still active. Apply the update whenever you see the purple badge to make sure you're always trading the best version.
