How PipSync works

What actually happens between a message in a channel and a filled order at your broker — and where you can intervene.

The pipeline

PipSync is a routing platform. It reads signals, decides whether and how large to trade, and forwards orders to your broker. It never holds your money.

StageWhat happensWhere you control it
IngestA message arrives from Telegram, Discord or a TradingView webhook.Channels
ParseThe parser extracts symbol, side, entry, SL and TP, and scores its own confidence.Settings → Telegram
GateCompleteness, filters, confidence threshold, duplicate detection.Channel settings
SizeRisk rules turn a signal into a lot size for each target account.Settings → Trading
RouteThe order goes to every matching broker account.Trading Accounts
ManageSL/TP updates and closes from the same channel are applied to the open position.Trading Hub

The completeness gate

A signal without a stop-loss is not a signal, it is a hope. PipSync refuses to open a position when required fields are missing, and shows the rejected message in the channel activity log with the reason.

  • Missing symbol or direction → rejected, never guessed.
  • Missing stop-loss → rejected unless you explicitly allow SL-less entries for that channel.
  • Unknown symbol at your broker → rejected with the symbol PipSync tried.
  • Below your confidence threshold → held for manual approval instead of executed.

Follow-up messages

Most providers post updates after the entry: move the stop to break-even, close half, take the second target. PipSync matches those messages back to the position they belong to and applies them.

  • "SL to entry" / "move to BE" → modifies the stop on the open position.
  • "TP1 hit, close half" → partial close, remainder keeps running.
  • "Close now" → market close of the matched position.
  • Updates that arrive after the position is already closed are logged and discarded.
If an update cannot be matched to an open position, it is never applied to a random trade. Unmatched updates are visible in the channel activity log.

One signal, several accounts

A source is linked to accounts, not to one account. The same signal can open a 0.02 lot position on your live account and a 1.0 lot position on a prop-firm challenge, because each account carries its own risk settings.

Per-account limits per plan are listed under Plans and limits.

Send the raw signal, the timestamp and the account name — that is usually enough to answer on the first reply.
