  • Currently, OptionTrigger supports Interactive Brokers (IBKR) via the TWS API. Moomoo integration is in development and is not available today. More brokers will follow based on user demand.

  • No tool can guarantee discipline—that's ultimately on you. What OptionTrigger does is lower the barrier: it's easier to NOT touch your stop-loss than to force yourself to click sell when emotions are high. The visual TP/SL acts as a psychological reminder, and the automation protects you even when you freeze.

  • OptionTrigger works with any TradingView plan, including the free version. However, real-time data subscriptions from TradingView may be required for accurate option pricing.

  • Yes! OptionTrigger Desktop runs locally and connects to your broker through a local backend using official APIs (IBKR TWS/Gateway). We never store your login credentials. All trading happens through your broker's secure API.

  • Absolutely! We highly recommend testing with paper trading first. OptionTrigger works seamlessly with IBKR's paper trading accounts.

  • OptionTrigger Desktop is available for Windows and macOS. Install Desktop, inject into TradingView Desktop, and run the local broker backend on the same machine. We do not distribute via the Chrome Web Store.

  • Yes! The Free plan includes basic features like viewing option prices on charts and chart annotations. You can start using it right away - no credit card required. Upgrade to Premium when you're ready to place real orders.
