Official documentation

Set it up in five steps

  1. 1

    Connect Charles Schwab

    Select Integrations, then the Schwab card. Sign in at Schwab. Nyria gets a token that places and cancels orders.

  2. 2

    Create a strategy

    Select Create strategy and pick TradingView as the alert source. Choose stocks or options and set what an entry and an exit do. Copy the strategy's webhook URL.

  3. 3

    Paste the URL into TradingView

    Create an alert on your chart. Open Notifications, tick Webhook URL, paste the strategy URL and select Apply. Webhooks need a paid TradingView plan with two-factor sign-in on.

  4. 4

    Test on Nyria Paper

    Nyria connects live Schwab accounts only, so test it free on Nyria Paper first. Deploy a paper bot, set a Budget per entry and let real alerts fire.

  5. 5

    Deploy a bot on Schwab

    Deploy a second bot and pick the Schwab account on the Account step. A live bot needs a Nyria Pro plan, or a Premium strategy you've bought. Reconnect every 7 days.

TradingView to Schwab auto trade

  • A TradingView alert can't call the Schwab API by itself.
  • It can only send a webhook. A receiver has to place the order.
  • Nyria is that receiver. It sends the order through Schwab's Trader API.
  • The bot sets the size from its budget per entry. The alert never does.
  • Alert to order, sub-second.

What trades at Schwab

  • Stocks and ETFs in whole shares.
  • Options, single legs and spreads up to 4 legs.
  • Set the legs once. Each alert sends the spread as one order, never legged in.
  • An SPX alert trades the PM-settled SPXW chain, 0DTE included.
  • Crypto and futures aren't offered on the Schwab API.

Before you connect

  • A new account can take 1 to 3 business days to reach API access.
  • Options need approval at the level each trade uses.
  • You sign in at Schwab itself. Nyria doesn't hold the login.

Keep the connection alive

  • Charles Schwab ends access every 7 days. Reconnect every 7 days.
  • The token places and cancels orders. It can't move money.
  • It's encrypted at rest.

How options get picked

  • For options, the contract comes from the strategy's rules.
  • Set each leg's call or put, strike and expiry on the strategy once.
  • Long uses the call rule saved on your strategy, short the put rule.
  • Options are priced per contract, and one contract covers 100 shares.
  • A $2.00 premium costs $200, so a $500 budget buys 2 contracts.

What it can't do

  • Paper trading on Schwab. Nyria connects live Schwab accounts only.
  • Order forms beyond market and limit. Charles Schwab accepts none.
  • Stops and targets are exit alerts. An exit alert can flatten a position.
  • Moving money. The token places and cancels orders only.
