3. Enter Your Symbol

Type in the exact symbol as shown on your TradingView chart. Futures often end in 1! (nearest expiry) or use contract codes like METK5. Ensure you select the most liquid contract to avoid re‑creating alerts later.

Symbol input field — Enter the TradingView symbol

For example, here we use the symbol exactly as displayed in the chart’s top‑left:
