What is SignalForge AI (the EA Forge?)

You may know us as EA Forge. That name stuck because our first product was an Expert Advisor that bridged TradingView alerts to MetaTrader 5. We rebranded to SignalForge AI to reflect the full platform we have built since then — but the core idea is the same: connect your TradingView Pine Scripts to your MT5 terminal so trades execute automatically.

SignalForge AI is the most affordable TradingView-to-MT5 bridge on the market. Plans start at $4.99/mo. We built it specifically for prop-firm traders who need rock-solid risk controls, low latency, and zero slippage. Whether you trade XAUUSD, EURUSD, or any other pair, the EA handles the entire execution pipeline.

What the SignalForge EA does

The EA is the engine that runs inside your MetaTrader 5 terminal. Here is what it handles:

  • Webhook execution — receives JSON alerts from TradingView and converts them into MT5 orders in milliseconds.
  • Symbol resolution — automatically maps your TradingView symbol to the correct MT5 broker symbol (e.g. XAUUSD to XAUUSD.m).
  • Prop Firm Shield — built-in daily and overall drawdown limits that pause trading automatically when thresholds are hit. Designed for FTMO, MyFundedFX, and other prop firms.
  • News Filter — pauses execution around high-impact events (NFP, CPI, FOMC) so you avoid unpredictable spikes.
  • Trend Filter — blocks counter-trend trades when the broader market direction does not align with your signal.
  • Telegram notifications — get instant alerts on every trade open, close, and drawdown event right in your Telegram.
