Lune vs TradersPost | TradingView Automation Compared

Both platforms automate TradingView alerts to brokers. Lune is purpose-built for futures with typically 5-10ms execution on websocket routes, built-in risk management, and an integrated trading journal. TradersPost covers more asset classes but operates as a webhook relay without risk controls or trading tools.

Where Lune excels

Sub-10ms Futures Execution

Lune processes TradingView alerts in typically 5-10ms on websocket routes with cloud infrastructure and persistent broker connections. TradersPost routes webhooks through a relay layer that adds 100-250ms of latency on every order.

Built-in Risk Management

Per-account daily loss limits, max position sizes, trailing drawdown tracking, and prop firm rule enforcement. TradersPost forwards orders without any risk layer, so you need external tools or manual monitoring.

All-in-One Trading Platform

Automation, trading journal with AI insights, Trade Copier, TradingView indicators, and a real-time cockpit. TradersPost is a single-purpose alert relay that requires separate subscriptions for journaling, risk tools, and analytics.

Prop Firm Ready

Trailing drawdown rules, daily loss caps, and firm-specific presets keep you compliant automatically. Critical for funded accounts where a single rule violation means losing your account.

Where TradersPost excels

Multi-Asset Coverage

TradersPost supports stocks, options, and crypto alongside futures. If you trade across multiple asset classes from TradingView, their broader broker integrations cover more ground.

More Broker Integrations

With 17+ connected brokers including TradeStation, Alpaca, Interactive Brokers, and Coinbase, TradersPost offers wider compatibility for traders who use non-futures platforms.

The ecosystem advantage

Futures traders typically subscribe to a journal, a risk tool, charting indicators, and an automation platform from four different companies. These tools do not share data, so you manually reconcile everything. Lune replaces all four with products that share the same account connections, trade data, and risk state. Your journal auto-syncs every fill. Your risk limits enforce in real-time before orders reach the broker. Your indicators feed directly into automation. The result is less total cost, zero manual data entry, and a single platform that actually understands your trading.

FAQ

Common questions
