The dialog shows the entered price and the current best bid/ask, and includes a Do not show this warning again checkbox.
Disable: Crossing Limit orders are submitted immediately without the warning.
The warning is enabled by default. The dialog checkbox and this toggle share the same global setting and stay in sync.
The warning is informational only — it does not block the order. If you confirm, the order is submitted with the original price. The warning applies only to standard Limit orders; Stop-limit, Take-profit-limit, IOC, FOK, and other order types are not affected. If best bid or best ask data is unavailable (empty book or disconnected feed), the order is submitted without the warning.

TradingView Webhooks
Use TradingView Webhooks to automatically execute orders on your trading account based on alerts from TradingView. When a TradingView alert triggers, it sends a webhook request to B2TRADER, which places an order according to the parameters specified in the alert message.
This feature supports all market types: Spot, CFD, and Perpetual Futures.

Navigate to the TradingView Webhooks tab.
Click + Create new.
In the popup, fill in a Name for the key.
Click Create.
The popup displays the generated API key and the webhook URL. Copy both values and store them securely.
The API key is shown only once at creation. It can't be retrieved after closing the popup.
The following limits apply:
Maximum 10 active keys per user
Each key is valid for 1 year from creation
Keys can be revoked at any time
Step 2: Configure the alert in TradingView
In TradingView, create a new alert or edit an existing one.
In the Notifications section, enable Webhook URL.
Paste the webhook URL copied from the terminal.
