PineConnector vs Tradeus
A hosted TradingView-to-MT5 bridge that charges per connection: one, three or five. We connect six platforms and count no accounts on any plan.
A TradingView-to-MetaTrader bridge, and on their current hosted product that means MetaTrader 5 and nothing else. It is the one entry here that charges by the number of connections — one, three or five — where every plan on this side leaves accounts uncounted. If you run one MT5 account and want it hosted for you, their cheapest tier is a smaller commitment than ours; past the first account the two price curves separate quickly.
Side by side
Every row is what their own page says.
No row below is our opinion of PineConnector. Each one links the page on their site it was read from, so you can check it rather than take it — and any row we could not source that way is not on this page at all.

About PineConnector
PineConnector turns TradingView alerts into MetaTrader orders. The current product sells three monthly tiers, each bundling a number of concurrent connections with the same number of managed hosted MetaTrader instances, and a one-off paid trial.
Tradeus is a hosted layer between a signal and a funded account. A TradingView alert arrives at an endpoint, a trade on one account is mirrored to the others, and each account carries daily limits of its own: when one is hit, the account locks and we send it no new entry until the lock ends. It runs on our machines: on Tradovate, Rithmic, TradeLocker and Capital.com there is nothing to install and nothing of yours has to be awake, and a MetaTrader 5 account needs its own terminal running. It connects to Tradovate, Rithmic, TradeLocker, Capital.com and MetaTrader 5, which is what the prop firms our users trade with issue credentials for, and to Alpaca for US shares and crypto.
Which one
There is a case for each, and this is it.
Choose PineConnector if
You trade one MetaTrader 5 account, you want somebody else to run the terminal, and the alerts you send come from TradingView. At one connection their entry tier is a smaller monthly commitment than the plan here that carries a webhook, and the hosted instance is included rather than something you arrange.
Choose Tradeus if
You have more than one account, or any account that is not MetaTrader 5. The count is the whole difference: their price rises at the second and fourth connection and ours does not rise at all, and five of the six platforms we reach are ones their hosted product does not.
Questions
What people ask about PineConnector and Tradeus.
Why print their launch price and their standard price?
Because their page prints both, and choosing one would have shaded the comparison. The launch price alone makes them look cheaper than a subscriber starting later may pay; the standard price alone makes them look dearer than today. Neither is ours to pick.
Is it really MetaTrader 5 only? It is usually described as an MT4 and MT5 bridge.
That is what their own licence page says of the current hosted product: “PineConnector Edge hosted instances support MetaTrader 5 only.” We quote the page rather than the reputation, and if the page changes this row goes rather than gets softened.
