# Step 1

**AlgoSniper is a TradingView indicator.**

Set up your TradingView account and claim your AlgoSniper indicators.

AlgoSniper runs inside TradingView. You'll need a TradingView account — free or paid — before you can access the indicator. Follow the steps below to get set up.

#### How to get access

**1. Create a TradingView account**

Go to tradingview\.com and create an account if you don't already have one. A free account works fine — no paid plan needed.

**2. Find your TradingView username**

Your username is the @handle from your profile — NOT your email and NOT your display name.

To find it: log into TradingView → click your profile icon (top right) → your username is right there.

Example: `tradingview.com/u/MylesGInvestments/` → username = **MylesGInvestments**

**3. Complete your AlgoSniper purchase**

Select your plan and complete checkout on Whop.

**4. Connect your TradingView account and claim your indicators**

In the Whop community, click **"Connect Your TradingView"** in the left menu. Type your TradingView username, hit **Set**, then hit **Claim Indicators**. Both AlgoSniper and AlgoSniper Momentum push to your TradingView account instantly.

**5. Add the indicators to your chart**

Open TradingView → open any chart → **Indicators → Invite-Only Scripts** tab → click both AlgoSniper indicators to add them. They will NOT appear in the search bar — only under Invite-Only Scripts.

#### Entered the wrong username?

Fix it yourself — go back to **"Connect Your TradingView"** in the left menu, enter the correct username, and hit **Set** again. Access transfers to the correct account automatically. No need to contact us.

#### Access still not showing?

The system grants access automatically, but occasionally it needs a manual review. If your indicators haven't appeared within a few minutes:

* Double-check your username on the Connect Your TradingView page
* Log fully out of TradingView and back in
* Check the **Invite-Only Scripts** tab — not search

Still nothing? Message us and we'll get it sorted within 1 business hour.

#### Contact support

**Whop:** DM us directly in the community (fastest)

**Email:** <info@algosniper.com>

Include your TradingView username so we can fix it in one reply.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

```
GET https://docs.algosniper.com/basics/step-1.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
