What affects the price

Two scripts can cost very differently for the same idea, depending on how much has to be engineered around it. The main drivers are:

What is always included

Whatever the size of the project, the price includes the things that make the script genuinely yours and dependable:

Why fixed price, not hourly

Hourly billing pushes the risk of unknowns onto you. We do the opposite: we scope the script on a short call, agree the rules in writing, and quote a single fixed price up front. You know the cost before you commit. See the full Pine Script development service, or read the Pine Script tutorial to sharpen your brief before we start.

Frequently asked

How much does a Pine Script developer cost?

A custom Pine Script project typically costs from around €120 for a simple indicator or alert, €300 to €800 for a backtestable strategy, and €1,000 or more for an advanced strategy, screener or multi-timeframe system. Modifications start from around €90. The price depends on complexity, and every project is quoted at a fixed price before work starts.

What affects the cost of a Pine Script indicator or strategy?

Mainly the complexity: whether it is an indicator or a full strategy, how many conditions and timeframes are involved, whether it needs a screener or scanner, whether it must be repaint-safe, and how alerts or webhook signals are wired. Clear, well-defined rules keep the cost down.

Do you charge hourly or a fixed price?

Fixed price. We scope the script on a short call, agree the rules in writing, and quote a single fixed price before starting, so there are no surprises.

Is the Pine Script source code included and can I edit it?

Yes. Every project is delivered with its full Pine Script source code and editable inputs, so the indicator or strategy stays yours to run, tune and extend on TradingView.

How much does it cost to modify or fix an existing Pine Script?

Modifications, bug fixes and small conversions usually start from around €90, depending on the size of the change and whether the original source code is available.

Can you add alerts or connect the script to my broker?

Yes. We set up TradingView alerts, and we can send them as webhooks to a bridge that places orders with your broker. The automation and bridge add to the scope, so they are priced with the rest of the project. See TradingView vs MetaTrader for how that connection works.
