# Paid 3rd Party Connector

{% hint style="warning" %}
Please see the [Automatic Trading page](/luxsignals/focus/automatic-trading.md) first before reading this page.
{% endhint %}

### Step 1: Pick a Connector

You can do your own research, but we have listed some of our trusted connectors on the  [Automatic Trading page](/luxsignals/focus/automatic-trading.md).

***

### Step 2: Follow the instructions from your connector.

Sign up with your connector, and **follow their setup instructions on their website.** They’ll guide you from here and how you need to setup the strategy alerts. 

For Tradeadapter we even have this [YouTube playlist](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDotLqi2H_c\&list=PLOfqzJDSpISI3QYquvaPy5CTLn1FN2ldL).

## Important note on Alert Messages with 3rd party connectors

If you have no idea about Alerts, you will find out once you follow your Connector's instructions.

Depending on the Connector, they will require different alert messages or they might have different setups. Just keep this in mind for LuxSignals:

1. LuxSignals is a Pine Script Strategy. So you will have to insert things like "{{strategy.order.contracts}}" in the alert's message - but your connector will provide more information on that.
2. To create the alerts you can learn the basics [on the Signal Alerts page.](/luxsignals/focus/live-signal-alerts.md)
