• {{interval}} - returns the interval (i.e. timeframe/resolution) of the chart that the alert is created on

• {{strategy.position_size}} - returns the value of the same keyword in Pine, i.e., the size of the current position.

• {{strategy.order.action}} - returns the string “buy” or “sell” for the executed order.

• {{strategy.order.contracts}} - returns the number of contracts of the executed order.

• {{strategy.order.price}} - returns the price at which the order was executed.

• {{strategy.order.comment}} - returns the comment of the executed order (the string used in the comment parameter in one of the function calls generating orders: strategy.entry, strategy.exit or strategy.order). If no comment is specified, then the value of strategy.order.id will be used.

• {{strategy.order.alert_message}} - returns the value of the alert_message parameter which can be used in the strategy's Pine code when calling one of the functions used to place orders: strategy.entry, strategy.exit or strategy.order. This feature is only supported in Pine v4 and higher.
