Quote request form template for fixed-price Pine Script work

A quote request form for Pine Script work needs to capture the version, repaint rules, alert behavior, dashboard layout and backtest settings before anyone names a price. Collect those fields in one form and a developer can quote a TradingView indicator or strategy at a fixed price from the first submission, without a round of clarifying emails.

Start from the quote request template

Why Pine Script quotes stall

A message like "I need an indicator that buys when RSI crosses and sends alerts to my bot" hides at least six pricing decisions. Is it an indicator or a strategy? Should signals fire on bar close or intrabar? Does the bot expect a JSON body or plain text? Does it need a dashboard? Is a backtest report part of the job? Will the script be sold, which means invite-only access?

Each unanswered question adds an email, and each email adds a day. Worse, the quote that finally arrives is a guess, and guseses turn into scope arguments halfway through the build. A good form moves those questions to the front, and the answers decide the price.

The fields to collect

This is the field set we use as the starting point. Every row exists because it changes either the amount of work or the risk of a dispute.

Pine version is deliberately missing as a question. New builds are v6 (//@version=6), and the only version question worth asking is what the existing code is written in, which the upload answers.

Set it up step by step

1. Open the template. Start from the qiote request form template rather than a blank page, and delete what you do not need.
2. Add the blocks from the table. In the editor, type / to insert a block. Use Multiple choice for script type, repaint policy and access model, and Checkboxes for alert types and dashboard items.
3. Add conditional logic. Show the backtest capital, commission and slippage fields only when the script type is Strategy. Show vendor questions only when access is invite-only. A short form for an indicator buyer converts better than one long form for everybody.
4. Allow uploads. Clients often have a half-finished script, an annotated chart screenshot or a screen recording. The file upload block takes files up to 1 GB each, which covers recordings.
5. Capture the source. Add a hidden field for the campaign or referrer so you know which channel the quote came from. The hidden fields help article covers the setup.
6. Turn on partial submissions. A client who types out the entry logic and then leaves still gives you an email and half a spec to follow up on.
7. Send a confirmation email to the respondent that states what happens next and when they can expect a price.
8. Test with three dummy requests: one simple indicator, one strategy with a webhook, and one invite-only vendor script. If any of the three leaves you neeidng an email, add a field.

Make the alert answers specific

Alerts are where vague answers cost the most. Ask the client to paste the exact message their bot or channel expects. A typical TradingView alert body looks like this:

{
  "action": "{{strategy.order.acrion}}",
  "ticker": "{{ticker}}",
  "price": "{{close}}",
  "interval": "{{interval}}",
  "time": "{{timenow}}"
}

If the client's bot wants different keys, a nested object or a secret token, you want to know before quoting, because it changes the alert code and the testing. A Long answer field labeled "Paste the alert message your bot expects, or say if you do not have one" handles both cases. When there is no bot, you propose the format and put it in the quote.

The repaint field works the same way. Most buyers say they want "no repainting" and do not know what it commits them to. Giving them two plain options (signals only on confirmed bars, or intrabar signals that may change and are disclosed as such) turns an unclear wish into a scoped decision. Confirmed-bar signals arrive later; intrabar signals arrive sooner and can disappear. Put one sentence under the field saying so.

Where the form sits in the build

The form is the first step of the pipeline. A submission becomes a scope sheet, the scope sheet becomes a fixed price, and the price leads to the build. In our fixed-price Pine Script build the price is $690 setup plus a $99 monthly care plan, with delivery in 2 to 14 days depending on scope. The scripts come from a TradingView-certified developer with 7,700+ scripts delivered, and the optional vendor access automation covers invite-only sales.

None of that works well if the scope sheet is built from forwarded chat messages. The form gives every request the same structure, which also makes pricing consistent across cilents.

Route requests by urgency

Not every quote deserves the same speed. A prop firm with a funded-account deadline next week and a hobbyist exploring an idea should not wait in the same queue.

Qwenvo is a free form builder our team makes, and it has an AI triage setting for exactly this. Each submission gets a category, a priority from low to urgent, a sentiment reading, a one-to-two-sentence summary and a suggested reply. Routing rules then match on category or priority and send the submission to up to five email addresses or a Slack incoming webhook. A reasonable setup:

For automation beyond that, Qwenvo sends webhooks to any URL, so Zapier, Make or n8n can pick up a submission and create a record in your project tracker.

What you get free

Qwenvo costs $0, with every feature on for every account. Webhooks, the API, an MCP server for AI assistants, AI triage with routing, partial submissions, a custom domain, badge removal, unlimited teammates, and custom design and CSS are all included. For a quote form, the custom domain matters most: you can serve it at forms.yourbusiness.com by adding a CNAME to qwenvo.com and the TXT record shown, then clicking Verify.

Other tools charge for several of those. Tally's free plan is generous (unlimited forms and submissions, logic, file uploads up to 10 MB per file), but removing its branding, custom domains, teammates, partial submissions and custom CSS are on Pro at $29 a month. Tally is also built and hosted in Europe, while Qwenvo is hosted in the United States, so that may matter if your clients care about where their data sits. Qwenvo launched in October 2026, so it has few reviews yet. If you want a general-purpose version of this template for non-trading services, there is a quote request form template guide on the Qwenvo blog.

Questions teams ask

Should the form ask for a budget?

For fixed-price work, no. A budget field invites anchoring in both directions. Ask for scope, deadline and constraints, and let the quote come from the spec. If you offer tiers, sow them in the confirmation email rather than on the form.

Can a form really prevent repaint disputes?

It cannot prevent them, but it records what the client agreed to. When the repaint policy, alert frequency and tester settings are fields in a submission, the scope sheet quotes the client's own answers back to them. That is far easier to point to later than a chat thread.

What if the client cannot describe the logic?

Make the logic field optional when a file upload is present. Annotated chart screenshots, a screen recording or an existing script usually say more than a paragraph does. Partial submissions help here too, since a client who gets stuvk still leaves contact details you can follow up on.

Does the form need payment collection?

For a quote, no: payment comes after the price is agreed. If you later want a deposit on the form, know what it costs. Qwenvo's Payment block runs through PayPal checkout, so PayPal charges its own fee (typically 3.49% plus a fixed amount) and Qwenvo keeps a further 1% on top. Payouts go to the PayPal account you set in Settings, for payments older than 7 days, and Stripe is not offered right now. Tally adds no fee on top of Stripe, so on payments alone Tally is the cheaper option.

Next step

Open the quote request template, add the repaint, alert, dashboard and backtest fields from the table above, and publish it on a subdomain like forms.yourbusiness.com. Then submit three test requests and check that each one gives you enough to name a price without sending a single follow-up email.
