Announcing the acquisition of PineTS, welcoming its creator Alaa-eddine to the team, and reaffirming our commitment to building the ultimate open-source and proprietary quantitative trading ecosystem.
Today we are thrilled to announce that LuxAlgo has officially acquired PineTS and welcomed its brilliant creator, Alaa-eddine, to our core engineering team.
For the past several weeks, our combined forces have been working behind the scenes on a massive technological breakthrough. This acquisition gives LuxAlgo a fully sovereign, enterprise-grade compilation engine that decouples financial charting and script execution completely from external platforms.
To put it simply, PineTS is the furthest technological accomplishment ever in bringing TradingView’s Pine Script® language outside of the platform.
The History of PineTS
PineTS was originally created by Alaa-eddine, drawing on his extensive background in architectural leadership and enterprise scale, to build a groundbreaking JavaScript/TypeScript open-source transpiler and runtime environment. It solved a massive problem for quantitative developers: it allowed them to take native TradingView® Pine Script® logic and run it natively in Node.js, a local terminal, or directly inside a web browser with 1:1 syntax compatibility.
Recognizing its raw potential to disrupt the quantitative trading space, we initially jumped on board as an official open-source sponsor of the project in early 2026. However, as we integrated the tech deeper into our long-term R&D pipelines, it became clear that a full acquisition was the natural next step. By bringing Alaa-eddine in-house, we are combining our capital and data infrastructure with his deep compilation expertise to accelerate the development of this engine faster than ever before.
Moving forward, the official home of the open-source project is hosted here: github.com/LuxAlgo/PineTS
LuxAlgo / PineTS
The open-source JavaScript/TypeScript transpiler and runtime environment for TradingView's Pine Script® language.
Quick Start Guide for Developers
Getting started with PineTS on your own local environment is incredibly simple. If you want to use it programmatically in your applications, install it via npm:
npm install pinets
Then, instantiate the runner and pass your native Pine Script code directly as a string:
import { PineTS, Provider } from 'pinets';
const pineTS = new PineTS(Provider.Binance, 'BTCUSDT', '1h', 100);
const pineScript = '//@version=6\nindicator("EMA Cross")\nplot(ta.ema(close, 9), "Fast", color.blue)\nplot(ta.ema(close, 21), "Slow", color.red)';
const { plots } = await pineTS.run(pineScript);
If you prefer to run things right from your terminal without writing any boilerplate project code, use our global CLI wrapper:
npm install -g pinets-cli
pinets run rsi.pine --symbol BTCUSDT --timeframe 60
Dual Development: Building Open Source & Internally
Our vision for PineTS is twofold: we are deeply committed to maintaining its open-source roots while simultaneously building a supercharged, proprietary execution layer for LuxAlgo users.
Keeping it Open Source for the Community
We believe in the power of open-source quantitative development, it is the heart of of LuxAlgo, as seen from our Library – which quickly became the largest collection open-source technical indicators published in history. We will continue to actively maintain, fund, and expand the public PineTS repository on GitHub. The community will still have full, unrestricted access to the open-source transpiler, runtime, and the command-line utility (pinets-cli) to run indicators locally against raw data streams. We want developers everywhere to reliably write, port, and run custom technical analysis on their own local servers.
Upgrading the Engine Internally for LuxAlgo Users
While the core engine remains open source, our internal team is building an advanced, proprietary enterprise layer wrapped directly around it to power the next generation of LuxAlgo applications. By merging PineTS with our native internal engines, we are delivering an elite, optimized environment to our users that focuses on production-grade scale, lightning-fast historical caching, and hyper-responsive real-time data streams that require zero configuration or API keys on the client side.
What's next?
We can now bring independent, hyper-fast Pine Script functionality natively to any environment, device, or database. Whether you are using our open-source repositories on GitHub to power your private setups, or utilizing our premium internal tools, you are running on the most advanced independent quantitative framework in existence.
This acquisition lays the groundwork for a broader paradigm shift. In the coming months, we are going to be launching a series of major features that will completely surprise the broader trading, technical analysis, and retail quant ecosystem.
We are currently building advanced platform capabilities that have never been attempted outside of legacy walled gardens. The boundaries of what you expect from independent charts, customized indicators, and algorithmic logic are about to be entirely redefined, and we cannot wait to show you what is coming next.
Commercial Licensing & Enterprise Use
If your organization is looking to utilize the PineTS compilation engine for proprietary, commercial applications, or custom high-scale infrastructure, we’d love to chat. Please reach out directly to our enterprise team to discuss commercial licensing opportunities.
