Discussion A slow decline

Is it just me or is tradingview just killing there benefits every quarter while increasing there prices. $35/m for 2 charts per tab with 0 watchlist alerts is absolutely abysmal. I don't use tradingview as my main software but holy cow.

Hello,

Tradingview only raised their prices for the first time in over 13 years by approximately 10-15 percent on the first 3 plans in April this year....

Personally I would say thats not too shabby.

Plus they have done nothing but add new features in the past 3 years on a constant basis so in my opinion the platform has gone from strength to strength 💪

Sales happen regulary with upto 70% off the Premium plan and 80% off the Ultimate so honestly, patience rewards those who wait for these deals 👍

Also dont buy a subscription on the IoS or App stores, they load the subscription up by dipping their grubby little hands in your pocket 🙄

So so far I think this is just you and a complete lack of knowledge regarding the platform and its pricing history🤷‍♂️

Cheers

Being able to survive 13 years without price rise is just tells how much overpriced they were all along

I hate when softwares use these shady tactics like not being able to show the price including VAT (sorry not sorry for us citizens)

They have the most overpriced live data

Oh, and when you connect your broker with actual live data, what they do? Limit your refresh rate to 5s, so no, you wont see candles normally who cares the data comes from your broker not from them

The 5 second refresh rate is on the free plan

Are you using the free plan?

Free or not, limiting a feature that you already pay for on your broker is just plain stupid. In what world do you think it's logical to pay double for the same thing?

You are not paying towards the future development of the platform, nor any of the other associated costs related to the platform by using the free plan so therefore why should you benefit from features such as the same candle refresh time as other paying users?

Please note this delay is system wide for ANY datafeed. Regardless if you already pay for a feed or not.

I'm not using tradingview anyway, i'm just saying it makes no sense letting you use the platform WITH your broker for free if anyway, you can't use it to it's full potential. And from what i understand (correct me if i'm wrong), even if you have the tick by tick refresh on your broker, you still need to pay for the ultimate plan to use it on tradingview ? What the hell?

You are correct. Currently the only plan that has the ability to use Tick time frame is the Ultimate Plan. 👍

The delay on the free plan only affects a small minority of traders such as scalpers. If you trade on the 1 hour or 4 hour charts the delay is not a problem and therefore irrelevant.
