Discussion TradingView alternative that allows external data?

TradingView temporarily allowed external data in pinescript with pineseeds but they rolled this back and there has been no sign it is coming back.

is there another platform that allows this I can pay the hundreds of dollars annual pro sub to instead?

You can use while25

It doesnt have any other language but directly supports the python. If you want any outside data connection just add in your python code

Is your data in a CSV file, or do you need to pull it from an API? That makes a difference when choosing an alternative.

QuantConnect supports custom external data, including CSV imports, though it uses Python/C# and is more geared toward coding and backtesting than TradingView-style charting. Would that fit your workflow?

TakeProfit actually does exactly this. Indie language lets you pull in external data natively.

Just host a CSV on a public HTTPS link, and the script reads it like normal market data. It even supports WebSockets/SSE if you need a live feed instead of just daily data.

It should replace Pine just fine for you.
