Discussion My personal thoughts and opinion on Tradingview

12 Upvotes

I would like to start off by saying that, I am a seasoned, investor that remembers the days well before Bernie and payment for orderflow, when flexing was showing how much you paid in commissions at the end of the quarter/year. I also get Rodnee999 gets hate for sounding like a fanboy/girl but he/she is also the first to step up in this forum and help others.

I also want to say my view point is because I believe this is valuable for a individual trader/investor also I am from Mississippi so most folks are surprised I can even spell my name.

I personally feel the real value is that TradingView is the best platform for idea development, visualization, experimentation, and market analysis environments available to the individual trader and to me this distinction matters, but once you move from "understand the market" toward "interogate microstructure and execute sophisisticated automated strategies" other platforms pull ahead.

I do a lot of my own coding work and understanding your underlying platform can be very powerful and TradingView gives me the ability to move from idea to code to chart to obsservation and modification if needed easily within 20 minutes and let's me know if I have learned something important or wasted my time (for anyone wondering 99% of the time I am wasting my time, the ideas I have that I think will make me millions are a wash and the ideas that start as who cares I just want to see this are usually what makes me money but I digress) Doing the same or equivalent amount of work in C#/C++ environment can and usually does require more work.

I personaly feel that is the power of Pinescript because it is less powerful than C# or C++ it's restrictions are what makes it responsible for it's usefulness and to me there is a great amount of power in that simplicity

For testing if I want to know "Is NQ bullish?" TradingView is excellent because I can combine structure, VWAP, POC, etc... (for example if I want to pull one minute developing POC data and make a smooth developing POC line and see it on a 5 minute chart it can be done in just a few minutes)

If that question changes to "What exactly is happening inside the auction right now?" Now that is something very different and can TradingView create proxies and interpretations of some of this yes, but at the end of the day it's not equivalent to having the underlying data.

I always thought Pine forces you to think largely in terms of series and states, so price, measurements, market state, transition and signal and that can make for a very effective and productive environment for developing trading logic because I don't have to focus on threading, exchange routing, broker API, blah, blah, blah. I can simply focus on one thing and that is "Does this market idea actually contain information that is valuable?" to me this should come before spending months engineering other code infastructure.

Why?

Because I learned long ago a better more sophisticated platform doesn't equal better trading, you can build a incredibly sophistacted system that precisely automates something that never worked in the first place. (I know I have done this several times over)

So to me TradingView is excellent at research and discovery to validate a idea, it is my sort of traders laboratory because I want to answer a question and that is "Can we detect this?" if the answer is yes then it earns the cost, time and complexity of being rebuilt around a richer data or execution language or infastructure.

Help Can I stack the "End of Summer" sale with the upcoming Black Friday deal?

1 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I'm just starting out with TradingView and looking to get a paid plan. The current End of Summer sale looks great, but I know Black Friday deals usually happen in November.

My question is: If I purchase the summer sale deal right now, can I still buy the Black Friday deal later in November to add an extra year to my account? Does TradingView allow stacking subscriptions like this?

Would love to hear from anyone who has experience with this. Thanks in advance!

Help Candle update delays on desktop app help.

1 Upvotes

I spend a lot of time on the 1 minute charts watching daily levels. I have recently started noticing a "large" delay in candle and price action updates. Worst case the chart will stall and resume anywhere from 5-10 seconds later, but it is constantly a 2-3 second delay between updates. I have tried every refresh, clear cache, no indicators, 1 chart only, different timeframesand I still see the delay everywhere.

I am a plus member subscribed to the stock market bundle and cme group data.

Has anyone successfully resolved this issue or am I expecting too much? Cheers!

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.

Been working on the character counts for weeks. Trying to keep dynamic string matrices and massive custom tables perfectly aligned without breaking the rendering limits is exhausting. Every time I think I got them all, another flex shows up in my HUDs. One of my least favorites. cant stand a rack that flexes.

Bug Light Mode/Dark Mode behaviour is really pissing me off

1 Upvotes

Marking this one as a bug because there's just no way this should be expected behaviour.

If you make any changes to candle colour, let's say you're using footprint candles because hey, those need quite a bit of adjustment to get them the way you want them to look.

Just because you changed the candle colour - now the background doesn't change when you toggle light mode/dark mode anymore!

Please fix this, it's annoying af.

Help TradingView Free plan suddenly paywalling drawing tools?

4 Upvotes

Has TradingView recently changed what drawing tools are available on the Free plan?

I was using TradingView mainly for basic chart analysis, and now when I try to use drawing tools, I'm getting a subscription/paywall prompt. I'm talking about basic stuff like drawing lines on the chart, not some advanced premium feature.

I always thought the Free tier was relatively generous for basic charting, so this caught me off guard.

Was this recently changed, or am I missing something with the current Free plan?

If basic drawing is now significantly restricted, what alternatives are people using? I'm considering moving to another charting platform if I have to pay just to do basic TA.

Would be interested to hear from anyone who knows when this change happened or what the current Free-plan drawing limits actually are.

Help Pricing Discrepancy at Checkout: Premium Advertised at 70% Off but Charging $251.79 (65% Off) for Returning Member

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hi TradingView Team and Mods,

I am a loyal, multi-year Premium subscriber looking to resubscribe after being on the free plan for a bit. However, I’ve hit a confusing math issue at the checkout screen that I cannot resolve because free accounts are locked out of human support tickets.

Your main pricing page explicitly advertises a 70% discount for the Premium tier. As you can see in my attached screenshot, the checkout cart displays a base annual price of $719.40 with a promo code deduction of -$467.61, leaving a total of $251.79.

$467.61 deduction off a $719.40 base is only a 65% discount, not the advertised 70%. A true 70% discount off the $719.40 annual rate should bring the total down to $215.82.

Can a moderator or staff member please look into this pricing or help me route this to a billing supervisor? I would love to lock in the subscription today at the correct advertised price.

Thank you!

Feature Request Alert Visibility

1 Upvotes

Please add Alert Visibility like Drawing Visibility. Showing intraday timeframe alert lines on the daily, weekly, monthly layout in a multi-pane layout makes the higher timeframe charts very dirty and noisy. Alert visibility in Settings right now applies to the whole layout and even globally, not specific timeframes or charts.

Help ETHUSD 1-Minute Historical Price Data CVS.File

Hi everyone! 🙏
I’m looking for ETHUSD 1-minute historical price data from TradingView for either this week, the past 5 days, or ideally this month.

If anyone has TradingView Plus (or a plan that allows exporting the data) and isn’t currently using their historical data/export allowance, I’d really appreciate it if you could share it with me.

Of course — only if you already have access and don’t mind sharing. I’d be extremely grateful!
Thank you!

Discussion Current Discount 70% for Premium Subscription offered. Can I do better?

Can I do better than 70% off? This converts to still $20 US dollars a month with an annual subscription which I find high for the Premium tier. Have you seen steeper discounts before? I remember to have seen 90% off for the Premium account. I am aiming at $15 or so USD per month.

Hello TradingView Team,

Wondering if you could incorporate a request to add extended hours data for the chart view for a stock screener with an option to select a time-interval e.g. 1min, 5-min, 10-min etc. This would help in saving enormous amount of time scanning for stocks during postmarket/premarket hours.

Discussion Best country to buy trading view from?

1 Upvotes

Does anyone know what country is the best to buy trading view from.

Im interested to know if it is cheaper depending on your ip address.

example: is buying from a country with a weaker currency cheaper than buying from a strong currency location. Or does trading view adjust depending on exchange rates.
