TradingView is a web-based and mobile-ready platform that brings real-time market data, advanced charting and a social layer together for both beginners and experienced traders. At its core are powerful, interactive charts that let users plot price action across stocks, forex, crypto, futures and more. Charts can be customized with dozens of drawing tools, multiple chart types, timeframes and over a thousand built-in technical indicators to help spot trends, support/resistance and momentum shifts. Beyond charts, TradingView delivers live quotes and heatmaps to track market movers at a glance. A customizable watchlist and alerts system helps monitor symbols and price levels so opportunities aren’t missed; alerts can trigger on price, indicator values or custom conditions. For those who want to test ideas, a strategy tester and backtesting features support evaluating rules against historical data. One standout feature is Pine Script, TradingView’s scripting language that enables users to create custom indicators, strategies and automated visual signals. This makes it easy to share or adapt trading ideas and refine systematic approaches. TradingView also functions as a community hub where traders and investors publish charts, analyses and trading ideas. The social feed and public scripts allow learning from others, seeing different perspectives and discovering fresh setups. Integrated news, economic calendars and market summaries add fundamental context to technical views. The platform supports multiple layouts, multi-timeframe analysis and synchronized crosshair tools for efficient workflow. It can connect with various brokerage services for direct order execution and supports desktop, browser and mobile use for a consistent experience across devices. In short, TradingView combines comprehensive charting, real-time data, custom scripting and a collaborative community to help users analyze markets, develop strategies and make informed trading or investing decisions.
