TradingView: Track All Markets Reviews

by @ztezv

I was automatically billed For $60 after my first free month ended and I was cool with it but I was paying way to much so I cancelled my subscription for $60 a month and went to the basic, my account even says basic and I took all my payment information off because I wasn’t using it. After canceling my subscription a week later I decided to use it and I went to replay mode and I couldn’t use that feature because of course that’s for paid members and I was okay with that, so WHY did I just get charged $60 again when I don’t even have the subscription and my payment info is not on there? I’m so furious right now because I have bills to pay for. And Everytime I try to contact Trading view, there’s no number nor email. Which is in called for. I need a refund. I don’t even know how did I get billed without even being subscribed. AND WHY DO I HAVE TO PAY EXTRA FOR CUSTOMERS SERVICE??? Like why would you as a company make people pay for there problems to get solved ???

It’s been three full weeks since iOS 15 was officially out and TradingView has this loading issue ever since. When you you guy plan to solve the issue? I’m paying the premium member every month and TradingView is literally not usable since last month… I may file a refund claim since I’m paying for a defect product which I can’t rven use………Just to update. I was lucky enough to get the reply from the company, but they said it’s the problem from the Safari end…. We’ll, TradingView on Safari works fine. It’s the phone end, that’s not loading the charts… it’s been more than two full weeks and we can’t see the charts at all, then what’s the point of using a stock app if it can’t load stocks… Like a lot of people have discussed, when are you guys going to fix the bug on the compatibility issue with iOS 15? Can’t even open the chart now… I’ll still give you guys 3 starts since this is TradingView that I had been used the most even though it’s not usable now…

I can’t even figure out how to get the alert log to show me today’s alerts instead of last year’s. (And, yes, changing the sort order doesn’t help. As far as TradingView is concerned there has been no alerts since last summer.) Not sure what all those people who gave it 5* are using it for. Unusable for keeping track of what I need to buy or sell today. I wish I had thought to test this before I left my house without my laptop. I need to know what alerts went off today! I guess all I can do is pray that none of my stocks with against me before I’m back in front of my laptop at market open tomorrow morning.

UPDATE: days later and I still can’t figure out how to get TradingView to show me the log of any alerts later than 3 months ago.

Frustrating and a useless waste of my time, not possible to trade without being able to review today’s alerts. What a joke. 15 minutes to the close of session and instead of getting my trades in, I’m sitting here wasting time leaving an angry review.

Have been a paying subscriber to this app for years. It has been the best and easiest way to pull up my favorite charts with preferred settings, indicators, and drawing tools SYNCED across all desktop, tablet, and phone screens. However, The latest update looses connection often. Widgets that used to take a few seconds to sync now won’t sync unless I screw around with TradingView first. TradingView itself freezes a few times daily, and needs to be restarted to update quotes. It’s not reliable for me at this point, and I am researching alternatives. This is too buggy for a paid service. (iPhone 12 pro, IOS 15.1.1, TV 2.36.1 build 659)

Edit: Thanks for the quick response, and it’s great to know that the team is doing everything possible to deal with Apple’s iOS changes. this app is still the best option for me, and I gladly renewed my subscription at Black Friday prices. Hopefully, the issues will be resolved soon. Thanks again for a great overall product!

I’ve used this app since before Covid crash. I’ve seen multiple iterations. Desktop version of this app is perfect.

Mobile this app, on the other hand, has steadily worsened every few iterations due to non intuitive user interface and constantly changing interface that makes memorization challenging.

Most important, the charts tab, top 3 feature if not most important feature, feels like a project a freshman computer science major made. Resuming app from background will sometimes cause chart tab to freeze; changing ticker, time frame, anything will do nothing. I am FORCED to restart TradingView . Some changes, like to a technical indicator, are presumably saved but turn out not saved when reentering TradingView . Other times, things like changing timeframe of chart, while never putting app in background, will freeze the chart until the end of time. Once again, I am FORCED to restart TradingView .

I use this app daily. It’s 7:15 am writing TradingView, and I’ve needed to restart TradingView twice already due to programmers who probably don’t understand concurrency.

Charts tab wasn’t always like this. Reliability was great back then. Now, whether it’s ios13 or whatever, this tab is genuinely bad. I don’t look forward to using TradingView and would rather use desktop.

Hire talent from Silicon Valley, fire your intern, idk. Just fix TradingView

by Stashamarie2014

Impossible to reach anyone for support so my only option is to leave a bad review. I wanted to try TradingView to see if I would like it. The basic plan hardly allows someone to do anything productive when you are actively trading and watching various coins at the same time. So I read I could upgrade to Pro for free for 30 days. The next day I was Charged about $180. I still have 3 weeks left of a free trial to see if TradingView can do allI need it to do on a daily basis and am in a FREE trial. I was duped into paying when it said I wouldn't be charged unless I did not cancel at the end of the free trial I have been trying for 2 days to reach someone. I opened a ticket as suggested by their automated email and phone message but it was never answered. I contacted PayPal and they denied my refund within an hour or so because they stated they contacted the merchant who said i didn't cancel my subscription before being charged??? That doesn't even make sense. I'm on my first week of a 30 day free trial so why would I cancel when I still have 3 weeks to try it out?? I love how Paypal gets a response within an hour but I try for 2 days and NOTHING.

I enjoy using the charting system but please fix the issue of setting alerts on rays and line while using mobile. On iOS TradingView will bug out and only half the screen will show after you enter in a description for your alert. If you try and go back and put a second alert (such as with an entry alert and a stop signal) then TradingView will most likely freeze and close out upon even opening up the edit alert on the second ray. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS! Also, an add on feature to add tickers to a watchlist straight from the chart feature or add (plus sign option) would help users create watchlists on the go. This would be much appreciated. A drop down check off menu, similar to what is offered on the desktop version is what comes to mind. Other than that I enjoy using TradingView but please fix the alerting system on mobile and consider a more seamless watchlist creation function.

by Nani@327

I have been using TradingView as a subscribed user for over 3 years. It has been a great experience and really loved TradingView . But lately some of the new features are not user friendly. For example, the most recent “quick preview on the watchlist” feature makes the whole user experience horrible and terrible when navigating from chart to chart. It is so horrible that it actually made me search for other similar service providers. The whole purpose of the Mobile app is to navigate between charts seamlessly. For some reason, they are moving away from this by trying to pack way too many things into the mobile app. Suggestion to this app: Less is more. And in case if you keep adding such features, at least give the subscribers the ability to customize. Thank you.

by Jtduff

I’ve had a paid subscription for the last two months and I love it. There are two improvements that I can think of that would make this a five star review. First of all provide pre-market charts for all stocks. Currently, there are many stocks that have pre-market volume that this app does not provide a chart of. It’s a little frustrating to not know what’s happening with the stock premarket until after it opens. Honestly I’m not sure if there’s a threshold that a stock needs to hit before pre-market data is provided. My second improvement would be to be able to tell what an indicator does regardless of what it is called by the creator of it. Many times you can get an indicator and then forget exactly what is being quantified unless you look up the exact name of the indicator again and get a full explanation this seems a little cumbersome when you really just want to know what that indicator is doing. I guess I’m a bit spoiled from the abundance of indicators available and perhaps I should be happy with what I’ve got. Lol. Enough said I am enjoying my subscription and hope to see these improvements in the future. Thanks this app!

Just like the website TradingView is basically an open-source trading tool. It has a ton of features, but you have to pay to unlock most of them. It offers a 31-day free trial of any level, so if you are interested might as well get the highest one for the trial and see what features you don’t use, then choose the plan fits your needs.

DEVS: I rated this 4 stars because while it does have a lot of information, to some people maybe too much, but that aside I find that when using the Full-Featured Charts on mobile there is too much sensitivity on the screen presses and the whole zoom feature, how each part of the chart can be adjusted separately, it is useful but easy to get lost in and there should be a reset button. Also, just because I rated it 4 stars doesn’t mean it doesn’t deserve 5. Maybe I am just not that used to using it yet.

by Xgregious

I don’t often write reviews, but when I do, I am at my wits end. So, I spent a very unproductive 3 hours attempting to explore this application. They do have a robust community of talented technical analysts, so I will give them that.

The main reason that I downloaded TradingView was to check out the charting features. After about oh... 5 minutes, strange things started to happen. My indicators had disappeared, and despite my great efforts, I could not get them to return. But it gets worse: There is no way to close the chart, or reset the chart, or erase the chart. Once it gets buggy, you are cursed forever and ever until the end of time. I finally uninstalled TradingView , rebooted, reinstalled, and it was still broken. The support section is worthless, and the company makes it very clear with bold red letters that they are TOO BUSY to tend to support tickets.

By the end of my time with TradingView , I couldn’t get ANY indicators to display. Okay, if the developers come back and say “ohhh that’s because it’s just a trial”, my response would be “a message stating why the charts start glitching, and the indicators stop working would be rather helpful” ...and if that is the case, that is the *shortest* trial that I have ever seen.

Game over - I’ll be checking out the competition.

These charts are great compared to some of the other charts/charting tools I’ve tried. Depending on your subscription level, you can add several indicators to a chart. You can add alerts to these indicators, such as a trend line. This works great and nearly the same whether you’re on a your PC or mobile phone. It saves your chart markups whether you make them on your PC or in the mobile app. For example, you can research charts while waiting to pick your kids up from school then go home and see the chart changes at home on your PC. The beauty of cloud based charting!!

The negative with this product is the subscription price and different tiers. Depending on your plan, you can only set “X” number of alerts. Of course, I find myself needing more alerts but can’t afford to pay for the upgrade to the next tier.

With all that said, this is a GREAT tool and the best charting tool I’ve seen so far.

by Paulsl45

I did the promotion join at a discount at first then they tried to charge my papal $600 for this incomplete program that has no options or futures trading. I don’t think so, you can’t do option or futures on trading view and they want to charge you $600 a year for WHAT? I used TradingViews paper money to help some friends get use to navigating a trading platform. But without options & futures this program is just a toy. And a very expensive toy at $600 for a premium yearly subscription. After their attempt at taking $600 from my PayPal I’ve canceled my subscription. I don’t like people who do sneaky payments that aren’t authorized. Check your payment setup to make sure they can’t automatically charge you more that you originally agreed on. Value for money I gave it a 1 star for what they what to charge!

When I was beginning to learn Forex, I didn’t want to jump onto to something new which means I had to learn something new on top of all the stuff I was learning about Forex. My brain was overwhelmed! But when I got onto this wonderful site, I was able to apply all that I had learned about Forex onto my charts! At that moment I was like how crazy was I to be hesitant to add this to my Forex journey! this app is the best thing that I have come across in my life to aid in my financial journey from broke to financially stable! Don’t be hesitant like I was. You’re able to apply all indicators needed to help you forecast the market. This is truly a way to win! Thanks to the creators of this app to help guide me on my way to becoming a consistently profitable trader!

by Allsop207

I’m truly impressed that this app has been able to successfully port the web version of their platform to mobile. It’s already a very complex platform as is, and it works so well on Windows or OSX. To see it perform nearly identically on my iPhone is pretty incredible. I cannot imagine the effort from developers that went in to making this work right. Turn your phone sideways and it’s almost just as powerful as the web version. Also the alerts you can set on the web version are pushed to TradingView , meaning notifications on your phone when prices or indicators change.

It’s honestly made me a lot of money trading. The lower tier paid packages are worth it in my opinion. The free tier is just as powerful but with only a few limitations. I just wish there were some testing features for the alerts so I can verify they are set up right, and that I could have it send me a text or even a robo phone call when my alerts are triggered. That may already exist though, and I may have missed that feature. I learn new features all the time.

by TonyG1023

App is smooth and intuitive. Fast and pretty accurate. I don’t see news relating to my stocks. Would love an easy way to view that on iPhone and iPad. Also the ability to create sections on mobile is really needed. Not sure how else to do it. Also split view on iPad is needed ASAP please. Most active stocks and gainers and losers are really needing a section in TradingView . Also an overview of a stock like it is on desktop would really help. Having to go into the chart to see financials and things like that could be placed better instead of separating them with the ideas. I like the new news tab but we also need news relevant to our watchlist stocks. I think I’m the preview we should be able to swipe up more to see the financials and the whole overview of the stock it would be PERFECT that way and take out the financials tab when we are in the chart view. Other than that everything is looking good. Keep up the good work!

by Maseythageek

Spent a hour trying to make a chart and provide relevant information only to lose everything i worked on when TradingView wouldn’t let me post…. Why cant i post?? because my language wasnt set…. Seems like a glitch bc i was able to post before and after with no issues… please make TradingView a bit more easier to use. I dont like spending hours making a chart to get rep points only to lose everything after the apps issues…. Also why do you need rep points just to join a chat?…. Seems like the chats and TradingView is also full of scamming so whats the point??? i dont know why it kept asking me to change language when i only speak and write in English .. i lost my best work i made and I couldn’t even save it… still will use TradingView but hope it gets better before something else comes out

by Krp9

I had a previous 1 star review because of the update and listed what was wrong and you guys actually took the time and listened and went as far as sending that information to the developers and you guys actually fixed the exact problems I stated. You guys deserve the 5 star. I still loved you guys before even when i gave the 1 star (that was only because of that specific update) but now I probably just have to marry you guys. I would go as far as wearing a this app t-shirt to promote your business if you ever want to send me one (haha). Thanks for listening to your customers. Much love, much charting. I’ll have to upgrade my account from pro to premium now after this.

by Sabjo182

Try the free trial, and you’ll see it’s 100% Worth the upgrade. I’ve been trading a couple years and wanted to increase volume and prediction accuracy, and this delivers!! Really solid and help me stick to my plan, with so many indicators like ZScore and ichimoku alerts!! Just what I needed. I made about $2k ROI in under 24 hours of having TradingView with the crypto trading charts. They have every crypto pair imaginable with their smart and instant quotes populate from all the major exchanges. So f’ing cool. Great job Trading view!! I can see how much time I’m going to save now too, probably hours each day, as I now have tools to enhance my intuition. I’ll probably be going with the premium pro plan ultimately (middle tier with 20 indicators per chart) but I made that much money in one day with the basic pro free trial. Unbelievable. This is def a real review. BOOM 🤯💣💥🔥

by DMV Joni

Remove the captcha for a 5 star review! I can no longer access indicators on the IOS app because I can’t bypass the ridiculous captcha. I paid for a pro membership. Why is a captcha needed to access the description of every indicator? Waste of time and money as I can no longer work efficiently using TradingView.

Update: Tradeview quickly contacted me with instructions to submit additional info via the help center. Interestingly enough as I was taking screenshots of the problem to submit with the ticket, I clicked into the function option and attempted to view the description and the captcha that has been annoying me for weeks was gone. Hopefully forever! Thank you, Tradeview for your quick response. As promised I’ve updated my review to 5 stars.

by Tklake

Do not add gimmicky holiday snow features to a professional trading app. It was a terrible idea. You might as well have put a fart button next to the watchlist that is how much of a step back this choice was. As others have said the snow doesn’t stay off and it was only interesting for a moment before searching how to disable it. Screen space is already limited on a phone anyway.

Editing lock button needs to be hidden away in settings and stay on/off even after closing TradingView . Many times I have scrolled the chart only to have moved a drawing by accident. Most serious traders edit their charts on desktop and monitor trades on the phone while they are away. There’s less often a reason to draw on the phone app. In place of the lock button should be the hide/show drawings button. This single button to display a clean chart would be a huge benefit for TradingView and I’m surprised it isn’t already there.

Keeps trying to change my charts from dark mode to light and I’ve never used light mode on any device ever.

Time interval changing would be better as it was before without a pop up screen.

People are not satisfied with TradingView and after a bad review is posted a vague 5 star rating pops up. A new developer with fresh ideas of how TradingView is supposed to look and work should be considered by this app.

by Savvv12123

I’ve been using trading view for a few years now and I was pretty excited to see an iPad app. Unfortunately there wasn’t enough thought put into the design of this to make it a replacement for the web browser version.

1. The list of instruments on a separate tab is so painful... you have to toggle back and forth and its really disruptive to your flow. Also no ability to sort your watchlist by name, %gain/loss, or anything else? That’s not good.

2. There is no total % gain/loss on the chart... it shows it at the top but its relative to the timeframe you have, which is crazy. Show me the % gain loss for the day like you do on the browser version... that’s a no brainer

3. No favorites on your drawing tools. That means I have to click three times to get a trend line... that’s again a terrible design choice

4. Timeframe selector across the top of the screen, making it as hard as possible to reach it with your fingers and again requiring multiple clicks to get what you want. Here’s how that should work. Near the bottom left of the screen I should be able to press and hold to show me all my timeframes, then slide and release to select the one I want.

All in all, almost isn’t good enough here. this app needs to spend more time thinking about use cases and design ergonomics.

by Christians Colon

TradingView is very frustrating. I just want to be able to hide my drawing tools & indicators without having to delete them entirely. This feature is already native on the desktop version. I don’t see why it can’t just be added. Additionally I think you guys should make it easier to switch through custom chart layouts. I just want to apply my custom indicator settings to the current currency pair without having to switch to the currency pair that’s saved on the layout. My last complaint is with regards to the iPhone X version of TradingView . When TradingView is in landscape mode, there is a lot of space that’s not utilized at the bottom of the screen. If these issues were fixed, I’d rate TradingView five stars.

by Fxlife

I've been using this app PRO+ for years on desktop. It’s hands down the best charting platform. The mobile version obviously isn’t as good as the desktop version, but it’s still great for analyzing financial instruments on the go. My only major complaint is that there’s nowhere on TradingView where I can see all of my alerts (whether I set them on desktop or mobile). This is annoying if you create a lot of alerts, because you have to go on desktop to see and edit them all in one place. The alerts log isn’t enough, because it only shows triggered alerts set on mobile. If this is improved I’ll rerate TradingView 5 stars

by Wario954

Trading View is amazing. TradingView is good also but it could be a lot better. Simple options and features are missing. I have the premium version but I can’t access some of those features on TradingView . The addition of alerts is great but I am only able to edit alerts or add them through trend lines. I just want to be able to view them as I do on the website. The main feature I do not see is the stock screener which is one of the main reasons I use trading view. Also I did not see a way to contact the developer through TradingView to ask questions or request features.

by Wweirudhdj

I find myself using the browser more than TradingView for a couple of reasons.

Maybe I am missing something but I can’t seem to edit indicator settings in TradingView .

Something is going on with sync that causes TradingView to take priority over changes made in the browser. Unless I remember to completely close TradingView and re-open all the changes I made in the browser get erased. Open app > switch to other app in background > open in browser > make changes to charts/watch lists > save > open app again > everything gone > open browser > everything gone

by Smicdric

this app is an amazing resource for traders and investors of every level. There is no other product currently offered that is easier to use and as smooth and responsive as TV’s web browser experience. The mobile app is a welcome and handy offshoot, yet leaves out some of the amazing features that makes TV my go-to charting application. The main omission is the lack of sortable watchlists. This simple feature would be of great use to me and its quite mind-boggling that it is not yet implemented in TradingView. Anything the developers can do to make TradingView more like the browser experience is a win in my book. Cheers to the team and keep it up!

by Will Easton

Love TV! Great iOS app, clean interface to put all the important tools right at your fingertips. Only major request to make this a “5 Star” app is adding the “Edit Gear” button next to the indicator title (by the “X” button to close the indicator, just like on the web app). Sometimes double-tapping an indicator doesn’t work properly, this would make things fool proof. Other wishlist items: photo button saves photo to album (instead of just copy link), alternatively gives the option to automatically open link in Safari to manually save the photo. Minimize the lower bar - tons of screen space wasted for 5 buttons (maybe just make those 5 buttons a drop down option like the tools/timeframe/etc). Add split-screen, maybe iPad-only? And finally, Pine editor please!!!

by T -------------

I use your app religiously throughout the day to chart crypto. As of the last update you’ve added a let it snow feature. As I use a black background it is very pronounced and distracting over long periods of watching candles dry. While I find it cute and a nice touch for a short time, I find the need to turn it off nearly as soon as it begins. The issue being that it continually turns itself back on! I have turned off let it snow 15 times in the last 4 days and it will not stay off. Please address its unwillingness to leave my charts alone. Thank you,

by Piano Cea

I love a lot about TradingView and use it daily while away from my computer. A new update came for charts that when you need to change time frame instead of tapping and choosing time frame now you tap opens a new window and then you can choose time frames. Honestly previous version was much much faster to do that. Now I’m doing double work. Please bring it back how was before. I don’t need a new window pops up every time u need to change charts time frame.
I’ll update my review if things will change back again.

by Kyle Augustine

I’ve been using TradingView for 2 years to follow crypto’s, and I wouldn’t use any other app.

I do have one recent complaint that I’m only including in a rate because I can’t find a customer service email to message. Coinbase recently added $XRP to their app, and TradingView did a great job of getting a chart up in a few days. The only problem I have is the ticker doesn’t carry out the decimals far enough, for a coin that trades at less than a dollar, every fraction of a penny counts, but the chart on here only carries out 2 decimals, (ex. .30, .32, .50).

If you could update the chart to carry out another 2 decimals, (ex. .3014, .3234, .5064) that would be amaaazinnnngg!

by PiNKFL0yD

One of the best charting apps and sites on the web... Especially for the cost...

If you’re on the fence, give it a shot... and make SURE that you dig deep into all the features they offer.. The cost is MINIMAL compared to sites/apps like eSignal, etc... and it does pretty muchly everything you need to trade with technical analysis IMHO...

I use TOS and this app to do my scans, and then most of my charting and trade plans are done through this app before I trigger them (to another broker).... the mobile app is great to use while on the go, to create and view alerts, etc...

Again.. the cost is MINIMAL compared to other services/apps/sites.. its definitely worth a trial run and paying for a month to test it out.. Just make sure you give it your time and use it until you check out everything it offers.. I didn’t use it enough when I started trading, and could have saved a fortune testing out other services if I would have just dug deeper into this app..

The site and TradingView simply marry beautifully...

Good luck everyone.. Trading is DEFINITELY not for the faint of heart..

by Abedzaza

The ungratefulness of some users disliking TradingView is self-entitled and quite disappointing to say the least. I mean not only is TradingView offered for FREE, it's also AD FREE! The developer has probably invested tens of thousands of dollars to fine tune it to the near perfection it is today. I've been trading for 11 years and have downloaded and tried tons of apps. this app is by far the greatest.
I ended up saving a huge space on my phone by uninstalling 3 different applications (one for commodity and oil prices, another for forex and currencies are and the third for technical analysis). this app beats the three of them combined. I'm grateful to whoever designed this and offered it FREE to the community. Thank you!!

by TRADINGSMART

What can I say! Amazing app! Lightning fast when changing from one ticker symbol to another! Crisp and clear resolution, the only thing that I would like to see in the future is: indicators that I Hide in the Web Based this app, TradingView does not give me the option to see them, the indicator name shows a little darker, but not a choice to activare and hide them again. I have to delete the indicator and search for it to add it to the chart in order to use it. Just a small add on for a future update!

by Odvisual

This charting app is fast and sleek, what truly is powerful that it mimics pretty much all chart functions of a main web application, including chart markup and annotations, zooming in and out with a pinch (an indispensable feature for any Mac/iPhone user) and multiple watch lists.

There are some areas of improvement that can make it even more usable:
1) Reliable and fast sync between multiple instances: for example, if annotation is added in the mobile app, often it won’t show up in the web version (even with refresh) and vice versa.
2) Flipping through charts within the watch list: at the time of this review TradingView requires user to go back to the watchlist and select next ticker. In the web version navigation is much easier and more intuitive (with up/down arrows).
3) Among other minor improvements to consider:
* Make iOS app more consistent with web version by adding features like Flagged watch list
* Add support for multiple flags (by color) - use case is basically as a user you’d want to flag tickers based on some different criteria: bullish, bearish, etc.
