I'm thinking of switching from Sierra Chart to Tradingview. SC is a great platform but I don't need all the options, just price and volume, trendlines and maybe an indicator that shows yesterdays high and low. I make 1 to 3 trades a day, no scalping.
For those of you using or have tried Tradingview, what do you think of the platform?
Can you pick your data service or is it integrated like ToS?
Thanks
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
You can add data for an extra small fee. It is Level 1 CQG data (CME bundle is $5).
The platform is great, especially if you trade long term. The learning curve is low compared to Sierra.
Volume data is not tick by tick but still quite precise overall. They have volume profile, vwap and tons of other tools. If you don't need Level 2 you should be fine.
You can trial it for 30 days then decide if you like it. If you decide to subscribe, don't purchase a yearly subscription immediately. Buy it during the 2 weeks of Black Friday as there are huge discounts (50-60%).
Looks like they changed the subscription. When I sign up for the 30 free trial it makes me put in my CC and lists the yearly $155 option only. Maybe I can cancel the yearly before it starts and change it to monthly.

Can someone post a screenshot of the tradingview DOM? I'd like to compare with Sierra.

Yes, cancel it 1-2 days before the trial ends and then you can choose the monthly subscription.
There is a chance that you will get some discount offer immediately. If not, the Black Friday deal is still the best.

For me it looks more like a toy and not like a tool
Why not execute trades through TV? I'm not going to use the DOM, just chart trading.
Thanks

It can be slow, at least for my trading style. If you don't scalp, you might be ok with it.

Trading view is great on your phone and for the trading you mentioned should be good on a desktop. But sierra chart is a fantastic trading platform and charting package with great flexibility.
Sierra chart number one for me but trading view also very nice
