“Love the platform and the features that AMP has turned on with them. I have also used Tradovate through TradingView and they have certain features turned off which made it hard to use. AMP + TradingView is a great combination.”
“I’ve been using Tradingview for many years, I’ve tried other platforms during that time but I always come back to TV. I like the flexibility of being able to login on multiple devices and I’m always going to see my charts, drawings, etc. I like the community aspect, especially the scripts. I’m not much of an indicator guy but there are thousands if that’s your thing. I also like how easy it is to code in Pinescript, I have developed a few tools there to identify areas where I look for trades.
The downsides are speed of execution, it’s likely not the fastest. There is also a tight limit on old data so it’s not the best for manual backtesting. And while it’s pretty cheap if you are trading time based charts you’re going to have to pay a lot more for tick data, and the non-time based charts really only work with tick level data.
If you’re someone who trades time based charts I think it’s worth a good look. If you’re a DOM scalper or if you’re trading Renko, footprint, volume or range charts you’re probably better off looking at different platforms.”
“I'm using the free version of TradingView with CQG datafeed. It has a major problem. The charting is delayed by up to 5 seconds or more, depending on how fast the market is moving. The P&L has no delay. Only the charting has the delay. I remember when I first starting using it, it mentioed something about the delay, but I haven't seen that warning again....but I experience it all day everyday.”
“Nothing is perfect, so the only negative thing I would say is that sometimes when I use Tradingview on my phone and connect to my broker, and enter a trade. My Take Profit and Stop Loss do not get placed and just disappear when I minimize the app and turn it back on. I am not sure if that is a TradingView Mobile problem or an AMP Futures problem, but the orders seem to disappear. I haven't got burned by this yet, but this is a problem that needs to be fixed.
What I can say needs to be added is bracket orders with the ability to add limit orders inside the bracket orders that get cancelled when the Stop Loss or Take Profit get hit. Something like NinjaTrader.
Otherwise, an overall amazing experience and would recommend Tradingview with AMP Futures to anyone who is taking up trading/charting in general. :)”
