What are the different registration plans?

The Tradingview offers 4 different packages including basic which is automatically selected for new users who are not yet on any plan, the other 3 packages are offered on 2 different types of durations which are annually and monthly

  • Basic
  • Pro
  • Pro+
  • Premium

  • Basic

This plan is a plan that is automatically added to a new user who has not made any form of payment for loan upgrade and is yet to do so, the basic plan comes with lots of limitations one of which I find the most disturbing to be the ads that pop up on the chart while doing analysis

Pro

The Pro Plan is the least plan offered by the TradingView Platform on 2 different time durations, For monthly the charges are 14.95 USD per month while the annual pro plan comes with a 155USD. The benefits of using the pro plan include

  • Access to customer support
  • Ads Free chart
  • Social forum
  • Up to 5 chart per indicator
    Source

PRO+

The pro plus is more or less an upgrade from the pro feature which comes with a monthly subscription charge of 29.95$ and an annual subscription of 299$, but the main advantage personally here is the added number of devices you can have the chart on multiple devices running concurrently. the main benefits of theis package are

  • 10 indicators per chart
  • 4 charts in one layout
  • 100 server-side alerts
  • 2 devices at the same time
  • Indicators on indicators
    Source

Premium

This is the highest package the TradingView platform has to offer and it comes with all the features included and even has up to 5 devices allowed to run concurrently at the same time, it comes with a monthly subscription fee of 59.95$ while an annual subscription fee of 599$. The Premium class has all-inclusive features some of which are

  • 25 indicators per chart

The chart is one of the most prominent and most used features of the Tradingview website, here one gets to keep up with all the price movements do analysis and gets to choose from among the vast range and varieties of indicators in the platform. The chart feature helps traders to carry out analysis on assets and predict the future movement of assets on the chart, below is a typical example of a chart

MARKET

In the market feature, one gets to see prices and an overview of varieties of assets in a broader and simplified view, unlike in the traditional crypto market where one gets to buy and sell in a crypto market here one gets to keep up or intrack with the current prices of assets ranging from crypto to forex, etc.

SCREENER

They are currently 3 different screeners Forex, Crypto, and Stock screener. This feature enables a user to quickly and easily without wasting time to sort through each asset individually to look for one that meets one's specification. In a nutshell, Screeners are tools that enable a trader to sort through lots of assets that meet some of his specifications in a very convenient way

To personalize your chart they are many chart options available on tradingView platform some of which are

  • Candle

Personally, I enjoy the candles stick chart cause it displays the market opening and closing. After you have selected your preferred type of chart next select an indicator you are most comfortable and familiar with which in my own case is Bolinger bands with the default setting and you can do so by simply clicking the indicator button on the top of the chart and adding your preferred indicator

  • Step 3

Adding tools
Items found on the most left corner of the tradingView are referred to as tools and they are meant to be used to simplify or ease our understanding of chart and trading analysis
Here I will be making use of the text tool and the Brush Highlighter tool and adding them to my chart for reference and easier understanding of the chart as indicated below

Finally how to edit customize a chart to one's taste which can be done by clicking the setting icon on the top right corner of the chart. In this tab all sorts of colours can be chosen for mine I like to leave it at the dafualt settings cause its usually the customary colours used

What is your favorite indicator and why?

The Bollinger Band
Bollinger band is an indicator created by a technical analyst John Bollinger in the 1980s, it uses a moving average that is usually placed in between 2(two) standard deviations which fluctuate according to markets volatility with time and has three notable lines upper band, SMA and lower band..The Bollinger band gives a trader an overview of the market volatility in just a glance if the bands are close or squeezed it indicates high support and resistance which in turn sends trading signals while if the bands are widely apart it indicates high volatility.* In a nutshell the I prefer the Bolingerband because it displays crucial information like volatility at a glance which can help a trader determine trends hence minimize loss
