one thing im trying to find out , ive noticed you can use the trendline tool in a way where once you click its first point , it stays in a straight line to the second point you click , even if you move the mouse down and across , on screen it stays straight

[@remyrb888]

Being honest with you, I've been trading for quiet a longtime and I've never used TradingView at its full capacity. I came to this video and Thank you so much for the full explanations, really appreciate your time!!!

[@TradeBrigade]

You bet! thanks for tuning in and taking the time to leave a comment. Much appreciated Remy!

[@AbdulRazak-l6j]

​@@TradeBrigadethanks man, people like you really exist. Much love man❤

[@JohnVC]

For people that feel like their charts are getting cluttered with drawings... Remember that you can save charts under a different name. So for example I can save a chart called Spy1 for intraday trading which is very clean and just has levels. Then I can have a chart called Spy2 which has my trend lines, fib levels, etc. So if I'm trading the Spy I'll have these two charts open and tab between them. So I can trade the clean intraday chart on a 5 minute time frame but then tab over to the 30 minute chart with fibonacci's etc. for big picture stuff.

[@TradeBrigade]

Fantastic point John! Thanks for dropping this gem of knowledge in the comments.

I am working through many of your older videos and have just watched this, learned so many new functions in TV, and would urge any new users of TV to get their heads into this video. Thank you Matt onward to the next one.

[@TradeBrigade]

Love to hear it! Thanks for the feedback and passing it along to friends. TV does have some newer updates, so some of the tools on the side have changed.

[@axelstuart2707]

Thank you for everything you do and show. I only watched the first few minutes, so I can't say much. I would add (if it wasn't mentioned later on): You can lock/unlock auto on price-scale by scrolling with mouse-wheel while mouse is on the scale. I think you can show all the options on the tools by right-clicking them. Just some things people might prefer.

[@TradeBrigade]

Very good points about right clicking on drawings!

[@Tk-gy3he]

[@Rightgroup1]

Hello Matt Great video thanks ! 2 questions 1 for anchored VWAP in favorites can we preset the settings on VWAP in favorites to avoid the green areas? 2 for Price Range what's an easy e way to get 50% line displayed Thanks again

[@TradeBrigade]

1. Yes, just save the indicator as a new default by changing the styles as a new template. Should stay active that way. Wont have to reset every time. 2. I would just use a the fib tool with only the 50% retrace visible. Also the measuring tool automatically includes a 50% mark. Hope this helps!

Hey, thanks. I'm curious if you know how to disable the 'Cursor' at all. No dot, no cross and nothing.

Hah! Just found the same question elsewhere. I just have to right click on the tab and click "Reload" and voila ! Huge relief!!

Yep should just be a loading issue! Glad it was resolved.

[@Random.Adventures.]

Thank you i have a question when i draw the arrow line the arrow has a magnetic movvement to the grid lines how do i remove this so i can draw my arrow freely thanks Also magnet mode is off

[@TradeBrigade]

If you have magnet mode off it shouldnt snap anywhere. It should be guided by your cursor, not the OHLC of any given bar. This is an odd one and may have to do with your screen resolution / refresh rate throwing things off, not so much the platform itself. Just double check magnet mode is off, and its not secretly on soft magnet. The icon is the same.

[@Random.Adventures.]

@@TradeBrigade thanks. Ya forsure it is off. but you know the background grid boxes it's snappig exactly on those but not when i am zoomed out just when i zoom in more. Example 1 year time frame on the daily, 1 hour. once i start zooming in more and more it will lock to the grids but not if i am zoomed out. Maybe that's just how it is

Can I do it just change to SPY and change to all other layouts ? Can you guide me this please?

You can link time frames! When you open the layout tab, select sync timeframes. When you change one, they will all change. You have to select this once, and it will stay toggled on.

If the magnet is off I'm not sure what to tell ya. There should be no issue with snapping ever if you have it toggled in the off position on any timeframe. Call up support and see if they know anything additional. Wish I could be of further assistance.

[@TradeBrigade]

Thanks for the feedback Spyros, I think that as TV has been updating their platform, some of these legacy features dont work exactly as described. However, for the most part the strength of the platform comes from the templates, object tree, and pinescript. Perhaps I'll have to do an updated version of this for 2024.

I'm just looking for a simple drawing tool in TV for drawing a simple zig zag line from any point on the chart I choose to as many other points I choose.
