Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between widgets and libraries?
Widgets are embeddable iframe objects that TradingView hosts. They contain data from TradingView and can be included in your site/app by copypasting a simple script. Libraries are components that you host on your servers, and connect them to your data through the API.
What's the difference between the Advanced Charts and Trading Platform?
Our Advanced Chart library is a free, standalone solution that you can host on your own servers, even plug your own data into, plus integrate with your website + app. Meanwhile the Trading Platform library contains all of the above, but also has direct trading functionality, if it's needed.
Can I get a library for personal use?
At this time, we do not provide the Advanced Charts and the Trading Platform libraries for personal use, hobbies, studies, or testing. The licenses can be provided only to companies and/or individuals for use in public web projects and/or applications. However, you may utilize the Lightweight Charts for personal projects since it comes with an open-source Apache 2.0 license.
What do I need to know before applying for the Trading Platform library?
The Platform library should be connected to the broker's back-end: both the data stream and order management (routing) system. You can trade right from the chart, and all you have to do to make this work is to implement your Broker API and plug it into the chart widget.
What do I need to start implementing the Advanced Charts?
Advanced Charts should be used by technical specialists. This library requires advanced skills in JavaScript and deep knowledge of WEB protocols.
Will I get a source code for the libraries?
Lightweight Charts™ are open-source under the Apache 2.0 license. For other charting solutions we do not provide source code.
Where do I get technical support?
Documentation, bug tracker & examples for the charting libraries are on Github, accessible after you've been given access to the particular library repo itself. If you need more help, reach out to platforms@tradingview.com
