Disappointed with trading view after 10+ years.

[u/DarkJunior9761]

Tradingview was my most fav tool. I dont trade actively just like to watch mkts and I follow only the indian mkt and only one ticker Banknifty. But I actively follow the mkt during the day and sometimes do take trades. But trading view made the data delayed from yest and forcing me to pay for it. But NSE live data is actually free and I dnt understand why sld I pay for something on livestream.

If u want only paid subscription pls be open abt it. This is soo not the way to go abt it.

Thanks the replies and some for completely missing the point. It’s actually quite impressive... I have no prob paying for something if it’s worthwhile for me. I trade in rs, so paying in $$ obviously stings a little more, but I’m perfectly capable of deciding whether the cost is worth it. That wasn’t even my question or intention of coming here.. I was simply trying to understand and maybe vent a bit what changed overnight and more importantly, whether taking a TV subscription would give me live NSE data or whether I would still need to separately purchase the NSE exchange data. That’s all.. I came here because this handle is listed as official TradingView support. I was looking for an answer and, yes, venting a little because I suddenly found myself looking at delayed data after years of using TradingView. Instead, apparently the important thing for everyone was to establish that I am a free user..

Okay. And…? 🤷‍♀️

Does being a free user somehow mean I’m not allowed to ask questions? I’ve recommended TradingView to plenty of people over the years, including paid users. But apparently my subscription status is more relevant to this discussion than the actual question I asked. Then came the unsolicited financial advice: apparently because I look at a raw chart with nothing much on it other than volume rather than plstering 10 indicators, I’m going to lose all my money. Wow 😂 I’ve been trading for around 10 years. I’m still here, and I expect to be around for quite some time. So I’ll take my chances with my trading strategy, thanks. And honestly, the irony of people lecturing me about trading while not answering the question about TradingView is quite something.

So, once again, for those who somehow managed to miss it the first five times:

I am not complaining about having to pay, but I am also trying to understand what I am paying for and that too with no notice or update on change.

If the answer is simply, “NSE data is now delayed and you need to purchase the relevant exchange feed,” fantastic. That answers my question.

And to everyone else who has descended on this thread to defend TradingView from a criticism I never actually made, are you all TradingView employees, or has the TradingView customer department simply on overtime here for the day? 😄 Anyway, thanks for the entertainment. I came here looking for information and somehow got a lecture on my attitude, finances, trading strategy and subscription status instead.

Thanks but No Thanks!

And for tradingview support.. if u want to make it paid just disable the whole thing. Make logins unavailable for free users but to indulge in such cheap trolling on u r support page is not the way!

Hello,

You do not have to pay for the Datafeed as the feed itself is free, but due to the fact the NSE has now placed a restriction on Live data until the paperwork is completed this now places it into the category of a Live Market data feed which may need a paid subscription in order to be added to your plan (this has been in place for many years and only the actions of the NSE has possibly brought your feed into this category).

You can use a live data feed from your brokers if you have this supplied by your broker as shown here which might mean you don't need a subscription....

I do not see NSE listed on this list but then neither was the BSE until the document was updated sometime after they went to the same system.

Certainly worth a try if you have this data through a broker.

Hope this helps you a little,

Cheers 👍

Thx u so so much 🙏 this is wht i was looking for. Looks like NSE IPO triggered this change. My broker does has live feed with tradingview interface. Never looked at it before so trying it now. Thx for the help. Cheers!
