Our multiple chart layout tool gives traders and investors an easy way to study multiple symbols or timeframes at once. In this post, we'll explain five ways to use the multiple chart layout feature to optimize your process.
Chart different timeframes If you look closely at the charts above, you will notice that there are different timeframes for each chart. One is a daily chart, one is a weekly chart, and another is a 30-minute. The multiple chart layout makes it possible to see these different timeframes all on the same screen. If you search for trades and do research on all time horizons, this is an important feature to master.
Customize the look and feel of your layout Every trader and investor is different in their approach. That's why it's important to have customization tools available. Each chart in the example above uses a different color gradient as its background. The chart farthest to the right is also a line chart while the other two show candlesticks. When using the multiple chart layout you can create your own custom workspace to match your individual style needs.
Diversify your indicators The charts above also show different indicators. For example, the yellow line farthest to the left is a Moving Average while chart in the middle shows a Volume Profile and the chart on the far right shows only volume. You can add only the indicators that matter for each specific chart within your layout.
Chart different symbols at once In the example above, we're looking at three totally different symbols, but all viewable on one screen. This way we can follow price action, study similarities, and look for ideas across different assets. It speeds up our research and is another helpful way to monitor different symbols across the market.
Sync your charts With the click of a button you can sync the symbol, crosshair, interval, time, and drawings for all charts in your layout. To get started, click the layout button at the top of your chart and then find where it says "SYNC ON ALL CHARTS." From this menu you can select the syncs you need so that they all update instantly.
Thanks for reading and we hope you enjoyed this post! If you have any tips, suggestions or feedback to share about the multiple chart layout please write it in the comments below.
You should have this option available for free users. What is the point of nitpicking on something so basic as this and charging for it?

@AlexTrading5, NO kidding I knew that already. But it just seems kind of greedy when it probably doesn't cost them anything more when you have multiple charts open. Personally I think it is a money grab over something trivial that is included for free on most all other charting software. JMHO. Disagree if you want. Actually I just open multiple tabs when I need more than one chart open and then I just tile them side by side. So it''s really not such a big deal.

@Metal-Rules_Rap-Sucks, If they don't charge a fee they cannot have revenue. If they cannot have revenue they cannot pay their developers. If they cannot pay their developers, they will leave ... why? because they are in incredible high demand nowadays. If they do pay their developers then `tomorrow` all users (free and paid) get new features and everyone is happy. A service such as TradingView cannot be free, but it should be correctly priced so that everyone (users, employees, developers etc) involved benefits and is happy.

@Metal-Rules_Rap-Sucks, Completely Agree - this is not an advanced feature in the least and in fact - offering it for free would likely lessen the bourdon on TradingView servers as free users would no longer need to keep multiple connections open. This would seem like an obvious win-win, but this is just my opinion. TradingView is still the best, but it always helps to share your honest opinions even if they aren't popular!

@Metal-Rules_Rap-Sucks@AlexTrading5 Thanks for starting this discussion! We're always listening to feedback so we appreciate it. But you're right that our multiple chart layout is currently only for Pro, Pro+, and Premium members. By the way, it's really easy to take a free trial and test out all of their features associated with each plan. Maybe it's not even right for you? Maybe you only need the lowest plan? Or maybe you prefer to remain as a free member? That's totally fine! These are questions that each user can decide for themselves. Our team is always building new tools and features so stay tuned. Maybe your feedback today will inspire something big in the future. 😎 🙌 ❤️

@TradingView, can you make the above color themes a feature for pro so we can quickly choose a theme for a symbol? Also, can you share why we would need to put indicators on indicators?

@KonstantinosAndreou, Yes! Can make videos and written tutorials for both of these requests

@TradingView, Any updates on the Interactive Brokers integration? I have a workaround going now where I can use both separately but it adds unnecessary complications which only add time, and as you know time is extremely valuable. Theres talk on Reddit of a beta test ongoing right now so I'm curious on how that is coming along?
