 What's up everybody JTW here and in this video I'm going to be covering some of my favorite tips tricks and features of trading view that I think either Many people are not aware of we're just aren't taking advantage of so with that. Let's let's dive right in First thing I want to talk about is the layouts in trading view So you can view your different layouts by clicking the menu up here, which will pull up Your current layout will be listed right here, and then you can see any other layouts that you might have and so what the layouts do is they remember any chart properties drawings That you set on this chart and those will be specific to that a particular layout so for example We're looking at Google here on the one hour And let's say I wanted to drop some levels on Google for trading longer term trades. These aren't real levels I'm just dropping some on the chart here And I wanted to set this up for longer term trades based on these levels that I've got here and let's also say Maybe instead of using Standard candles. I want to use hiking candles on this particular layout And so I might have everything set up in this layout like you see here on the screen So I'll go ahead and save that But now if I switch to another layout, let's go to the 15 minute Google chart You'll see that this layout still my candles are my standard bars And I don't have any drawings here on the screen so I could do levels here on this chart that Again might be better for scalping or something along those lines And maybe I don't want to have these Levels co-mingled with my longer term levels. Maybe I prefer to see the shorter term trades and see actual standard candlesticks versus Hiking candles that I might prefer to use for longer term trades So taking advantage of all the things that the layouts can remember that will make it very easy for you to switch between How the chart is set up? Let me save this real quick is is something that you can definitely Use to your advantage Another thing that you might have noticed as I was going through and putting some levels on this chart here is That I was able to quickly drop those price levels on without going over here to the menu bar and pulling the horizontal line tool from the drawing section of the menu bar And that's because trading view provides us with some really nice keyboard shortcuts So the one that I'm using here to drop these horizontal lines down is all H The other one that I really like a lot is alt T, which will drop a trend line Or put you onto the trend line tool so you can then start drawing a trend line Wherever and however you like, but I think horizontal lines and trend lines are probably the most commonly used drawings For anybody that's doing technical analysis another thing just to always take a look at is the different settings That you might have available for each drawing tool For example, if I wanted to extend this line left or right, I can quickly do that I can also turn that off. There's a lot of different things that you can play with I'm not going to go through each of these options But definitely something to familiarize yourself with when it comes to taking Full advantage of the trading view drawing tools Another thing that I really like about trading views I can also set certain drawing tools as favorites. So for example, I like to use the trend-based Fib extension a lot So if I wanted to make that a favorite all I need to do is come over here to the drawings menu And click this little star icon next to the trend-based Fib extension You'll see that that pops up in this essentially like a little tool tip down here in the bottom right And so any other drawings that I add to or drawing tools, I should say that I add to that Get added to this bar down here. So then I can very quickly come down here and just one click To come and draw a trend-based Fib extension You know if I ever saw the need to without having to fish through a bunch of menus and try to find it So anything that can sort of speed up your ability to analyze and look at a chart I think is a good thing Another thing that a lot of people aren't aware of for those of you that like to use extended hours data When it comes to looking at your charts and doing your technical analysis By default the one day is not going to include extended hours And so if you ever want to see a daily candlestick chart But you also want to see extended hours It's actually pretty easy But it's the thing that most people just neglect to do if I come down here and set it to 24 hours and click add Now I've got a 24-hour chart that will include Extended hours with each candle being a daily candle And I'm actually going to switch this back to my other layout because I'm not typically a hiking guy But just wanted to show you guys that that little tip on how to get Extended hours with daily candles because that's not that's something again that just a lot of people aren't aware of And one of the you know best parts of any charting platform is going to be the indicators And one thing that I think trading view does a really good job with are these templates So for example, if I wanted to load up this chart with some of my favorite indicators So I'm gonna go ahead and add Neptune on here I'm gonna add sound wave for my volume analysis gonna add the oscillator by KJ and Let's also add the support resistance that a lot of people have found useful when it comes to Sort of having automated price targets in combination with Neptune So if I put all these indicators on my chart It's very easy for me to then save every element of each of these indicators to a template So that's all of the settings for each indicator. You can tweak those however you want So for example, if I wanted to change these SR levels from orange to white And let's say I wanted to change The higher time frame flag here on Neptune to the one hour So we're running, you know, basically two flags now We're looking at the 15 minute chart flag in the one hour flag. I can save all of that to my template Simply by going up here and going to templates and save indicator template I'll give it the name XT demo And one thing that you're probably never going to want to do is remember the symbol Because then any time you try to load this template, it's going to automatically pull up that ticker by default Something you may want to take advantage of though is remembering the chart interval, especially for any indicators that Can use two different time frames in conjunction with one another So a chart time frame and then the indicator can either load a separate time frame or some sort of a multiplier time frame Similar to what Neptune does with the high interval flag You probably will want to remember your interval for that. And so what that does is now if I switch to the 45 minute chart, let's say and I go up here and I load my XT demo that we just did it automatically flips me back to the 15 minute chart So, you know, again, that's a nice thing to take advantage of one click or a couple of clicks gets you right To where you want to be but if we can cut some of those clicks out I don't see why we wouldn't want to do that So if I come up here to my templates just like with the drawing tools, you can see that we've got this star icon That will allow us to favorite templates And so if I were to for example save this scalp another scalp short swings long swings All it's favorite templates. You'll see they're now listed up here zero one two three And if I click any of them without even having to go in here to the templates menu and select the right template I can then very quickly change between The different templates that I might have you'll notice as I hover over these it shows me what each template is now Mine up here say zero one two three That's just based on how I have them named here when I created them You can you know, it's going to go by the first character In the in the in that template name So, you know if you want to have ABCD or you know, whatever Float your boat up here You know, just make that the first character of the template name and that's how they'll be set up I just happen to have mine at zero one two three last thing I'm going to touch on is With trading view you've always had the ability to turn Certain elements on and off as far as the visibility without fully removing them from your chart So just like with these SR levels I can sit here and I can do this one by one or I can also come over here to this visibility menu and if I click and hold on it You'll see I have the option to hide drawings hide indicators or hide both so I can hide just the drawings if I want to I Can hide the indicators as well, but that switches it that puts the drawings back on or I Can hide both which will just totally you know remove everything from the chart Come back over here click that back off and now I can see everything again So anyway, this is just these are just a few of the Things that I like to leverage when it comes to having trading view is my charting platform that allow me to quickly Do technical analysis put my drawings on there and then as I'm looking at different tickers for possible Plays I can very quickly switch between my templates And and make a decision that is more informed in less time So I hope that this is all very helpful If you guys have any questions about trading view or Neptune feel free to shoot me a DM And I look forward to working with you guys. Take care
