Important
TradeLocker and TradingView are separate platforms with different purposes.
TradeLocker is focused on live trading and execution workflows. TradingView is primarily focused on charting and technical analysis tools.
What TradeLocker does
TradeLocker is a trading platform designed for:
Live trade execution
Order management
Risk management workflows
Broker-connected trading
Orders placed in TradeLocker are executed by your broker or prop firm, not by TradeLocker itself.
Your broker controls:
Trade execution
Position opening and closing
Liquidity
Pricing
Margin and account rules
What TradingView does
TradingView is mainly a charting and analysis platform.
It provides:
Indicators
Drawing tools
Technical analysis features
Community scripts and chart tools
TradingView and TradeLocker are separate products and use different systems.
TradingView charts inside TradeLocker
TradeLocker uses a licensed TradingView charting implementation inside the platform.
Because of this:
TradeLocker does not own TradingView indicators
TradeLocker cannot modify TradingView indicator logic
Indicator behavior is controlled by TradingView systems
For detailed indicator functionality, TradingView documentation should be referenced directly.
Indicator and chart behavior
Some indicators may require additional historical data to calculate correctly.
Example:
VWAP on lower timeframes may need more loaded candles
In these situations, you may see messages such as: “To calculate the indicator, more data is needed. Zoom out or scroll left to load more historical data.”
If this happens:
Zoom out on the chart
Scroll further left
Load more historical candles
Broker and execution differences
Chart appearance and execution behavior may differ between platforms because:
Brokers use different liquidity providers
Data feeds differ
Execution systems differ
Spread and pricing sources differ
TradeLocker does not control market execution systems.
Keep in mind
Questions specifically related to TradingView platform behavior, subscriptions, or charting infrastructure should be directed to TradingView support or official documentation.
