Adding TDL Indicators to Your Chart
Step-by-step guide to accessing and adding your indicators in TradingView.
Before You Start
You need a TradingView account. The free plan works for most TDL indicators. A TradingView Premium plan is recommended if you plan to run 5+ indicators simultaneously on the same chart, as free accounts have limits on the number of indicators per chart.
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1 — Open TradingView
Go to tradingview.com and log in to your account. Open any chart.
Step 2 — Click the Indicators Button
At the top of your chart, click the Indicators button (it shows a graph icon labeled "Indicators, Metrics & Strategies" or similar, depending on your TradingView version).
Step 3 — Select "Invite-Only Scripts"
In the Indicators search panel that opens, look for the tab or section labeled "Invite-Only Scripts". This is where all your TDL indicators will appear after your access has been provisioned.
Step 4 — Add Your Indicators
All TDL indicators you have access to will be listed here. Click any indicator name to add it to your chart. Some indicators add an overlay directly to the price chart; others open in a separate panel below.
Step 5 — Arrange Your Chart Layout
Suggested panel arrangement for the Swing & Options Edge:
- Main price chart: Trade Execution Suite overlay + MTF Reaction & S/R Zones
- Panel 1 below: Wave Oscillator Confluence Pro
- Separate tab (weekly chart): Macro Compass
- Separate tab (daily chart): Formation Scanner
Suggested panel arrangement for Futures & Day Trading Edge:
- Main price chart: Institutional Edge Algo v8.5 overlay + HMA Concavity Pro
- Panel 1 below: Delta Flow Pro
- Panel 2 below: Wave Oscillator Confluence Pro
- Adaptive Weighted Algo as overlay or additional panel
Troubleshooting: "I Don't See My Indicators"
- Check your TradingView username: The username on your TradingView account must match exactly what was provided at purchase. Case-sensitive.
- Allow up to 15 minutes: Access is not always instant. Refresh TradingView after waiting.
- Check the right tab: Indicators are in "Invite-Only Scripts," not the public search.
- Contact support: If indicators are still missing after 15 minutes, reach out via the contact form with your TradingView username and purchase confirmation.
