Elevate Your Analysis: A Guide to Recording Video Trading Ideas on TradingView
The TradingView social network is a powerful platform for sharing written analysis, but sometimes a chart speaks louder than words. Video ideas offer a dynamic way to walk your followers through your process, show your drawings in real-time, and explain your trade rationale as markets move. This guide breaks down the essential steps to recording and publishing high-quality video trading ideas directly on the TradingView platform.
1. Starting the Recording Process
The journey to creating a video idea is simple and starts from your chart interface.
- Initiate the Record: Locate and click the “Publish” button in the top-right corner. From the dropdown menu, select “Record a video idea” [00:20].
- Review House Rules: A pop-up will appear outlining key rules for the social network. The core message is to provide high-quality, non-spam content, detailing specifics like your stop loss and take profit levels [01:16]. Note that video ideas are limited to a maximum length of 20 minutes [01:55].
- Select Your Screen: Click “Continue publishing.” Your browser will prompt you to select the screen or browser tab you wish to record. Ensure your chart is open and ready [02:08].
2. Live Recording Features
Once you click “Share,” the recording begins. You’ll see a red indicator and a timer at the top-right of your chart, confirming you are live [02:27].
- Chart Annotation: Everything you do on the chart is recorded. Use your drawing tools to highlight key areas (like a big candle), add horizontal support/resistance lines, and apply indicators (such as Volume or a Moving Average) to visually explain your analysis [02:45].
- Pause and Resume: Need to gather your thoughts or take a break? Click the “Pause” button. The timer will stop, allowing you to take a breather before resuming the recording [03:39].
- Audio and Video Control:
3. Reviewing and Finalizing the Video
When your analysis is complete, click “Stop” to end the recording [05:10].
- Review: You can immediately watch your recording, mute the playback, go full-screen, or even download the video to upload elsewhere [05:30], [05:59].
- Title and Description: This is a crucial step for context.
- Title: Create a clear, explanatory title (e.g., “The Dip I’m Watching on NVDA”) [06:30].
- Description: Provide a meaningful and detailed description of your analysis and prediction. It is recommended to write a thorough explanation (five or more sentences) [06:59]. You can use editing tools, add links, and easily insert a hyperlinked symbol tag by searching for the ticker (e.g., NVDA) [08:11].
4. Final Touches and Publication
The last step involves categorizing your idea to ensure it reaches the right audience.
- Visibility: Choose between Public (shared with the entire social network) or Private (only visible to those with the link) [08:43].
- Type: Select whether your video is an Analysis (a specific trade or investment idea) or a Tutorial (more educational content) [09:29].
- Position: Define your current market stance: Long, Neutral, or Short [09:47].
- Categories: Select relevant categories like Support and Resistance or Growth and Value to give your idea context [10:14].
- Context and Continuity:
Once published, your idea will appear in the Community -> Trade Ideas section [14:12]. You can revisit your idea later to use the “Update idea” feature, adding notes to track the trade’s progress (e.g., “Trade Active,” “Target Reached,” or “Stop Reached”) [12:53]. This allows you to provide continuous context for your followers.
By following these steps, you can create a comprehensive, engaging, and highly informative video idea that effectively showcases your trading process and builds your following in the TradingView community.
