1. What are Paid Spaces?

Paid Spaces represent a professional tier of the TradingView community. Unlike the standard Public Library, content in Paid Spaces is often proprietary and requires a subscription [00:16].

• Vetted Creators: Currently, Paid Spaces are only available to a select group of creators reviewed by the TradingView team for their consistent and high-quality contributions [07:09].
• Content Types: Creators typically offer customized technical indicators, backtested trading strategies, or access to exclusive trading communities [00:25].

2. Researching and Investigating Creators

Before committing to a subscription, performing due diligence is critical for a “genius” level workflow:

• Space Overview: Each space provides a summary of what is included (e.g., how many indicators or strategies) and the creator’s specific focus [00:48].
• Investigating Tools: You can click on specific strategies or indicators within a space to read detailed documentation provided by the author before you buy [01:10].
• Follow First: It is recommended to use the Follow button on a creator’s profile to monitor their public ideas and community engagement before subscribing to their premium tier [01:57].

3. The Subscription and Integration Process

TradingView has streamlined the integration of premium content to ensure security and ease of use:

1. Direct Billing: All payments are handled through TradingView’s built-in system, meaning your financial data is not shared with the individual creator [02:12].
2. Instant Access: Once a purchase is complete, the tools are immediately added to your account [02:27].
3. The “Purchased” Folder: To find your new tools, open the Indicators menu on your SuperChart. You will see a dedicated “Purchased” section where all active subscriptions are stored [03:12].

4. Applying and Managing Premium Tools

• Adding to Chart: Simply click the tool in the “Purchased” folder to apply it to your current chart [03:47].
• Settings Adjustment: Just like standard indicators, you can access the Settings (Gear Icon) to adjust inputs, style, and parameters specific to that premium tool [04:29].
• Favorites: You can “Star” premium tools to keep them at the top of your indicator list for faster access [03:54].

---

5. Managing Your Account

• Access via SuperChart: You can browse the “Store” directly from your chart’s indicator menu to see what other vetted creators are offering [05:23].
• Cancellation: Subscriptions are managed under Account Settings > Billing. You can cancel at any time, and you will typically retain access until the end of your current billing cycle [06:45].

Learning Summary

Paid Spaces offer a way to bypass the “noise” of the public library and access professional-grade tools. However, the key to success is alignment. Ensure the creator’s style (e.g., scalping, trend following, or macro) matches your personal trading plan. Use these tools to enhance your analysis, not as a substitute for your own research and risk management.
