Trade-o-Scope: Plot Custom Data v2

4 days ago

Meet [Trade-o-Scope: Plot Custom Data v2] — a major tool upgrade for plotting your own data on TradingView charts. Simple and intuitive input format, large volume limits, and robust plotting for your own datasets — forecasts, backtests, or external data and model outputs.

You can apply/overlay other indicators from the TradingView catalog (such as Bollinger Bands, RSI, etc.) on top of custom data charts. The indicator you want to overlay must support selecting an input data source — i.e., have a dropdown where you can choose [Trade-o-Scope: Plot Custom Data v2] as the source.

🧩 How to use

Simply select and copy two columns — with dates and values — from your spreadsheet (Excel, Google Sheets, etc.) and paste them into the indicator’s input field. The indicator will automatically process the input and plot your data on the chart.

Example data:
