At a glance

Sets up a TradingView chart with a symbol, timeframe and indicators, marks key levels, takes a screenshot and reports price range, levels and overall bias.

  • Works in 6 steps: Set Up the Chart → Add Indicators → Navigate to Key Areas → …
  • Reviewing a chart for technical analysis in TradingView Desktop
  • SKILL.md covers Step 1: Set Up the Chart, Step 2: Add Indicators, Step 3: Navigate to Key Areas and Step 4: Annotate, plus 3 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

This skill walks the agent through technical analysis on a TradingView Desktop chart using the tradingview-mcp tools. It switches the symbol and timeframe, adds indicators by their full names (Relative Strength Index, Moving Average Exponential, MACD, Bollinger Bands, Volume, VWAP, Average True Range) and adjusts their inputs, for example changing an EMA length to 200.

It then scrolls to dates of interest, sets the visible range, draws horizontal support and resistance lines, trend lines and text notes, and captures a screenshot. Recent OHLCV data, the live quote and symbol details are pulled for the numbers. The final report gives the current price and recent range, key support and resistance levels, indicator readings and a bullish, bearish or neutral bias with reasoning. Indicators or drawings you did not ask for are removed afterwards.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing a chart for technical analysis in TradingView Desktop
  • Marking support and resistance on a chart and capturing a screenshot
  • Adding indicators such as RSI or MACD and reading their signals

Example prompts

  • “Analyze the daily chart for AAPL with RSI and MACD and screenshot the result.”
  • “Add a 200 EMA to the BTCUSD chart and mark the nearest support and resistance.”
  • “Switch to the weekly timeframe on SPY, draw the trend line and give me your read on the bias.”

Requirements

  • TradingView Desktop connected through the tradingview-mcp server

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Set Up the Chart
  2. Add Indicators
  3. Navigate to Key Areas
  4. Annotate
  5. Capture and Analyze
  6. Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c05b8f5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

TradingView Chart Analysis loads about 515 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 238 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~515

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 238 words (~515 tokens).

“You are performing technical analysis on a TradingView chart.”
