TradingView alternative: what SuperCharting offers and how it differs

Looking for a TradingView alternative? SuperCharting is a browser charting workstation with Pine-compatible scripts, backtesting and alerts, currently free.

If you are looking for a TradingView alternative that feels familiar, SuperCharting is a browser charting workstation laid out the way TradingView users expect: the same kind of chart toolbar, indicator dialog, Pine-compatible Script Editor, Strategy Tester and alerts. It is currently free to use, and every account gets Premium-level limits such as 16 charts per tab and 1,000 price alerts. This page sets out what it offers, where it differs, and who it suits, so you can decide honestly.

TradingView is a trademark of TradingView, Inc.; SuperCharting is not affiliated with it.

Why traders look for a TradingView alternative

The reasons usually come down to three things: the cost of the paid plans needed for several charts per tab, more alerts or intraday features; wanting to use their own broker's data, especially for Indian markets; and wanting something that runs scripts they already know. SuperCharting was built with those three in mind. It is a separate product whose layout and workflows will feel familiar to TradingView users.

What SuperCharting offers as a TradingView alternative

Charts

Candles, hollow candles, bars, line, area, baseline, Heikin Ashi, high-low and columns, plus Renko, Kagi, Line Break, Point & Figure and range bars on any interval. Volume candles, volume footprint and time price opportunity (TPO) charts are built from intrabar data. Custom timeframes such as 45m, 3h or 2D, and second and tick charts (1s to 45s, 1t to 1000t) built from live quotes. Up to 16 charts per tab with symbol, interval, crosshair and time sync.

Indicators and scripts

A built-in library modelled on TradingView's open built-in indicators, favourites, templates, volume profiles, auto chart patterns, and indicators applied to other indicators. Your own scripts are written in Pine Script v6 syntax in the Script Editor, which checks the code as you type and shows errors with line numbers. Scripts can be published to a community library as open, protected or invite-only.

Backtesting

A Strategy Tester with key stats, an equity curve, performance analysis, trades analysis and a list of trades, and a built-in strategy optimiser that searches input ranges with five methods. Past results do not guarantee future results.

Alerts

Price alerts, script and strategy alerts, multi-condition alerts with up to five conditions, watchlist alerts, alerts that do not expire, webhooks and Telegram messages with a chart picture.

Markets and research

Indian markets (NSE, BSE, MCX, NFO) through the site's Angel One feed or your own broker connection, with Zerodha, Angel One, Dhan, Upstox, FYERS and others supported on the /brokers page; forex, gold and CFDs from broker feeds; and public data where it is available. Data is live when the market is open and the feed allows. There are also stock and bond screeners, an option chain, company fundamentals, calendars and paper trading.

Where SuperCharting differs from TradingView

A fair comparison has to include the other side:

• Data coverage. TradingView covers a very wide range of exchanges and instruments worldwide. SuperCharting's coverage depends on its feeds and your broker connections, so some markets are thinner or missing.
• Community size. TradingView's public library and ideas stream are very large. SuperCharting's community library is young and much smaller.
• Script compatibility. Pine Script is TradingView's language. SuperCharting runs Pine-compatible scripts in the v6 syntax, and most common scripts run, but not every feature behaves identically. Check a script's output before relying on it.
• Speed of heavy scripts. Scripts run on SuperCharting's servers, so very heavy scripts over many bars refresh more slowly.
• Apps and trading. TradingView has its own desktop and mobile apps and connects to brokers for live orders. SuperCharting runs in the browser on desktop and phone, and offers paper trading; broker connections are used for market data, not for placing real orders.
• Maturity. TradingView has been refined over many years. SuperCharting is newer and still adding features.

How to try SuperCharting as a TradingView alternative

1. Create a free account and sign in. No card is needed today.
2. Type a symbol in the chart's symbol search, for example NSE:NIFTY, XAUUSD or EURUSD, and pick a timeframe such as 15 minutes.
3. Click Indicators and add a few you use every day, such as RSI, VWAP or Supertrend.
4. Choose a layout with two or four charts from the layout menu and turn on symbol and crosshair sync.
5. Press Ctrl + E, paste one of your own Pine v6 scripts and click Add to chart. The console tells you whether it runs.
6. Create a price alert with Alt + A to see how alerts and notifications work.

If you trade Indian markets with Zerodha, Angel One or another supported broker, connect it on the /brokers page to chart with your own data.

What "currently free" means

SuperCharting is free to use today: no paid plan is required, and every account gets the same limits, which match TradingView's Premium list: 16 charts per tab, 50 indicators per chart, 40,000 bars of history per chart, 200 chart pages open at once, 1,000 price alerts, 1,000 technical alerts, 15 watchlist alerts and alerts that do not expire. Paid plans may be introduced later, which is why this page says "currently free". For the free angle in detail, read free TradingView alternative, and for where each Premium-style feature lives in SuperCharting, see TradingView Premium features, free.

Who SuperCharting suits

• Traders who want several charts per tab, many alerts and intraday chart types without a paid plan today.
• Indian traders who want NSE, BSE, MCX and F&O charts with their own broker connection.
• Script writers who know Pine v6 and want to write, backtest and optimise in the browser.

It suits less well if you depend on a very broad set of world exchanges, a huge public script library, or placing live orders from the chart.
