Chart Preparation Guide

    Best TradingView Chart Setup for AI Analysis

    A readable chart gives a review enough context to challenge the trade. Prepare the view before scanning rather than expecting a tool to infer what is hidden.

    Procedure

    1

    Choose one decision timeframe

    Use the timeframe on which you plan to act, while leaving enough price history visible to show the current structure.

    Check: Are the relevant swing points and the planned trade on the same screen?

    2

    Keep only purposeful drawings

    Leave the levels, trend lines, zones, and trade box that matter to this setup; remove obsolete marks that compete for attention.

    Check: Can you explain why every visible drawing is relevant now?

    3

    Make indicators legible

    Use only the indicator panes you rely on and make their current readings visible without covering price.

    Check: Would removing an indicator change the entry decision?

    4

    Remove obstructions

    Close popups, order panels, chats, and settings that cover the chart before starting the review.

    Check: Is the entry, stop, target, and invalidation area unobstructed?

    Troubleshooting

    The chart is crowded

    Start a clean layout for review time and keep only the tools your Strategy Lens actually uses.

    The target or stop is off-screen

    Zoom out or pan until the full risk plan is visible; otherwise the review cannot assess room to the target.

    More indicators do not mean more evidence

    A chart is stronger when its visible information answers a decision question. Extra overlays can hide the exact price structure the review needs.

    Use a consistent layout

    The same preparation routine makes it easier to compare one review with the next and notice when an exception is being made for a weak setup.

    Next step

    Clean the chart, mark the plan, then review it.
