How to screenshot TradingView charts

Learn how to automatically capture your TradingView charts with PagePixels.

Introduction

PagePixels is a screenshot automation tool that you can use to take automated scheduled screenshots of web pages, including a TradingView chart page.

PagePixels is free to start, and this tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for automating screenshots of a TradingView chart on a once per day interval.

Example

Quick start with a screenshot template

The quickest way to start capturing your TradingView chart is to use the screenshot template below:

Note: the template uses Advanced Scheduling to only take screenshots on weekdays, Mondays - Fridays, at 9:30 AM Eastern Standard Time.

And if you prefer to set up your TradingView chart screenshot automation from scratch, step-by-step instructions are available in the next section.

How to screenshot your TradingView charts

To take recurring screenshots of your TradingView chart on a daily schedule:

1

Create a screenshot

Log in to your PagePixels account, and click the "+Create Screenshot" button.

2

Set your schedule

By default, recurring screenshots are set to every 5 minutes.

For a daily screenshot, change the default frequency values from every "5" "Minutes" to every "1" "Days" using the input field and drop-down menu.

3

Add URL

Copy and paste your TradingView chart link into the "Website URL to Capture" field.

4

Increase "Time to wait" value

Because data visualizations can take a long time to load, we recommend increasing the "Time to wait" value from 1500 to 8000 (value is in milliseconds).

If the visualizations are still not fully loaded, you can increase this value further (max is 20000).

5

(Optional) Add Custom CSS

Sometimes TradingView displays ads that can block your charts from view. Because these ads are from TradingView, our adblock option won't remove them.

To reduce the chances of capturing these ads in your screenshots, you can use the following CSS in the CSS Injection field:

#overlap-manager-root{
display:none !important;
}
8

Save Screenshot

Click the green "Save Screenshot" button (top-right).

Your screenshot automation is officially set, and your first screenshot will be taken shortly.
