My Most Used TradingView Hotkeys!

By VaidoVeek

Just wanted to highlight a few of my most-used TradingView hotkeys:

ALT + H: Horizontal line – Ideal for marking round numbers or mark tight support/resistance areas. For broader S&R zones, I often use the rectangle tool.
ALT + V: Vertical line – Rarely use it, it’s handy for highlighting specific dates below the chart.
ALT + T: Trendline – Provides quick access to one of the most essential tools for analyzing long-term stock movements.
[*]ALT + I: Invert the chart – Probably the most interesting hotkey! If you find it challenging to take "SELL" setups or tend to prefer "BUY" ideas, flipping the chart can reveal a fresh perspective. If your bias remains unchanged after inverting, it may be a solid setup for you. This can help reduce psychological biases; sometimes, just viewing it from another angle makes all the difference.
ALT + S: Take a screenshot – An easy way to share your chart with friends or colleagues.
ALT + F: Fibonacci tool – I’m using it less often lately, but it’s still there when needed.
ALT + W: Add to watchlist – Quickly adds interesting charts to your watchlist.
ALT + A: Set an alert
SHIFT + CLICK: Measure tool – Instant access to measure distances or changes on the chart.

Hopefully, this helps save you a bit of time hunting for these tools. After all, time is money!
