Getting started
Welcome to our TradingView Widgets documentation.
This documentation will guide you on integrating our financial widgets into your website. You will learn how to customize the widgets, implement and use them effectively for top-notch financial visualization.
What are widgets
TradingView Widgets are ready-to-use financial tools you can embed into your website to display market data.
Widgets are perfect for finance blogs, trading platforms, portfolio trackers, or any website that wants to share financial insights with users. With just a few lines of code, you can display interactive charts, live tickers, economic calendars, watchlists, and more.
How widgets work
Each widget is available as a lightweight HTML snippet or a React component, so you can easily integrate it into any website or app. Widgets come with built-in data provided by TradingView, so there’s no need to connect your own data sources or APIs. All you do is just:
- Pick a widget.
- Customize it in the constructor.
- Copy and paste the auto-generated embed code into your website.
That’s it — the widget appears instantly!
Also, each widget is fully responsive and designed with accessibility in mind, making it easy to deliver a seamless experience across devices and assistive technologies.
Widget formats
TradingView widgets are available in two variations: iframe and Web Component. The difference is purely technical. Both formats display the exact same high-quality market data, charts, and designs. However, they differ in how they are embedded, customized, and loaded inside your website code.
- Web Component: This is a newer, more modern technology. You can identify these widgets by the embed code, which uses tags that start with
tv-(for example,<tv-mini-ticker-chart>). - Iframe: This is the classic embedding method used across the web. The embed code for these will rely on standard
<script>tags.
When you browse the widgets collection, each page will clearly indicate which format is being used so you know what to expect when you copy the code. If you want to dive deeper into the technical differences, read a Widget formats guide.
