What Is Deriv's TradingView Integration?

Deriv's TradingView integration uses TradingView's Advanced Charts engine inside its platform, based on an official partnership announced in June 2025.

The TradingView component covers charting only, so traders use the TradingView chart interface to analyse markets, then place trades separately through whichever Deriv platform they trade on. The integration does not add Deriv to TradingView.com as a broker, and it does not connect a TradingView.com account to Deriv in any way.

What Deriv traders get is TradingView's chart interface inside Deriv: 100+ indicators, 17 chart types, 110+ drawing tools, and all Deriv assets, including synthetic indices. The chart is accessible for free at charts.deriv.com, with no registration required — but it is not synced to a TradingView.com account with saved watchlists, scripts, or portfolios.

Warning on Synthetic Indices: Deriv's TradingView charts cover Synthetic Indices (Volatility 75, Crash 300, Boom 500, etc.) — but better charts do not change what these products are. Synthetic Indices are generated by Deriv's own random number algorithm, with a house edge built in. Treat them as a casino product, not a financial market. Use charts.deriv.com for forex, commodities, and stock index analysis. For Synthetic Indices, demo only.

Where Can Traders Access Deriv's TradingView Charts?

Deriv's TradingView-powered charts are available at charts.deriv.com (free, browser-based, no account required) and through a third-party plugin for the cTrader desktop app.

charts.deriv.com is a standalone charting portal accessible in any browser on any device — desktop, tablet, or mobile — with no Deriv registration required. The cTrader plugin ("Deriv Charts" by AISmart, free since March 2025) integrates the same chart interface directly inside the cTrader desktop app, combining analysis and execution in one window. TradingView charts are not available inside Deriv MT5, Deriv Trader, or Deriv Go.

Tip for traders in India, South Africa, Kenya, and Bangladesh: charts.deriv.com is lightweight and browser-based — it loads reliably on 3G/4G connections and on low-spec Android phones without requiring an app download.

What Happened to Deriv X TradingView?

Deriv X was the first Deriv platform to feature native TradingView integration, but was discontinued in August 2025. charts.deriv.com is its direct replacement.

charts.deriv.com is accessible to any trader, anywhere, with zero setup. However, it runs as a separate browser tab from the trading platform, so every trade requires switching windows, which adds friction to the analysis-to-execution flow. Meanwhile, TradingView can be directly integrated into cTrader, removing that friction.

Deriv TradingView Tools and Features

Deriv's TradingView charts at charts.deriv.com include over 100 technical indicators, 17 chart types, 110+ drawing tools, and more than 30 timeframes, all accessible free of charge in any web browser.

The feature set covers the full core TradingView charting toolkit:

Note: Deriv's TradingView integration does not support trade execution, community features, or synchronisation with a TradingView.com account. Trades are placed through the relevant Deriv platform (MT5, Deriv Trader, cTrader), not from within the chart.

Is Deriv's TradingView Free?

Yes, Deriv's TradingView charts at charts.deriv.com are entirely free — no TradingView.com subscription, no Deriv account, and no registration of any kind is required to access the full chart interface.

TradingView's own Essential plan, which allows up to 5 indicators per chart, starts at $14.95/month. The Pro plan, which unlocks up to 25 indicators and additional chart layouts, costs $29.95/month.

What traders would pay $15–30/month for on TradingView.com, they get for free on charts.deriv.com — that is the clearest practical advantage of this integration. The catch: the free version does not include Pine Script, community indicators, or execution. If those are needed, a TradingView.com account is still required.

Deriv TradingView vs. Deriv's Built-In Charts

Deriv currently provides three distinct charting environments across its platforms. Here's how they compare:

Feature SmartCharts MT5 Charts TradingView (charts.deriv.com)
Built-in indicators~2038100+
Chart types~6317
Drawing toolsBasic44110+
Timeframes~102130+
Multi-chart viewNoYesYes
Synthetic indicesYesYesYes
Interface qualityBasicDatedModern
Account requiredYesYesNo
Deriv TradingView is clearly better than SmartCharts and MT5 in terms of tools and usability, but we'd still recommend sticking with Deriv's native charts — because the TradingView charts are not inside the trading platforms themselves, which can slow down your workflow.

Deriv TradingView vs. TradingView.com

Editorial Note — Price Feed Accuracy: For standard forex pairs, Deriv's charts use the broker's own pricing feed, which differs from neutral aggregated sources. During our review, GBP/AUD on charts.deriv.com showed approximately 8 pips above TradingView.com's data feed — likely reflecting spread and data source divergence rather than a fixed error.

How to Use TradingView Charts on Deriv

Deriv's TradingView charts are accessible through two routes: directly via charts.deriv.com in any browser, or embedded inside the cTrader desktop app via a third-party plugin.

Option 1 — Via charts.deriv.com (No Account Required)

  1. Open a browser and go to charts.deriv.com — no login, download, or account is required.
  2. Use the instrument search bar to find any asset (e.g., type "Volatility 75," "EUR/USD," "Gold").
  3. Select the instrument — the TradingView chart interface loads immediately.
  4. Add indicators using the Indicators toolbar at the top of the chart.
  5. Apply drawing tools from the toolbar on the left side of the screen.
  6. To place a trade based on the analysis, switch to the relevant Deriv trading platform — Deriv Trader, MT5, or cTrader.

Option 2 — Via the Deriv cTrader Plugin

  1. Log in to a Deriv account and go to Trader's Hub → CFDs → Deriv cTrader to set up a cTrader account (demo or live).
  2. Download and open the cTrader desktop app — the Windows version is recommended.
  3. Inside cTrader, navigate to Plugins → cTrader Store, search for "Deriv Charts" (by AISmart, free since March 2025), and install it.
  4. Access the embedded charts inside cTrader — trade execution still happens through cTrader's own order entry.
We can recommend Deriv TradingView on cTrader, but only on Windows. The cTrader Mac version has shown reliability issues with login and Trader's Hub syncing. For everything else, native charts remain the more practical default despite their simpler interface.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Deriv's TradingView the same as TradingView.com?
No — Deriv's integration uses TradingView's Advanced Charts engine, but charts.deriv.com is a standalone portal hosted by Deriv. It is not connected to a TradingView.com account, does not include Pine Script or community indicators, and is not listed on TradingView.com as a broker.
Can traders execute trades directly from Deriv's TradingView charts?
No. charts.deriv.com is a charting environment only. Trades must be placed through a separate Deriv platform — Deriv Trader, MT5, or cTrader. The only exception is the cTrader desktop plugin, which places execution controls inside the same window as the chart.
Does Deriv TradingView work on mobile?
Yes — charts.deriv.com works in any mobile browser without an app download. It loads on Android and iOS via Chrome or Safari. The cTrader plugin is desktop-only and is not available on mobile.
Why is Deriv not listed on TradingView.com as a broker?
Deriv is not integrated into TradingView.com's broker network. The TradingView partnership covers chart engine licensing only — it does not make Deriv a tradable broker on TradingView.com.
Is charts.deriv.com available in all countries?
charts.deriv.com is accessible in most countries without a Deriv account. Access to actual trading on Deriv's platforms is subject to the broker's country restrictions. Traders in restricted countries can view charts.deriv.com but cannot open a live trading account.

Conclusion

Deriv's TradingView integration is a genuinely capable, free charting tool — the question is whether it fits into a trader's actual workflow.

charts.deriv.com is free, requires no account, and gives access to TradingView-quality charting for Deriv's full asset range. For traders in India, South Africa, Pakistan, and Bangladesh who want serious multi-indicator analysis without paying for a TradingView.com subscription, it is worth using. For MT5 CFD traders, the honest assessment is that the native charts are adequate for execution-focused work, and the browser-tab friction of charts.deriv.com is a real cost in daily trading.

The cTrader plugin on Windows is the one configuration where the integration genuinely adds convenience. For everything else, native charts are the more practical default.

Our take on Synthetic Indices: The TradingView integration makes Deriv's synthetic indices look like real tradable markets — professional charts, real-looking price action. They are not. They are RNG-generated products with a built-in house edge. The chart quality does not change the product structure. Use Deriv for MT5 forex and CFD. Treat Synthetic Indices as entertainment.
