About Candlemark: Draw & Capture for TradingView
Candlemark is the pen your charts were missing. A fast, minimal drawing layer that sits on top of TradingView — built for traders who teach, journal, review, or share setups. Works on Mac and Windows; no desktop app to install.
Press one shortcut and the chart becomes your canvas. Press Esc and it's a chart again.
✏️ DRAW LIKE YOU THINK
- Pen, highlighter, arrows, text, horizontal and vertical lines
- Trend lines that behave like TradingView's — right-click to switch between a segment, a ray, or a line extended both ways
- Select, move, resize (8 handles), recolour, duplicate, undo/redo. Right-click any drawing for quick actions
- Esc always brings you back to a normal, usable chart
📈 TRADING TOOLS IN ONE DRAG
- Long / Short position: click your entry, drag to your target. Drag up for Long, down for Short. Stop is placed at 1:2 and every edge is draggable
- Fibonacci retracement with the golden pocket (0.618–0.65) and 1.272 / 1.618 targets. Turn on "Explain each line" and every level tells you what it's for
- Zones: Demand, Supply, Fair Value Gap, Order Block, Liquidity — or a plain box in your colour. Labels are clean text by default (add a background with one click), can sit above / inside / below, left / middle / right, or be dragged anywhere
- Double-click any box and type exactly where you clicked — BOS, CHoCH, notes — just like TradingView
- Stamps: BUY, SELL, Entry, TP, SL, BOS, CHoCH, FVG, OB, Liquidity
🧮 RISK CALCULATOR
- Balance + risk % + stop loss → position size in units or lots (crypto, forex, gold, silver, stocks)
- Entry pre-filled from the symbol and price in the tab title
- Add a trade card to the chart, or copy a ready-to-post signal with your own risk-warning footer
📸 SCREENSHOTS, LIGHTSHOT-STYLE
- One keypress copies the visible chart to your clipboard
- Drag an area, then Copy, Download or Edit right there
- Full-page capture for regular websites
- Built-in editor: arrows, shapes, text, numbered steps, blur / pixelate, crop, PNG/JPG export, optional watermark
🧑🏫 BUILT FOR TEACHING
- Whiteboard: one click opens a blank board over the page — white, grid, dark or chalk. Minimize keeps your notes; close clears them. Your chart drawings are never touched
- Laser pointer, spotlight, click highlights
- Fading ink that clears itself after 3, 5, 10 or any number of seconds
🎛️ A TOOLBAR THAT FITS YOU
- Every button can live on the toolbar, under "More", or be switched off
- Drag the corner to resize: shorter and the overflow moves under More by itself; wider and it reflows into 2 or 3 columns
- Minimize to a small button you can drag anywhere, or close it and bring it back from the Chrome toolbar icon
- Works on any screen size, from a laptop to an ultrawide
🔒 PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- No account. No analytics. No servers. Candlemark makes zero network requests
- Drawings and settings stay on your device, saved per symbol
- Runs only on tradingview.com unless you choose to allow other sites
Good to know: Candlemark draws on top of the screen, not inside TradingView's chart engine. When you scroll or zoom the chart it reminds you that drawings may no longer line up (Clear / Hide / Keep).
Default shortcuts (change them at chrome://extensions/shortcuts):
Alt+Shift+D draw ↔ use chart · Alt+Shift+H hide/show drawings · Alt+Shift+S copy screenshot · Ctrl/⌘+Shift+E select area
While drawing: G position · F fib · R zone · B stamp · W whiteboard · V select · C calculator · Esc back to normal
