Single-screen workspace

See everything you care about without leaving the chair

Trade Ideas puts your whole workspace on one screen. The Channel Bar, Alerts, Top Lists, charts and Holly all run on the same live data, so the stocks that trigger alerts are the stocks you chart. Set up the layout the way you like it.

  • Channel Bar expert layouts — 40+ ready-made channels with alerts, Top Lists, Multi-Strategy windows and charts, so you never start from a blank screen.
  • Idea Surfing — the top stocks from your open Top Lists rotate onto your charts about every 7 seconds, so you see what your scans are finding.
  • Alert events painted on the chart — a live play-by-play of what the stock is doing, which a bar-only chart cannot show.
  • Stay focused on what matters — Window Specific Filters, PiP context, and the Holly AI Assistant keep you focused on the stocks that are moving.
Chart AI Assistant

Your on-chart research partner explains what is happening

Trade Ideas includes an AI Assistant inside the chart that tells you all that is happening on the chart, from key levels to alerts and patterns. You never leave the symbol. Holly can also set up Alerts and Top Lists from plain English.

Holly AI Assistant

Describe a scan in plain English

Holly AI Assistant builds live Streaming Alert and Top List windows from your description, so you do not have to configure every filter by hand.

Holly AI Assistant

  • Financial strength in desk language — the numbers that matter, in plain view.
  • Peer comparison — see how the stock stacks up against similar companies.

Automated patterns

Detect actionable chart patterns in real time across the universe

Trade Ideas real-time chart pattern recognition scans the whole market for you, so you don’t redraw lines on one chart at a time. It uses live alerts and filters and refreshes on its own. Double Tops, Wedges, Head & Shoulders, Flags and Channels show up as they form. Chart buy/sell trigger automation lives on TI Wave — automated technical analysis.

  • Scan the whole market, not one chart — Trade Ideas scans the whole market for patterns, so you do not have to find them one chart at a time.
  • Support & resistance as events — breaks, bounces, failed breaks as named alerts (see Learning Center zones).
  • Remove guesswork — patterns are confirmed by objective rules, not by redrawing lines until they look right.
  • Full CPR page — Chart Pattern Recognition has every pattern.

Collaboration

  • Price Alerts on both timeframes — your levels show up in both panes.
  • Visible-range % and metrics strip — see Float, Market Cap, Volume and Days to Cover in the symbol window.
  • Learning Center multi-TF — Multi-Timeframe Analysis · live feature: PiP Charting.
