Shortcuts
All chart keyboard and mouse shortcuts in one place.
Shortcuts act on the chart that has keyboard focus. Click a chart first, especially in a multi-chart layout where they target the active cell.
Press ? at any time to open the in-app shortcuts panel. On this page, Mod means Ctrl on Windows and ⌘ on Mac.
Symbols and timeframes
The chart treats bare typing as a command. There is no need to click a search box first:
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| Type a letter | Open Symbol Search with your input |
| Type a digit | Open the timeframe field with that digit entered |
Timeframe entry accepts the same formats as the timeframe field in the topbar: 15 is 15 minutes (a bare number is minutes), 4h is 4 hours, D is a day, 3M is 3 months.
Navigation and scale
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
0 | Fit content to the viewport |
Alt+L | Toggle logarithmic scale |
Alt+P | Toggle percent scale |
Mod+Z / Mod+Y | Undo / redo |
Undo/redo covers chart actions such as drawings. If a drag went wrong, Mod+Z beats redrawing.
Drawing
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| Hold Alt | Radial wheel of your favorite drawing tools |
Alt+T | Trend line |
Alt+H | Horizontal line |
Alt+V | Vertical line |
| Shift while drawing | Lock line angles to 45° increments |
| Shift+click empty chart | Start the measure ruler |
| Middle-click a drawing | Delete it |
The radial wheel is the one to learn first: hold Alt and your favorite drawing tools appear around the cursor, so you never leave the chart to switch tools. Curate your favorites and it covers everything the three fixed line shortcuts don't. See Drawings.
Pine editor
These shortcuts act in the Pine editor, rather than on the chart. Click inside the editor first.
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
Mod+S | Save the current script |
Mod+K, then I | Create a new script |
Saving a script is separate from workspace autosave. If saving fails, preserve your code with Copy the code and follow Saving troubleshooting.
Mouse and context menus
Right-clicking different regions of the chart opens different menus. The axis menus are the fastest route to scale and time zone settings:
| Action | Result |
|---|---|
| Right-click the chart | Settings, remove indicators, and more |
| Right-click the price axis | Scale mode (regular, percent, indexed to 100, log, invert) |
| Right-click the time axis | Time zone |
| Double-click a layout splitter | Even the split between cells |
