I would like to know if it is possible in TradingView to backtest multiple Symbol in the same script ? In other words, stand out from the symbol applied to the graphic.

I found how to call other symbol with the commande security, but after to place order, i don't succeed to stand out the symbol applied to the graph.

Thank you !

Strategy orders are only generated on the chart's symbol. You can use security() to fetch information from other tickers to use in your calcs, but orders cannot be executed on them.

  • Why not adding the features? First off; the max number of charts is 8 so it means we cannot go beyond 8 symbols trading. Not sure what is the holdup! – Mahdi Apr 11 '21 at 16:44

    The request for the feature is already logged, but it is not in the pipeline yet, so there's no ETA. – PineCoders-LucF Apr 11 '21 at 20:57

you can't use only one symbol in the chart. you can use security function to fetch data from another symbolss up to 40 symbols.
