Layouts and Charts

TradeNet Terminal lets you build your workspace the way you want it. Multiple charts, custom arrangements, saved layouts. Here is how to set it up.

Creating a Layout

A layout is a saved workspace configuration. It stores your chart arrangement, selected symbols, timeframes, and any indicators or overlays you have active. To create a new layout:
  1. Click the Layout menu in the top toolbar.
  2. Select New Layout.
  3. Give it a name. Use something descriptive. “BTC Scalping” is better than “Layout 1”.
Your layout starts with a single chart. You can add more from here.

Adding Charts

You can run multiple charts in a single layout. Each chart operates independently with its own symbol, timeframe, and overlays. To add a chart:
  1. Click the + button in the layout toolbar.
  2. Choose the chart type (candlestick, footprint, heatmap, etc.).
  3. The new chart appears in your workspace.
Each chart renders on the GPU independently. Adding charts does not degrade performance the way browser-based terminals do. The rendering pipeline handles it.

Arranging Your Workspace

Drag charts to rearrange them. Resize by pulling the edges or dividers between panels. Common setups:
  • Two-panel. Heatmap on the left, candlestick chart on the right. Both on the same symbol. The heatmap shows you the target. The candlestick shows you the price action getting there.
  • Three-panel. Heatmap, candlestick, and order book side by side. Full context for execution.
  • Multi-symbol. BTC, ETH, and SOL charts stacked. Watch correlations and divergences in real time.
  • Multi-timeframe. Same symbol on 1m, 5m, and 1h. Drill down from macro to micro without switching tabs.
There is no fixed grid. Place charts wherever they make sense for your workflow.

Switching Symbols

To change the symbol on a chart:
  1. Click the symbol selector at the top of the chart.
  2. Type or search for the symbol you want (e.g., BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT).
  3. Select the exchange or view aggregated data across all supported exchanges.
Symbol changes are instant. The chart pulls data from the server and renders immediately. No loading screens.

Switching Timeframes

Click the timeframe selector on the chart toolbar. Available timeframes range from 1s tick charts to monthly candles. The chart reloads with the new timeframe in place. You can also use keyboard shortcuts:
  • 1 through 9 for minute-based timeframes
  • H for hourly
  • D for daily
  • W for weekly

Saving and Loading Layouts

Layouts save automatically as you make changes. You can also manually save with Ctrl+S (Windows) or Cmd+S (macOS). To load a saved layout:
  1. Click the Layout menu.
  2. Select the layout you want from the list.
  3. Your workspace switches instantly.
Layouts are synced to your account. Switch machines and your workspace follows you.

Layout Limits

  • Free plan: 1 saved layout. You can modify it as much as you want, but you cannot save multiple configurations.
  • Pro plan: Unlimited saved layouts. Build different workspaces for different strategies, symbols, or market conditions. Switch between them as needed.
If you are on the free plan and need more than one layout, upgrading to Pro unlocks this along with all other Pro features.

Chart Settings

Each chart has its own settings panel. Right-click the chart or click the gear icon to access:
  • Colors. Customize candle colors, background, grid lines, and overlay colors.
  • Overlays. Toggle liquidation bubbles, volume profile, funding rate, and other data overlays.
  • Scale. Switch between linear and logarithmic price scale.
  • Crosshair. Configure crosshair behavior and displayed data.
Settings are saved per chart within your layout. Each chart can look and behave differently.

Tips

  • Set up one layout for each strategy you trade. Keep them focused. A scalping layout does not need weekly charts.
  • Put the heatmap where you can always see it. It is the highest-signal tool in the terminal.
  • Use the multi-timeframe setup when you are unsure about direction. Higher timeframes show the structure. Lower timeframes show the entry.
  • Name your layouts clearly. You will build more of them than you expect.
