The Official Charts by TRADEway Quick Start Guide
Team TRADEway • July 15, 2024
You’re all excited about learning to trade, and then it’s time to…learn a new charting software? It can be intimidating learning a new charting software from the ground up, but you can do it! We’re going to walk you through the five step process we recommend to traders learning how to use Charts by TRADEway for the first time.
Step 1: Check Out TRADEway’s YouTube Channel
Did you know that TRADEway has tons of videos on our YouTube channel all about Charts by TRADEway? Subscribe to our channel so you never miss a new Charts video. We have an entire playlist dedicated to Charts by TRADEway on our YouTube channel, and we are always adding more videos.
Step 2: Watch the “Charts by TRADEway - Session 1: Quick Start Guide” Video
There are four videos we suggest as a minimum that will help you get started with Charts. We suggest watching one section at a time, and stopping the video to practice in Charts before moving on. If you'll perform the tasks you will learn better than just watching it.
The first one is our Session 1: Quick Start Guide video. In this video, you’ll learn how to access Charts by TRADEway, how the platform is laid out generally, and where you can find resources to help you get the most out of the platform.
Step 3: Watch the “Charts by TRADEway - Session 2: Trade Account Set Up” Video

The next video we recommend you watch is our Session 2: Trading Account Setup video. In this video we’ll show you how to create a virtual account, how to enter a trade, as well as how to add a real account (as opposed to a virtual account).
Step 4: Watch the “Charts by TRADEway - Session 3: Getting Around” Video

Next we recommend you watch our Session 3: Getting Around video. This video is all about how to navigate around the platform. We’ll also cover some of the research elements available in Charts, where you can access information about your brokerage account within the platform, as well as the trading journal feature.
Step 5: Watch the “Charts by TRADEway - Session 4: Trade Management” Video
Finally, we recommend you watch the Session 4: Trade Management video. In this video we’ll cover stock trade management. We’ll cover staging orders, what happens with a working order, monitoring your current positions, being able to see past trades, and then we’ll talk more about the power of journaling your trades.
We’re excited for you to get started with Charts by TRADEway! Our platform has so many incredible features, and we are hard at work adding more. Our goal is to make it an incredibly effective and intuitive platform to use for our traders. You can reach out for support at any time at support@tradeway.com if you have further questions.

The long-term investing industry hasn’t really changed that much in the last 50 years as far as their message goes: ”Don’t worry about bear market crashes, just stay the course…” Many people argue that the average person on the street would be way better off if they just bought the S&P 500 and held it rather than trying to buy and sell individual stocks themselves. Well, that may be absolutely true if you have zero trading skillsets. But if you do have the kind of trading skillsets that TRADEway teaches, then the old line philosophy of buy and hold isn’t the best strategy for you. In today’s episode we’re talking about some common myths that buy-and-hold-ers propagate. Let’s get into this important discussion…

It turns out there are three common reasons why trades stop working. Once you learn these three reasons it will be easier for you to analyze your past trades and figure out what went wrong.
