Integrating a TradingView chart into a Python GUI application requires embedding the TradingView widget within a GUI framework like Tkinter, PyQt, or Kivy. Since TradingView provides embeddable charts through HTML and JavaScript, you can use a web view in the GUI to load the TradingView widget.

Here’s how to do it using Tkinter and PyQt:

Option 1: Using Tkinter

Prerequisites

1. Install the

   tkhtmlview

   package to enable embedding HTML in Tkinter:

   pip install tkhtmlview
   

Steps

1. Generate the TradingView widget HTML code from their website:

   • Go to TradingView Widget.
   • Customize the chart (symbol, style, interval, etc.) and copy the generated iframe code.

2. Embed it in the Tkinter GUI:

Example Code

import tkinter as tk
from tkhtmlview import HTMLLabel

# Create a basic TradingView widget HTML
tradingview_widget = """

"""

# Create a Tkinter window
root = tk.Tk()
root.title("TradingView Chart")
root.geometry("850x650")

# Embed the TradingView widget in the Tkinter GUI
html_label = HTMLLabel(root, html=tradingview_widget)
html_label.pack(fill="both", expand=True)

root.mainloop()

This will display the TradingView chart in a Tkinter window.

Option 2: Using PyQt

Prerequisites

1. Install PyQt5:

   pip install PyQt5 PyQtWebEngine
   

Steps

1. Use the

   QWebEngineView

   from

   PyQtWebEngine

   to render the TradingView widget.

Example Code

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QMainWindow, QVBoxLayout, QWidget
from PyQt5.QtWebEngineWidgets import QWebEngineView

class TradingViewApp(QMainWindow):
 def __init__(self):
 super().__init__()
 self.setWindowTitle("TradingView Chart")
 self.setGeometry(100, 100, 900, 700)

 # Create a widget to hold the layout
 widget = QWidget()
 layout = QVBoxLayout()

 # Create a web engine view for TradingView widget
 web_view = QWebEngineView()

 # Set the TradingView widget URL
 tradingview_url = (
 "https://s.tradingview.com/widgetembed/?frameElementId=tradingview_12345&symbol=MSFT"
 "&interval=D&symboledit=1&saveimage=1&toolbarbg=f1f3f6&studies=[]&theme=light&style=1"
 "&timezone=Etc%2FUTC&withdateranges=1&hideideas=1&locale=en"
 )
 web_view.setUrl(tradingview_url)

 # Add the web view to the layout
 layout.addWidget(web_view)
 widget.setLayout(layout)

 # Set the widget as the central widget
 self.setCentralWidget(widget)

# Run the application
if __name__ == "__main__":
 app = QApplication([])
 window = TradingViewApp()
 window.show()
 app.exec_()

Notes

1. Dynamic Symbol Changes:

   • To allow symbol changes (e.g., user selects a different stock), modify the iframe URL dynamically in your code.

2. Responsive Design:

   • Ensure the iframe width and height fit well within your GUI window.

3. Local HTML Files:

   • You can save the TradingView widget code as an HTML file and load it into the web view.
