Why can’t I share anything publicly on TradingView?

Right now, you're one of our 30 million basic account holders and that means you can support our community by liking Ideas or following your favorite authors, as well as posting private Ideas and messages.

However, if you wish to start actively sharing your own analysis, building a following, and meeting others in our community, then please consider upgrading to a paid plan to do so. We apply this criteria to ensure that contributors have some prior level of commitment to the platform – a move we’ve found successful in weeding out scammers and spammers and increasing the overall usefulness of our community discussions. 

We're people who believe in preparation as the best way of maximizing life's returns – people look first, then leap – and we hope you'll join us in building the most vibrant and useful community of self-directed traders and investors in the world.
