# Quick Start On TradingView

Use this page after [TradingView access](/indicators/aims-box/docs/tradingview/access.md) for **AIMS Box** (**Free**, **Advanced**, or **PRO**).

**Prefer a walkthrough?** See [Quick start on TradingView (tutorial)](/indicators/aims-box/docs/tutorials/aims-box-tradingview-quick-start.md).

Review prompts, not orders

AIMS Box marks **setups to review**. It does not place trades, size positions, or replace your trading plan. Not financial advice.

## Before You Start[​](#before-you-start "Direct link to Before You Start")

Confirm:

* You are signed in to the **TradingView username** that matches your grant (**Advanced** / **PRO** / Super).
* You can open the matching script below (**Free** needs no invite; paid editions must not show an invite-only block).
* You have a chart open on the symbol and timeframe you intend to review.

## 1. Add The Script To Your Chart[​](#1-add-the-script-to-your-chart "Direct link to 1. Add The Script To Your Chart")

Open the edition that matches your license:

[AIMS Box TV — Free](https://www.tradingview.com/script/lZcuzCL0-AIMS-Box-TV-Trade-in-line-with-the-Structure-of-the-Market/)

Public structure teaser — last fractal box + optional pip-limit tint. No Setup 1/2 lifecycle.

[AIMS Box Advanced](https://www.tradingview.com/script/fMQJdDnP-iTradeAIMS-AIMS-Box-Advanced/)

Invite-only — full box lifecycle with visible Gator lines, mouth ribbon, settings, and trend candle tint (legacy all-in-one).

[AIMS Box PRO](https://www.tradingview.com/script/nMLzwT6F-iTradeAIMS-AIMS-Box-PRO/)

Invite-only Pro — fractal boxes, MT5-parity Setup 1/2 lifecycle, invisible Gator/Purple bias, ALMA option, volatility cloud, volume anomaly + ATR box gate, dashboard, PineConnector pending-order alerts.

[AIMS Box Super — Invite / publish pending](/indicators/aims-box/docs/tradingview/box-super.md)

Structure-only Setup 1/2 lane — invisible Gator/Purple bias validation, no gator lines, no candle tint. Open the Box Super docs while the TradingView URL is pending.

[AIMS Liquidity Box — Invite / publish pending](/indicators/aims-box/docs/tradingview/liquidity-box.md)

Box Super structure plus Support & Resistance zones and ★ S\&R confluence. Open the Liquidity Box docs while the TradingView URL is pending.

1. Select **Add to chart** (or **Use on chart**).
2. Confirm the chart lists **AIMS Box TV**, **AIMS Box Advanced**, **AIMS Box Pro**, or the exact name from your grant.
3. If TradingView asks you to sign in, use the same username that received access.

## 2. Leave Defaults For The First Session[​](#2-leave-defaults-for-the-first-session "Direct link to 2. Leave Defaults For The First Session")

For your first look, avoid changing settings until you can read:

* Grey **AIMS Box** / fractal zones on the chart.
* On **Advanced** / **PRO**: setup state labels such as **Setup 1 · Ready**, entry references (**BuyStop** / **SellStop**), and **Blocked** when filters reject a setup.
* On **Advanced**: visible Gator lines / ribbon / candle tint (legacy all-in-one).
* On **PRO**: clean chart with invisible bias, optional cloud / dashboard.
* On **Free**: last fractal box structure (no Setup 1/2 lifecycle).

Open **Settings** (gear on the indicator) only if you need to reduce visual density or move labels.

## 3. Read Your First Chart[​](#3-read-your-first-chart "Direct link to 3. Read Your First Chart")

![AIMS Box on TradingView — Setup 1 Ready with grey box and BuyStop reference](/img/indicators/aims-box/tradingview/setup-1-ready-chart.png)

Setup 1 · Ready — same lifecycle concept as MT5 Box tab reads (Advanced / PRO).

When a setup appears (**Advanced** / **PRO** / setup-capable editions):

1. Wait for the relevant candle to close.
2. Check upper and lower box levels.
3. Check whether the box is tight enough for your risk plan.
4. Decide whether the setup matches your trading plan.

## 4. If You Also Use The Confluence Suite[​](#4-if-you-also-use-the-confluence-suite "Direct link to 4. If You Also Use The Confluence Suite")

On MT5, Banana and Wave context lives on the same dashboard. On TradingView, AIMS Box is a **standalone script** — add Banana TV or review MT5 suite docs separately if you want full-stack confluence.
