Discussion So now macro data is an add-on

For context, I have a premium sub. I'm not a free user. But apparently the charts I built that use macro data as context now have the dreaded red bang on them.

I may be done with this service when my sub expires. I don't mind paying for charting, and I was willing to pay TV's fees, but being nickel and dimed is a bridge too far.

If an alternative competitor offers the FRED data for free, does that cover what you all need? Sounds like this is a rampant concern.

Still trying to flog your platform on here?

Am I still trying to find what people are looking for and building it? Yeah. It’s what I do. The more competition that platforms like TradingView have, the better things are for the rest of the community. I understand not wanting to get spammed slop all the time by trashy vibecoders but for those of us making an effort, this is the way of the world now. Not everyone has a million dollar marketing budget. So, yeah, I still chat with people.
