Greetings, finance and tech enthusiasts!
We are proud to present TradingView Widget Card v2.0, a version we've been working on for months that will transform your Home Assistant dashboard into a professional trading screen!
Leave the old, basic widgets behind, because this release changes everything from the ground up. Say goodbye to manual YAML editing and hello to unprecedented flexibility and a vast new variety of widgets!
✨ Here Are the Revolutionary New Features!
This isn't just an update; it's a complete rewrite of the card.
While we previously offered only a few basic widgets, we are now unlocking the doors to the entire world of financial data.
1. The Widget Universe Expands: From 5 to 10 Supported Widgets! 🌐
You can now add a much wider array of TradingView widgets to your dashboard. Your previously limited options have now evolved into a professional analysis platform:

- 📅 Economic Calendar: Never miss important economic events and data releases that could impact the markets.
2. Goodbye, YAML: The Revolutionary Visual Editor! 🎨
This is one of our biggest innovations! You no longer have to struggle with complex YAML code.
With the new visual configuration interface, you can easily adjust all settings with a live preview:
- Dynamic Fields: Options change instantly based on the widget type you select.
- Easy Selection: Comfortably choose tickers, currencies, countries, and all other options from dropdown menus.
- Instant Changes: Every adjustment you make (color, size, transparency, etc.) is immediately reflected on your card.
3. Limitless Customization Options 🛠️
Every widget is now far more flexible and personalizable. Here are some of your new customization powers:
- Detailed Settings for Heatmaps:
Professional settings like:- Block Size (Market Cap, Volume, etc.)
- Block Color (Daily Change, Performance, etc.)
- Grouping (Sector, Asset Class, etc.)
- Advanced Display Modes:
Different display modes such as "Adaptive" and "Compact" for Ticker Tape and News widgets. - Multi-Language Support:
You can now use the card in over 20 languages, including English! - Flexible Sizing:
Achieve a perfect fit for your dashboard by setting the height and width in pixels (px) or as a percentage (%).
