Symphony Partners with TradingView to Enhance Market Data Access and Collaboration

Subscribe to our newsletter

Symphony, the communication and markets technology company, has integrated with TradingView, the market analysis platform. The partnership enables users of the Symphony Messaging platform to access TradingView’s extensive global market data, charts, and news feeds, which span 108 stock exchanges, 46 futures exchanges, 32 forex exchanges, 77 cryptocurrency exchanges, and 100 news and economic data sources.

The integration is designed to improve workflows for financial professionals by streamlining access to market insights and facilitating seamless collaboration. By combining secure messaging with advanced charting tools and data, Symphony aims to enhance decision-making capabilities while ensuring compliance with industry regulations.

TradingTech Insight sat down with Ben Chrnelich, President of Symphony, and Oleg Mukhanov, TradingView’s CEO, to find out more about the partnership.

“Oleg and I met for the first time around this time last year in London,” reflects Chrnelich. “During our discussion, he introduced the concept of TradingView as a robust, global, professional-grade market data platform that was already achieving remarkable success in various sectors. At Symphony, we have a financial markets community of institutional participants who rely on our platform extensively. However, we are always looking to offer this user base—over 600,000 professionals from top trading organisations, exchanges, and asset management firms—more capabilities, better workflows, and richer content. So together, we explored ways to integrate TradingView directly into Symphony, enabling users to access TradingView’s tools and data seamlessly alongside Symphony’s messaging and voice platforms. After a few months of discussions, the Symphony and TradingView product and engineering teams began developing the integrated workflow and I’m pleased to say we successfully launched it to our global community last week.”

“When you look at the trading and investment workflow today, it’s fundamentally the same as it’s always been,” states Mukhanov. “People access data, communicate, make investment decisions, and then execute on those decisions. While technology and tools have evolved, the core workflow remains unchanged. The ‘gold standard’ of this process traditionally includes market data, analysis, news, and communication—everything needed to make informed investment decisions. For decades, this has been dominated by heavyweight platforms with a long-year heritage. However, we felt it was time to introduce a more modern, lightweight solution—one that is web-based, mobile-friendly, and designed for today’s users. This is where the synergy with Symphony became clear. Symphony has an excellent foothold in enterprise and federated communication, while TradingView provides the other key piece: comprehensive market data and analytics tools. What’s more, we both operate on cutting-edge, web-based technology, which made the integration seamless. The result is a solution that brings together secure communication, robust market data, and other relevant modern tools to support the needs of today’s trading and investment professionals.”

The combined functionality is expected to benefit a wide range of users, including trading desks, research teams, and portfolio and risk managers within investment banks, asset management firms, and private wealth institutions. Users will be able to share annotated data visualisations securely via Symphony Messaging, improving both internal and client collaboration. Additionally, Symphony’s Federation product will allow users to share TradingView insights through platforms such as WhatsApp, SMS, WeChat, and LINE, maintaining regulatory compliance across these communication channels.

“From day one, our priority has been to make sure that users of the combined tool enjoy the same seamless experience they’ve come to expect from Symphony and TradingView as standalone platforms,” says Mukhanov. “Now, within Symphony, there’s a TradingView button. You simply click it, and the full TradingView experience is embedded directly into Symphony.”

“We’ve made the integration available to every institution and user on Symphony with access to delayed data,” adds Chrnelich. “For users or firms that wish to provision real-time data, there is an associated cost, consistent with TradingView’s pricing model. And in just the first few weeks, we’ve already seen over 12,000 users engaging with it, so it’s been very well received.”

The integration also provides access to TradingView’s full suite of tools, including technical analysis, screeners, watchlists, alerts, and bar replay functionality, enabling financial professionals to make more informed decisions without the need to switch between platforms.

“This partnership has truly been a collaborative effort, with both companies bringing significant contributions,” concludes Chrnelich. “It’s all about creating value and efficiency for end users, who can now access TradingView’s features alongside Symphony’s messaging, voice, and external compliant communication channels—all within a single platform.”
