Cluttered charts can kill your focus. Technical analysis often goes out the window when your TradingView chart becomes a digital mess of overlapping indicator values and labels.

A clean chart isn’t just about making things look pretty; it’s absolutely crucial for clear analysis, sharper decision-making, and ultimately, a more confident trading style. I know, I know. This sounds too hoity-toity for just chart settings, but trust me, it’s necessary.

Let’s declutter your workspace. One step at a time.

How to hide (or disable) indicator labels on TradingView charts?

Indicator labels are the text you see on the right-hand price scale. For example, if you have the RSI enabled, you might see something like RSI: 54.27 floating next to your candles. Over time, especially with multiple indicators, these components pile up and cover the scale. Here’s how to remove them:

Step 1:

Log in to your TradingView account and go to a chart layout.
