The ChartSkip widget — always on top of your screen
Backtesting 100 days? That's 40 minutes of clicking through TradingView's date picker. Per strategy. It adds up fast.
Every time you open the date picker your analytical focus resets. You're doing admin instead of reading charts.
Trading Asia, London and NY? That's three date picker clicks per day, every day, for every strategy you test.
How it works
FOUR STEPS.
THEN NEVER AGAIN.
Set it up once. Use it every backtesting session from then on.
Download & install ChartSkip
After subscribing you get a download link. Open the app and it appears as a floating strip on your screen. Grant Accessibility permission when prompted (this is how it clicks buttons for you).
Configure your sessions
Open Settings, choose 1–3 sessions, set the name and time for each. Asia at 02:00, London at 08:00, NY at 13:00, or whatever sessions you trade. Fully customisable.
Press Begin on TradingView
Click Begin, pick your start date, choose your first session. ChartSkip finds the Replay button and Select Date automatically and sets everything up for you.
Click a session button to skip
Each button shows the exact date it will jump to. Click it and ChartSkip handles the date picker in the background. Same day if the session hasn't passed, next trading day if it has.
Features
BUILT FOR
SERIOUS BACKTESTING.
Up to 3 custom sessions
Configure Asia, London and NY, or any sessions you trade. Each gets its own button with a custom name and time. One click per session, every time.
Smart next-occurrence logic
ChartSkip always finds the next occurrence of each session after your last jump. Same day if it hasn't passed, next trading day if it has. Never goes backwards.
Date shown before you click
Every session button shows the exact date it will jump to above the session name, so you always know where you are going before you click.
Floating widget
ChartSkip sits as a small floating strip on your screen, always accessible. Drag it anywhere, out of the way of your charts but ready when you need it.
Smart scheduling
Skip weekends automatically for forex and indices, or switch to 24/7 mode for crypto and instruments that trade on weekends. One toggle in settings.
Your charts stay private
ChartSkip only interacts with TradingView's buttons and never reads, stores or transmits anything from your charts, strategies or account.
Mac & Windows
One subscription covers both platforms. Run it on your Mac at home and your Windows trading PC at the same time.
Fully customisable
Name your sessions anything: "Scalp", "Morning", "Session 1". Change times any time from the settings panel. Light theme built in.
Works on any instrument
EURUSD, NQ, XAUUSD, BTCUSD, US30: if it's on TradingView Replay, ChartSkip works with it. No setup per instrument needed.
"I backtest 6 hours a day across Asia and London sessions. This saves me 20+ minutes every single session. Sounds small, adds up to hours every week."
"The three session buttons are exactly what I needed. I trade London open and NY open every day. Two clicks and I'm there. The date label on each button is a nice touch too."
"Was sceptical at first. But it just works. Finds the Select Date button on its own, fills everything in, done. I don't even think about it any more."

FAQ
QUESTIONS.
ChartSkip is a lightweight desktop app that sits as a floating strip on your screen. When you click a session button, it automatically finds TradingView's Select Date button, fills in the next date and time for that session, and clicks Select, all without you touching the mouse or keyboard.
