Check if a Tradingview username is taken

What we check on Tradingview

Standard tier - checked on every full lookup

Tradingview is checked from a username. The response says whether that handle exists on Tradingview - registered: true or registered: false - with the moment that was established in checkedAt. An email address on its own cannot reach Tradingview; if you only have an email, its local part is tried as a handle and any hit is labelled as derived, never counted as a confirmed match.

Tradingview is checked on every full lookup (?wait=true or streaming), alongside every other platform. It is not in the sub-second instant subset, which is reserved for the highest-value platforms for each input type.

If Tradingview blocks the check, times out, or answers ambiguously, it is omitted from results[] entirely rather than returned as registered: false. Absence from the response means "unconfirmed", never "no account".

Who checks Tradingview accounts

Identity providers, link-in-bio pages and everyday utilities are checked because almost everyone has an account on at least one of them. An email with no presence even here is unusual, which makes these platforms a useful baseline in any footprint.

Inputs Tradingview accepts

• Username: send the handle as query. Tradingview is checked for that exact handle - useful when a person reuses the same name across platforms.

Tradingview lookup FAQ

Can I check a phone number on Tradingview?

Not directly. Tradingview can be reached from username. Phone numbers are checked on the messaging and social apps that sign people up by phone.

How fast is a Tradingview check?

Tradingview is checked on a full lookup, which streams results as they land - the first matches arrive in around 60 milliseconds and the whole set typically completes in a few seconds.

What happens if Tradingview blocks the check?

Tradingview is left out of the response. We never report a platform we could not confirm as "not registered" - a missing platform means unconfirmed, not absent.

Does the API return the Tradingview account details?

No. You get whether an account exists for the input you sent, and when that was established. No profile contents, photos, followers or private data are collected or returned.
