Limitations on this timeframe notification

This pop-up notification occurs when FlowMap is used on 1 minute timeframe. Due to TradingView related limitations Intrabar Heatmap, Value Area and POC can only be used on 1 minute timeframe with Premium or higher TradingView plans.



If you have a Premium or higher tier plan on TradingView, enable functionality on 1 minute timeframe by heading to FlowMap settings and enabling "I have Premium plan"



This script uses seconds-based timeframes which are only available to users with Premium or higher-tier plans

This error occurs when "I have Premium plan" is enabled under settings and user does not have a Premium or higher plan. FlowMap will attempt to use most accurate data to construct orderflow, which in lower timeframes is seconds-based timeframes, available for paid plans only.

To resolve the error, simply disable "I have Premium plan". Note that limitations on 1 minute timeframe will apply, see "Limitations on this timeframe notification" discussed above.


Memory limit error

While vast majority of the time not an issue, sometimes you might encounter a "Memory limit exceeded" error. Most of our tools are heavily packed with features, taking a toll on computation resources provided by Tradingview.


Often these issues are resolved by simply switching to the same symbol provided by another broker. For example, when viewing EURUSD by FXCM, change to EURUSD by OANDA:

Change this EUR/USD chart

To an alternative EUR/USD CHART


Calculation time out

Similarly to memory limit error, some of our more computation intensive tools occasionally hit a calculation time out error. This error is simply fixed by removing indicator and adding it to chart again or changing any setting in the indicator settings. This will cause a recalculation in the indicator, allowing another try for successful loading.


Inaccurate Internal Flow on stock market charts

By default, TradingView displays stock market charts only for regular trading hours (when stock market is open).

This means Internal Flow will not have access to all volume data available beyond regular trading hours to determine what "unusual volume" means.

On lower timeframe charts, this leads to sparse and inaccurate data.

Illustration of inaccurate Internal Flow data in FlowMap when using regular trading hours on stock market charts.

Switching to electronic trading hours

Internal Flow will work properly once we switch "Regular trading hours" to "Electronic trading hours" on TradingView's chart settings.

  1. Open any stock chart, right click canvas and select Settings

  2. Navigate to "Data modification" under Symbol tab

  3. Select "Electronic trading hours"

  4. Click "Ok"

Internal Flow now has access to all volume data on the stock market chart and is represented accurately.
