GameMaker Language (GML) vs. Pine Script vs. Python vs. TradingView Comparison Chart

Pine Script® is TradingView’s programming language. It allows traders to create their own trading tools and run them on our servers. We designed Pine Script® as a lightweight, yet powerful, language for developing indicators and strategies that you can then backtest. Most of TradingView’s built-in indicators are written in Pine Script®, and our thriving community of Pine Script® programmers has published more than 100,000 community scripts. It’s our explicit goal to keep Pine Script® accessible and easy to understand for the broadest possible audience. Pine Script® is cloud-based and therefore different from client-side programming languages. While we likely won’t develop Pine Script® into a full-fledged language, we do constantly improve it and are always happy to consider requests for new features. Because each script uses computational resources in the cloud, we must impose limits in order to share these resources fairly among our users.

TradingView is an innovative venture by a group of developers and traders with experience of building trading software, who share a vision that trading technology should be easy, powerful and accessible to everyone.

TradingView is also a social community for traders to interact and learn, share ideas and work together to improve their skills. Unique and simple way to share live charts instantly with technical analysis ideas brings traders together and it's a first step to having a full trading platform in a web browser.
