By Impran M N

If custom indicators, colors, or layout tweaks have left your TradingView charts looking cluttered, it's easy to reset everything back to the original default appearance. This guide covers restoring default candlestick colors and sizes, removing indicators you've added over time, and getting back to the default timeframe and layout. The same steps apply on both desktop and mobile, so it works no matter which version you use most.

01Remove added indicators

Clear out any custom indicators you've applied to the chart so you're starting from a clean base before resetting other visual settings.

02Reset the candlestick style

Restore the default candlestick colors and sizes if custom styling has changed how your chart looks compared to the original setup.

03Restore default timeframes and layout

Reset the chart's timeframe and overall layout back to TradingView's standard defaults.

04Save or start a fresh layout

Decide whether to save this reset layout for future use or start an entirely new layout from scratch, depending on your workflow.
