You may specify Charting library widget parameters when calling its constructor. E.g., your call may look like

new TradingView.widget({
    symbol: 'A',
    interval: 'D',
    timezone: "America/New_York",
    container_id: "tv_chart_container",
    locale: "ru",
    datafeed: new Datafeeds.UDFCompatibleDatafeed("https://demo_feed.tradingview.com")
});

Find full supported parameters list below. Please remember that changing those parameters after chart is initialized does not work. If you want to change the state of a chart after it was initialized, use [[Widget methods|Widget-Methods]] instead.

Properties marked :chart: are available in [[Trading Terminal]] only.

symbol, interval [mandatory]

Initial symbol & interval of your chart. Format of interval is described in another [[article|Resolution]].

timeframe

Sets initial timeframe for the chart. Timeframe is period of bars that will be loaded and shown on a screen.
Valid timeframe is a number with letter D for days and M for months.

container_id [mandatory]

id attribute of a DOM element you want to contain the widget.

datafeed [mandatory]

JavaScript object implementing appropriate interface ([[JS API|JS-Api]]) to feed the chart width data.

Remark: if you want the chart to occupy all the available space, do not use '100%' in those field. Use fullscreen parameter instead (see below). It's because of issues with DOM nodes resizing in different browsers.

fullscreen <false>

Boolean value showing whether chart should occupy all the available space in the window.

autosize <false>

Boolean value showing whether chart should occupy all the available space in the container and resize with it is resized. This parameter is introduced in version 1.3.
