# How To Import/Export Tradingview Strategy Settings

{% hint style="info" %}
For this solution you will need to use Google Chrome, as the tool we use is a Chrome Extension.
{% endhint %}

### Step 1

Open the [Tradingview Assistant](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tradingview-assistant/pfbdfjaonemppanfnlmliafffahlohfg).

Then click the "Add To Chrome" button.

### Step 2

Now, if you open up the strategy settings in Tradingview, at the bottom, you will see an export and import button.

If you click on the right button (export), you will download a CSV file that contains data for the strategy settings.

{% hint style="info" %}
DO NOT OPEN the csv file as it might be corrupted and you won't be able to import it.
{% endhint %}

### Step 3

Now, you can send the downloaded file to others. To import the file, click on the left button (import) and choose the file you would like to import.

Wait until the import finishes.

{% hint style="info" %}
Please be aware that if you don't see the results you expected, that might happen because of the following issues:
{% endhint %}

* Check the timeframe, and trading pair
* Check the transaction fee setting, as it is not copied by the extension
* You might not have the same Tradingview plan as the one who exported, so you may see more or less data.

#### Congratulations, now you can import and export settings.
