TradingView vs ChartsPod for Large-Trade Analysis: Feature Coverage

Large-trade analysis needs individual trades and a size threshold. TradingView's order-flow tools reviewed work from intrabar data rather than trade-by-trade prints.

Short answer

TradingView's footprint and CVD documentation describes calculations from intrabar data; the material reviewed doesn't describe a trade-by-trade tape or large-trade markers for crypto. That limits large-trade analysis to candle-level volume. ChartsPod lists a tape and footprint built for order flow on four venues. For large-trade studies, use trade-level data with a threshold scaled to the market, and check whether venues aggregate fills.
