What is TVC in "TVC:UKX" symbol on tradingview?
Matthew Harrington
What is meaning of TVC in "TVC:UKX", "TVC:DAX" symbol on TradingView? On other Pairs it denotes the broker providing that quotes. But in this case I don't find any broker or Exchange named after "TVC". So what is this TVC on tradingview?

I have also tried to understand where this data is coming from, I guess an email to support would answer the question.
A guess would be TradingViewCQG (meaning data from the vendor CQG)...

On our platform, you can find instruments with the TVC: prefix. It doesn’t indicate any exchange, but stands for TradingView Charts and means that the data is calculated by TradingView. We take the data for calculations from different sources and after processing, display it on charts for free in real-time.
Symbols under the TVC: prefix are usually CFDs and instruments based on other popular instruments, such as indices and commodities: US dollar index, S&P 500, gold, etc. Even though the charts of the original instruments and the TVC charts look similar, comparing them would be incorrect because they have different data sources.
All available TVC symbols can be found in the symbol search: just type the TVC: prefix in the search field:
