Cant find this element on tradingview
I'm trying to make a program that auto trades for me on tradingview. There is a problem, I need the historical dates, but I can't find the element that contains the date that is being displayed at the time.
I think it's some sort of hovering element, but I have tried to catch it with both sources, network and the element tab in chrome dev tools.
Screenshot of the element: http://prntscr.com/m98gal
Link to chart: https://www.tradingview.com/chart?symbol=SP:SPN
So what I want is that if I hover my mouse on a specific pixel, I want the date that displays element because I will use it in selenium after. Thank you in advance!

When hovering the chart in devtools, I see no highlighting of changed DOM nodes, which means the tooltip is a part of canvas element (confirmed by hiding that element and observing no tooltip), in other words you can't extract it directly without performing OCR.

Try using the raw source data of the chart. It's either in the original HTML or in a separate XHR.

I don't think their API will give me the data... Twitter post: prntscr.com/m991fj

I meant the API used by their page. It doesn't have to be a public API. You need to investigate the requests and the responses and the code that makes them to understand the data. Or maybe it's inside the HTML already. Either way the data is there.
