Since I don't want to create an account I tried it without logging in. With the URL: https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol=INDEX%3ABTCUSD

It looks like the element doesn't load before you try to access it.

You have already used explicit wait in your code. You should also try it for the data_container element instead of manual sleep.

Try the following :

# Navigate to a chart page (e.g., btc chart)
driver.get("https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol=INDEX%3ABTCUSD")

# Example: Extract data from a visible container
try:
    print('Connected to chart')
    data_container = wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[contains(@class, 'chart-container single-visible top-full-width-chart active')]")))
    print("Extracted Data:")
    print(data_container.text)
except Exception as e:
    print("Failed to extract data:", e)
