How to login within Tradingview site using Selenium and Python

I'm new to Python. To enter the Tradingview.com site with Selenium library.
I wrote the following code and used Xpath and CSS selector to give the address, and the Click method, but it does not work properly. Has anyone solved this problem?
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.firefox import GeckoDriverManager
driver = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=GeckoDriverManager().install())
longInfo = ["xxx.gmail.com", "11"]
try:
driver.get("https://www.tradingview.com/#signin")
driver.set_page_load_timeout(20)
driver.maximize_window()
# click email Button for logging page
driver.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[7]/div/div[2]/div/div/div/div/div/div/div[1]/div[4]/div/span").click()
time.sleep(5)
driver.find_element_by_css_selector(
"#email-signin__user-name-input__e07a4b49-2f94-4b3e-a3f8-934a5744fe02").send_keys(longInfo[0])
driver.find_element_by_css_selector(
"#email-signin__password-input__e07a4b49-2f94-4b3e-a3f8-934a5744fe02").send_keys(longInfo[1])
# click sign in Button
driver.find_element_by_xpath(
"/html/body/div[7]/div/div[2]/div/div/div/div/div/div/form/div[5]/div[2]/button/span[2]").click()
input("type for exit")
driver.quit()
except Exception as e:
print(e)
driver.quit()

It seems the locator you have used its dynamic, you need to identify the element with better approach.
Its required synchronization time while navigating.
Use explicit wait and wait for element to be clickable.
longInfo = ["xxx.gmail.com", "11"]
driver.get("https://www.tradingview.com/#signin")
wait=WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//span[text()='Email']"))).click()
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "[name='username']"))).send_keys(longInfo[0])
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "[name='password']"))).send_keys(longInfo[1])
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[.//span[contains(., 'Sign in')]]"))).click()
Use following libraries.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

These values of the id attribute:
email-signin__user-name-input__e07a4b49-2f94-4b3e-a3f8-934a5744fe02
email-signin__password-input__e07a4b49-2f94-4b3e-a3f8-934a5744fe02
are dynamically generated and would change everytime you access the webpage afresh. Instead you need to use locator strategies based on static attributes.
Solution
To login within Trading View website you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use the following locator strategies:
driver.get("https://www.tradingview.com/#signin")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//span[text()='Email']"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#name='username']"))).send_keys("matin_mhz#stackoverflow.com")
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[#name='password']").send_keys("matin_mhz" + Keys.RETURN)
Note: You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

Why does selenium produce target element is not interactable and could not be clicked error when there is an explicit wait

I am working with Selenium, I have looked on SO and have seen many posts but I am unable to implement them in a way which works. I am using the below code but the error message I am getting is:
Message: The target element is not interactable and could not be clicked
I thought it was because the commands there was no 'slack' between commands so I inserted an implicit wait, however I am still getting the same error. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
driver = webdriver.Safari()
driver.get("https://securities.stanford.edu/filings-case.html?id=107866")
button = driver.find_element_by_link_text('Log In')
button.click()
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
username = driver.find_element_by_id("login_email")
password = driver.find_element_by_id("login_pass")
username.send_keys("EMAIL")
password.send_keys("PASSWORD")
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
driver.find_element_by_link_text('Log In').click()

There are 7 elements on that page with text Log In, this is why the following command button = driver.find_element_by_link_text('Log In') will get the first element matching this text while this is not the eolement you are looking for. So, you need to use better locator to match the correct element.
Also, you are defining driver.implicitly_wait(10) AFTER that command.
Also, it's preferably to use explicit waits of expected conditions rather than implicitly waits.
Also, if you are using implicitly wait there is no need to define it several times. This parameter is set per driver session and in most cases no need to re-set it to another value during the session.
This should work better:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Safari()
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
driver.get("https://securities.stanford.edu/filings-case.html?id=107866")
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//a[#href="#myModalLogin"]//strong[text()='Log In']"))).click()
username = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, "login_email")))
password = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, "login_pass")))
username.send_keys("EMAIL")
password.send_keys("PASSWORD")
driver.find_element_by_link_text('Log In').click()

The WebElement is a <button> element but not a <a> element. Hence you can't use link_text('Log In').
You can use the following Locator Strategies
CSS_SELECTOR:
driver.get("https://securities.stanford.edu/filings-case.html?id=107866")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div.hidden-tablet a[href='#myModalLogin']>strong"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input#login_email"))).send_keys("Jay#Dee.com")
driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input#login_pass").send_keys("Jay#Dee.com")
driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button[onclick='return submitLogin();']").click()
XPATH:
driver.get("https://securities.stanford.edu/filings-case.html?id=107866")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[contains(#class, 'hidden-tablet')]//a[#href='#myModalLogin']/strong"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#id='login_email']"))).send_keys("Jay#Dee.com")
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[#id='login_pass']").send_keys("Jay#Dee.com")
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//button[#onclick='return submitLogin();']").click()
Note : You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

Selenium webdriver can't find element sometimes

I'm trying to find the search box on tripadvisor but sometimes it is not able to find it. (I get timeout error). I have added WebDriverWait and time.sleep but to no avail. I am still in the midst of testing so there is a part of my code requiring human intervention below.
Edit: Changing to time.sleep(10) instead of 5 seconds helps. But it makes the code very slow. Hoping to use WebDriverWait instead...
searchbox = WebDriverWait(driver,20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//input[#placeholder='Where to?']")))
Below is my full code, where I have to find the searchbox multiple times for each country.
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
import time
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\\Users\\user\\Downloads\\chromedriver.exe')
driver.get("https://www.tripadvisor.com.sg/Hotels-g293951-Malaysia-Hotels.html")
Human intervention here: Click on a random check-in date, check-out date and then click "Update"
countries3 = ["France","Qatar","Brunei Darussalam","Hong Kong"]
countries4 = ["Germany","The Netherlands","Nigeria","South Africa","Russia"]
countries2 = ["New York","Saudi Arabia","Sri Lanka","Switzerland","Turkey"]
countries1 = ["United Arab Emirates","New Zealand","Thailand","India"]
countries5 = ["Vietnam","Australia","Malaysia","Cambodia","Indonesia","Laos","Myanmar","Philippines","Thailand","Vietnam","Australia", "Canada","China","Japan","Taiwan","United Kingdom","United States","Bangladesh","Belgium","Egypt","Finland"]
countries = countries1+countries2+countries3+countries4+countries5
for country in countries:
driver.get(URL)
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
time.sleep(5)
searchbox = WebDriverWait(driver,20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//input[#placeholder='Where to?']")))
searchbox.send_keys(country) #select your destination here
time.sleep(2)
possible = driver.find_elements_by_class_name("_3a_rGDNB")
for i in possible:
if i.text == country:
i.click()
break
time.sleep(5)
hotels = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//*[#title="Hotels"]')))
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].click();", hotels)
time.sleep(3)

To find the search box on Tripadvisor instead of presence_of_element_located() you have to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:
Using CSS_SELECTOR:
searchbox = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input[name='q'][title='Search']")))
Using XPATH:
searchbox = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#name='q' and #title='Search']")))
Note: You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

To entered value in search input box
Use WebDriverWait() and wait for element_to_be_clickable() and following xpath.
searchbox = WebDriverWait(driver,20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#aria-label='Search']")))

Selenium is not able to find the Name field in Twitter signup page

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("https://twitter.com/i/flow/signup")
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
setname = driver.find_element_by_name("name")
setname.click()
setname.send_keys("NAME SURNAME")
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
emailoption = driver.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div/div/div/div[2]/main/div/div/div/div[2]/div[2]/div/div[4]") #selenium can not find the element XPATH (I found it manually)
emailoption.click() #need to click in the element :)
driver.close()
Selenium can not find the element XPATH (I found it manually) ---Use email instead---.
Tried to find this element other ways... same result.
Maybe there is another way to click in it?

Add a Selenium expected condition (element_to_be_clickable) to your code and use relative XPath. To input your name, click on the link and input your email, you can use :
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#autocomplete='name']"))).send_keys('name')
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#autocomplete='tel']/following::span[1]']"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#autocomplete='email']"))).send_keys('email')
Be sure to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
If it still fails you can use Javascript :
name = "your_name"
email = "your_email"
elem = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#autocomplete='name']")))
self.driver.execute_script("arguments[0].setAttribute('value', '" + name +"')", elem)
elem2 = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#autocomplete='tel']/following::span[1]']")))
self.driver.execute_script("arguments[0].click();", elem2)
elem3 = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#autocomplete='email']")))
self.driver.execute_script("arguments[0].setAttribute('value', '" + email +"')", elem3)

The elements within Twitter Signup page are React elements. So to send a character sequence to the Name field you have to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:
Using CSS_SELECTOR:
driver.get("https://twitter.com/i/flow/signup")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input[name='name']"))).send_keys("Manoel Augusto")
Using XPATH:
driver.get("https://twitter.com/i/flow/signup")
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[#name='name']"))).send_keys("Manoel Augusto")
Note: You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: Unable to locate element error sending text to Email field in twitter with Selenium Python

Try below code -
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
import time
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
action = ActionChains(driver)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
driver.get('https://twitter.com/i/flow/signup')
time.sleep(5) # Add wait here so that twitter login page will load.
NameElement = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[#name='name']")
action.move_to_element(NameElement).click().perform()
NameElement.send_keys("Hello")
EmailOption = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//span[text()="Use email instead"]/parent::div')
EmailOption.click()
driver.close()

I ran your code on my computer and It worked perfectly, finding the email option and clicking on it. I also found the same xpath you provided, have you tried running your program in a debugger, and What IDE/text editor are you using? Also, are you leaving the window open when you are running your program? If you close the window it will throw an error. If you have any more details on what is happening when you run your code let me know I'd love to help.

Try below code :
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
driver.get("https://twitter.com/i/flow/signup")
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
setname = driver.find_element_by_name("name")
setname.click()
setname.send_keys("NAME SURNAME")
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
element1 = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//body//div[4]")))
element1.click()

How to click the button on the following website?

I am new to the world of python and I am trying to select a couple of options on the following website and then click the search button to update results. However, I cannot get the button to respond.
I tried using search button.click() and .submit() and I have tried to implicitly wait. I have also used the code below to wait until the button is clickable. When executing the code, it highlights the button but doesn't seem to release the click; almost like a half click.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Safari()
driver.get('https://leasing.com/personal/car-leasing/')
element = driver.find_element_by_id('selUpfront')
select = Select(element)
select.select_by_value("3")
element = driver.find_element_by_id('selMileage')
select = Select(element)
select.select_by_value("8000")
searchbutton = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, "search-button")))
searchbutton.click()
I would expect the search results to be updated with the conditions above.

Seems you were close. To click() on the element you have to induce WebDriverWait for the element to be clickable and you can use either of the following solutions:
Using CSS_SELECTOR:
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button#search-button>i.fa.fa-search#search-button-icon"))).click()
Using XPATH:
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[#id='search-button']/i[#class='fa fa-search' and #id='search-button-icon']"))).click()
Note : You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
