TradingView
Where traders chart and screen almost any market and script their own filters. Free plan with ads, four paid tiers.
For screening outside the US, TradingView covers more ground than most: six screener types, from stocks and bonds to crypto pairs on decentralised exchanges, across exchanges in every region, with several regions in one screen. Fundamental and technical filters sit side by side, and Pine Script turns your own indicator into a filter (Pine Screener, Premium and above) or a backtest run on its servers. The free plan never expires but shows ads and has limits, and four paid tiers sit above it. We don't quote prices because they change from country to country. Two gaps are worth knowing. Its support page says plainly that there is no API for data, and the new AI Chart Copilot is a beta browser extension, not part of the app.

Best for
Traders who think in charts and want to screen any market in the world, ideally with a little Pine Script. A long-term investor who mostly wants to record what they own will use a small slice of it.
Strengths
- Six screener types and exchanges in every region, with several regions in one screen
- Pine Script for your own indicators, screens and server-side backtests, plus 150k+ community scripts
- Alerts on price, indicators or a whole watchlist, up to 1,000 at once on the top plan
Trade-offs
- No data API at all, by the vendor's own statement
- Users report patchy fundamentals outside large US companies, so check a non-US screen against a second source
- Screening on your own Pine code needs Premium or higher
TradingView vs PortfolioGlance
TradingView does everything before the purchase better than we do: we have no screener, no chart drawing and no trade signals. What it doesn't do is the bookkeeping after you buy: cost basis across currencies, dividends received, returns over the years, and holdings like bonds, cash or property. The two fit together, TradingView to find and time a trade and PortfolioGlance to follow it for years.
