Starting today, investors on TradingView can chart financial data for the stocks they care about. Analyze trends in revenue, unlock hidden insights about a company’s earnings, and more. This new release gives everyone the financial data they need to evaluate the financial condition of a company and determine if it’s overvalued or undervalued.
To get started, find the Financials button located at the top of your TradingView chart and press it:
All financial data on TradingView is organized into four main categories: Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Ratios. After pressing the Financials button at the top of your chart, you’ll be presented with a window showing these four categories and the different indicators in each group. This is where you can select and chart indicators like EPS and EBITDA (find these in the Income Statement section) or price-to-earnings and price-to-sales ratios (find these in the Ratios section).
You can also compare and contrast the same financial indicators for different companies on the same chart. To do this, press the Settings button on your chart, go to Inputs, and press the button to add Another Symbol:
The following financial indicators have been added to TradingView and we’re excited to see how investors use them. Over the coming months, we’ll be adding more indicators and unique ways to evaluate companies. Here’s a detailed guide on each fundamental indicator:
Income Statement
| Total Revenue | The field represents gross sales and other operating revenue less discounts, returns and allowances. |
| Cost of Revenue, Total | The field return as the sum of Cost of Goods Sold – Excluding Depreciation & Amortization and Depreciation, Depletion & Amortization. |
| Total Operating Expenses | Represents the sum of all expenses related to operations. |
| Gross Profit | The field represents the difference between sales or revenues and cost of goods sold and depreciation. Gross profit = Revenue − Cost of goods sold incl D&A. |
| Research & Development | The field represents all direct and indirect costs related to the creation and development of new processes, techniques, applications and products with commercial possibilities. |
| Selling/General/Admin Expenses, Total | The field returns Total Operating Expenses: Research Development plus Selling General and Administrative. |

| EBITDA | The field returns EBITDA (Operating Income Plus Depreciation & Amortization). This is calculated as the sum of EBIT (Operating Income) and Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization.
If Depreciation, Depletion, and Amortization is not available, then Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (Cash Flow) will be substituted. Note, given the nature of the data items included in this calculation, this formula will only return data for industrial companies. |

While using financial data, it’s important to remember that financial data is derived from the published financial statements of companies, for example SEC filings. Sometimes a company will be missing certain data points over specific time periods and it’s often because of a change in data from the main source. This can impact the availability of that data.
It is worth noting that our data provider, Factset, uses its own methodology for collecting and processing data, which is why financial indicators on TradingView may differ from similar indicators provided by other sources. You can find more info here.
