TradingView is a chart-first market analysis platform for traders who want powerful charts, screeners, alerts, Pine Script, paper trading, and broker-connected trading across many asset classes. It is strongest when technical analysis, custom indicators, strategy testing, watchlists, and real-time market monitoring are part of the same workflow. The free Basic plan is useful for trying the product, but active users usually run into limits on charts, indicators, alerts, watchlists, and historical bars. Some real-time exchange data is sold separately.

MarketScreener is a broad global market news and stock research portal with quotes, watchlists, screeners, charts, calendars, analyst data, company financials, transcripts, ESG ratings, insider data, newsletters, and model portfolio content. It is useful for retail investors who want one content-heavy site for daily monitoring and global stock discovery. The tradeoff is tier gating: advanced screeners, reports, portfolios, decision-support tools, and some content require paid Access, Premium, or Expert subscriptions, with pricing that can vary by region and promotion.

About Me
Hey! Thanks for stopping by. I'm an independent investor with a soft spot for coding and the stock market - especially value investing (as you can probably tell from the tools I've collected here, haha). Hopefully you'll find something useful or interesting along the way.

Starred Tools
These are my top picks. Tools I've tested thoroughly and found to be excellent. They do their job really well, and I use them a lot. If you're not already familiar with them, I highly recommend checking them out.
Tested Tools
These are tools I've tried and found to be solid, but not standout. Think of them as passing an initial quality screen: worth exploring, though not all will be exceptional.
Curation & Accuracy
This directory blends AI‑assisted discovery with human curation. Entries are reviewed, edited, and organized with the goal of expanding coverage and sharpening quality over time. Your feedback helps steer improvements (because no single human can capture everything all at once).
Details change. Pricing, features, and availability may be incomplete or out of date. Treat listings as a starting point and verify on the provider’s site before making decisions. If you spot an error or a gap, send a quick note and I’ll adjust.
