Stock screener and market visualisation
The best Finviz alternatives
Finviz alternatives are searched by two different people. One wants a better or cheaper screener and should be looking at other web tools. The other has realised that a screener is not a monitoring system, that finding a stock and then being told what happens to it are separate jobs, and that the second one needs to reach a phone.
7 options below: 6 independent alternatives, ordered by how close each one sits to what Finviz is actually for rather than best to worst, plus our own app, listed on its own so you can tell the two apart. The right pick depends on whether your problem is choosing stocks, following them, or tracking a portfolio. We compare 37 tools in all.
Where Finviz still wins
Screening, and the heat map. Finviz is the screener most people in this market picture when they hear the word, it is fast, and a great deal of it is usable free in a browser without an account. Stockplus has no screener that competes.
If that is the part you rely on, staying put is a reasonable answer, and nothing below is an upgrade on it.

6 alternatives to Finviz
Stock alert service
StockAlert.pro
A web service whose entire product is alerts: 23 trigger types across price, technicals, volume, fundamentals, dividends and social sentiment.
- Best for
- Alert variety, by a wide margin. RSI limits, moving-average crossovers, Bollinger Band touches, P/E thresholds, ex-dividend and payment dates, Reddit and X sentiment, and time-based reminders are all triggers here. Stockplus does price and percent-change alerts. If you want to be told when RSI crosses 30 on a name you follow, we cannot do that and they can.
- Free tier
- Yes, Basic: up to 5 price and time alerts and 2 watchlist stocks
- Paid from
- Premium $19.99/mo, with a yearly option saving 17%, as of August 2026
Multi-market insider transaction screener
Insider Screener
A screener for insider transactions across 16 markets, taken from national regulators and exchanges rather than from SEC EDGAR alone.
- Best for
- Geography, and it is not close. 16 markets: the US and Canada, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Greece, plus India and Australia in beta, all normalised into one schema. If you hold European or Indian equities, Stockplus cannot show you insider filings on them and Insider Screener can.
- Free tier
- Latest trades and basic screeners are browsable; watchlists, exports and alerts sit behind a plan
- Paid from
- Three tiers, Plus, Pro and Premium, monthly or annual with three months free on annual and a 14-day money-back guarantee. The figures render client-side and were not present in the page source on 27 August 2026, so no price is quoted here
Charting and analysis platform
TradingView
The charting platform most traders end up on, with advanced charts across every asset class, a scripting language for custom indicators, and a large community publishing ideas.
- Best for
- Charts, and it is not close. Pine Script, hundreds of built-in indicators, multi-chart layouts, replay, and a community publishing setups every day. If you draw on charts to make decisions, nothing in Stockplus replaces TradingView.
- Free tier
- Yes, Basic, with ads and 2 indicators per chart
- Paid from
- Essential $12.95/mo to Ultimate $199.95/mo, plus exchange data fees, as of August 2026
Research, ratings and newsletter publisher
MarketBeat
A high-volume financial media and research business, with analyst ratings, screeners, stock lists and premium reports, wrapped around a very large free email newsletter operation.
- Best for
- Volume and reach. Seven screeners, analyst ratings and upgrade tracking, dividend and insider stock lists, a MarketRank score, and a steady stream of premium reports, on top of free newsletters read by millions. If you want published research and ratings coverage, MarketBeat produces vastly more of it than Stockplus ever will.
- Free tier
- Yes, the site and email newsletters are free, with ads
- Paid from
- All Access $249/yr, or $29/mo billed monthly, as of August 2026
Free market data portal
Yahoo Finance
The default free finance portal: quotes, news, and portfolios for practically every listed company, with paid Premium tiers on top.
- Best for
- Breadth. Yahoo Finance covers more tickers, more fundamentals, and more news than any focused app, and most of it is free. If you want to look something up, it is almost always there.
- Free tier
- Yes
- Paid from
- Premium $7.95–$39.95/mo billed yearly, as of August 2026
Political-trading intelligence dashboard
TraderCongress
A web dashboard that puts congressional trades next to government contracts, lobbying reports, federal spending, Form 4 filings and dark-pool signals.
- Best for
- Joining datasets that usually live apart. Congressional disclosures on their own tell you what a member bought. TraderCongress puts 109,800+ of those beside 13,200+ government contract awards and 20,000+ lobbying reports, which is the combination that makes a trade interesting rather than just visible. Stockplus does not carry contracts or lobbying data at all.
- Free tier
- Yes, congress trades and contracts on a 60-day delay, 3 watchlist slots
- Paid from
- Pro at $99.99/yr, shown as $8.33/mo, against a stated list price of $49/mo, as of August 2026

Questions people ask
What is the best free Finviz alternative?
For screening, TradingView's free tier is the closest like-for-like on the web. For following stocks once you have found them, Stockplus is free to start and includes congressional and insider feeds.
Is there a Finviz alternative with a mobile app?
TradingView and Yahoo Finance both have real mobile apps with screening of some kind. Stockplus is mobile-first but is a monitoring app rather than a screener. It will not replace the Finviz screen itself.
What is a cheaper alternative to Finviz Elite?
It depends what part of Elite you use. If it is real-time data and screening, TradingView's paid tiers are the nearest comparison. If it is the alerts, Stockplus Pro is $3.99/mo against $299.50/yr and delivers them as push to iOS and Android.
