Let’s start with the obvious: this article is written by one of the two sides. We are the Stok Terminal team, and a 100% neutral comparison doesn’t exist. This comparison has one particularity, though: TradingView and Stok Terminal barely compete. They do different jobs, and the most honest thing we can tell you is that you probably want both.
Quick answer
Stok Terminal wins on multi-year fundamentals, ratios, earnings, filings and portfolio tracking, from €9.90/month$9.90 USD/month. TradingView wins on charts and technical analysis. Many fundamental investors use both: one for the business, one for its price.
Comparison table
| Stok Terminal | TradingView | |
|---|---|---|
| Main strength | Multi-year fundamental analysis | Charts and technical analysis |
| Question it answers | Is this a good business at this price? | What is the price doing? |
| Financial statements | Annual and quarterly statements: 7 years (Starter), 15 (Plus), all available on Premium, more than 40 years for some companies | Financial data in a panel next to the chart |
| Ratios | ratio explorer with annual, quarterly and daily series where available | Some, next to the chart |
| Earnings and filings | Earnings call transcripts (3 / 10 / all years) and all SEC filings with a filter; no analyst estimates | Earnings data next to the chart |
| Watchlists / portfolio | Watchlists + multi-currency portfolio, manual or imported from your broker’s file, with realized and unrealized P&L | Powerful watchlists; basic portfolio |
| Charts and indicators | Candlestick chart with daily and intraday prices (fundamentals remain the focus) | Reference in retail |
| Language | Spanish and English interface | Spanish interface available |
| Monthly price | From €9.90/month$9.90 USD/month · plans | Free Basic; paid monthly rate not quoted |
| Product status | Available — launch offer | Mature, industry reference |
TradingView’s pricing page does not show a standard monthly rate for its paid plans, so we do not quote any TradingView amount. Stok Terminal shows its standard monthly price.
Launch offer

The core difference: the price vs the business
TradingView analyzes the price. It is the reference charting and technical-analysis tool for retail investors: thousands of indicators, community scripts, patterns, timeframes, alerts. If your question is “what is the price doing?”, nothing is better.
Stok Terminal analyzes the business behind the price. Income statement, balance sheet, cash flow and ratios across the years, connected to your watchlists and portfolio. If your question is “is this a good company at this price?”, a chart won’t answer it — the fundamentals will.
Neither is “better” — they answer different questions.
That’s why this comparison ends, more than any other, in “use both.”
What Stok Terminal does differently
- Earnings calls and filings next to the numbers. Every SEC filing with a form filter, and earnings call transcripts to read how management explains each quarter: 3 years on Starter, 10 on Plus and all available on Premium.
- History up to everything available. Full annual and quarterly statements in comparable tables, with 7 years on Starter, 15 on Plus and all available history on Premium, more than 40 years for some companies. Up to 20 metrics in one chart. Full statements come from €9.90/month$9.90 USD/month; TradingView’s paid plans add charts and alerts, not deeper fundamentals.
- A ratio explorer with annual, quarterly and daily series, from ROIC and margins to free cash flow. Daily series depend on coverage and publication dates that can be reported or inferred. Review those limits in the data methodology.
- A comparator of 2, 4 or 6 companies side by side, depending on the plan (Starter, Plus, Premium).
- Sankey diagrams, on Plus and Premium: Money Flow from revenue to net income, the allocation of operating cash flow, and the structure of the balance sheet over time.
- Watchlists and portfolio connected to the analysis. Watchlists with custom columns on every plan; a multi-currency portfolio, entered manually or imported from your broker’s file, with realized and unrealized P&L (full portfolio analytics on every plan); notes with tags.
- Spanish interface and guides that teach the method, from how to read an annual report to the full fundamental analysis guide.
Stok Terminal lets you create your account in the app with email and terms acceptance, then verify the code sent to your inbox. Signup does not require a name or password. During launch, the offer gives Starter 10% off monthly or 25% off annual billing, Plus 30% or 40%, and Premium 40% or 50%, respectively. Your tariff keeps the same amount while you remain subscribed. Upgrades and monthly-to-annual switches keep the launch tariff; downgrades and annual-to-monthly switches use the current standard tariff. Cancelling ends it. Choose your plan and provide your card to start the 14-day trial.
What we don’t have today, plainly: TradingView’s charting, indicators and alerts; Stok Terminal complements it with the analysis of the business behind the chart, and its screener is in development.
What TradingView does better
- The reference charts in retail. Flexibility, speed, indicators and a community that publishes scripts for almost everything.
- A genuinely capable free plan. Basic covers what most people need to watch prices, without the advertising load of other portals.
- Spanish interface and a very large community, with ideas, sentiment and a social network of traders.
- Broad market coverage, with real-time market data on paid plans.
- Alerts and multi-chart layouts for anyone who depends on timing.
If your focus is trading and technical analysis, the honest answer is: TradingView is your tool. We do not compete there.
Why paying more on TradingView does not buy fundamentals
An important nuance if you are considering upgrading TradingView to analyze companies: its paid tiers scale trader features rather than fundamental depth.
| Plan | Price | What it adds (trader focus) |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | Free | 1 chart, basic indicators |
| Essential | Not quoted | 2 charts, 5 indicators, 20 alerts |
| Plus | Not quoted | 4 charts, 10 indicators, 100 alerts |
| Premium | Not quoted | 8 charts, 25 indicators, 400 alerts |
| Ultimate | Not quoted | 16 charts, 50 indicators, 1,000 alerts |
Plan limits as reviewed on TradingView’s website on July 4, 2026. Paid amounts are not quoted because its pricing page shows no standard monthly rate.
Paying more buys more charts, more indicators and more alerts; it does not add ROIC history or comparable statement tables. We expand on this in TradingView for fundamental analysis.
When to choose each
Choose TradingView if:
- You trade or do technical analysis and the chart is your central tool.
- You trade on short-term price moves.
- You want a huge community of ideas and scripts.
Choose Stok Terminal if:
- You invest for the medium-to-long term and decide on fundamentals, not the chart.
- You want multi-year statements, pre-calculated ratios and the analysis → watchlist → portfolio flow.
- You prefer paying in euros and learning the method with Spanish-language guides.
Use both if: (the most common case) you want TradingView’s chart for the price and timing, and Stok Terminal to decide whether the business behind it is worth it. It is the combination we openly recommend.
How we compared
- Official prices only. We quote competitor prices only when their website shows a standard monthly rate, with the date it was checked. TradingView’s pricing page does not show one, so no amount is quoted; its plan limits were reviewed on July 4, 2026.
- Fundamental-analysis focus. We judge each tool by what matters to study a business over time: history depth, ratios, earnings and filings, and the link to your portfolio.
- Only what exists today. Stok Terminal features are listed with the plan that includes them, and what is still in development is marked as such, without dates.
- Conflict of interest. We build Stok Terminal and benefit if you choose it. That is why we state what TradingView does better and which investor should not choose us.
