We got some positive feedback last week when we highlighted a futures heat map, so this week we are showcasing a heat map from FinViz for our free trading tool. This time it is a map of the all the stocks in the S&P 500. But, wait there’s more!

Seriously, without trying to sound to gushy, the folks at FinViz have put together a really nice set of free data visualization tools. Yes, you can quickly glance at the S&P 500 heat map and see where the market is at that time, where various sectors are sitting, and what the individual stocks are doing. You can also see what they have done for a week, a month, or other timeframes. Does EPS growth factor into your interest in a stock? P/E? Dividend yield? Short float? You can check those and other metrics on the S&P and world markets via the heat map. Very cool. Need more cool? You can also take a look at relative volume for the S&P stocks, world markets, and ETF’s.

Since we’re all about data visualization, now seems like a good time to share some screenshots of some of the maps we created with just a few clicks:

Have a great weekend :)
