What are templates?
The templates on Finviz allow you to fully customize, save and manage all your visual charts across the platform. It captures all the visual and technical details of a chart and lets you instantly apply it anywhere on Finviz, including:
- Chart type (Candlestick, OHLC, Line, Heikin Ashi)
- Indicators (SMA 20/50/200, RSI, etc.)
- Colors (candles, wicks, size, background)
- Layout and visual sense
- Extended hours, events, and overlays
Once saved to your profile, your chart template becomes a repeatable environment that you can upload at any time. Most users see charts with default settings across our platform. Now, as an elite member, you can set your own standard and apply it everywhere.
For example, if you turn on a screen and look at the charts within that screen, you’ll see our standard visuals:

Templates are not displayed on only one full-screen chart. They spread throughout your workflow everywhere on Finviz, including the screener as described earlier in this post and also the stock symbol pages. We created a new chart template and now our Berkshire Hathaway page looks like this:
The best traders, and the best investors, don’t look at the markets the same way all the time. They build a model for their needs, then upload it when needed.
When you’re ready to create your first template, here’s some inspiration for you. Each of these examples explains the chart template, its purpose, title, and settings:
1. Long-term investor model
- Line chart or clean candles
- 50/200 SMA
- Minimum indicators
- Neutral colors (black/white or soft tones)
Focus: direction, structure, patience.
2. Swing Trading Template
- Candles + RSI
- 20/50/200 SMA
- Clean but informative
Focus: Multi-day setups, withdrawals, and holds.
3. Calm/Decision Template
- Muted colors (blues, greys, soft tones)
- Minimal overlays
- Clean background
Focus: Reducing noise and emotional bias.
More to come
Every serious trader eventually realizes that the advantage lies not only in the setup, but also in the environment and platform in which you operate. Templates turn Finviz into something different:
- Visuals are fully customizable across our platform and unique to your profile and elite abilities.
- Custom decision engine across stock pages, sorters, charts, and more.
We look forward to seeing how you all use the chart templates!
