When you analyse a stock, you rarely look at just one number. You check margins, glance at growth, compare valuations, and look at recent returns. Then you try to connect it all in your head.
Doing this for one company is fine. Doing it for a list of 50 companies is slow and painful. Most relationships stay hidden in the rows of your spreadsheet.
Bubble Charts are built to solve exactly that.
This is the first time Indian traders can visualise the market this way on a brokerage platform. We are bringing institutional-grade analysis—usually reserved for expensive terminals—directly to your screen.
Instead of scanning multiple tables, you can see all these dimensions together in a single visual. Each bubble represents a stock. The position, colour, and size of that bubble tell you the entire story in one second.
How it works
A bubble is not just a point on the chart. It carries four signals at once:
Size: How "large" the company is (e.g. Market Cap).
Colour: How the price has moved (e.g. 1 Week Return).
X-Axis: One fundamental metric (e.g. Net Profit Margin).
Y-Axis: Another fundamental metric (e.g. 1M Returns).
So at any moment, you are looking at profitability, valuations, growth, and returns all at once. You do not have to mentally overlay numbers. You simply look at the picture.
To make this intuitive, the default view shows Nifty 50 stocks. You will naturally find yourself looking at the top-right section. These are the companies with both strong margins and strong growth.
1. Choose your Universe
The first step is to decide which group of stocks you want to study.
You can pick any of the major indices, sectoral lists, or thematic baskets.
But the most useful feature is “My Stocks”. This allows you to load your own Watchlist, Holdings, or Open Positions.
This instantly turns your own portfolio into a multi-dimensional visual. Instead of just reading a P&L statement, you can visually see how your stocks stack up against each other in terms of quality and growth.
2. Customise the Bubbles
Everything inside the Bubble Chart is adjustable. You decide what the bubbles represent.
Bubble Size If you want to highlight large companies, size them by Market Cap. If you want to see which companies report the highest profits regardless of stock price, size by Net Profit. Changing the bubble size changes what stands out on the screen.
Bubble Colour Colour is based on returns over a timeframe you choose.
Green: Positive return.
Red: Negative return.
Grey: Flat.
You can choose anything from a 1-day to a 5-year return. This is helpful when you want to see if strong fundamentals (position) are aligning with price action (colour).
3. Define the Relationship (X and Y Axes)
This is where the bubble chart becomes powerful.
You can place metrics like growth, valuation ratios, margins, solvency metrics, and quarterly data on either axis. Whichever pair you pick, the chart rearranges itself instantly to show the relationship.
If you are unsure where to start, we have provided preset combinations such as:
Net Profit Margin vs Sales Growth
ROE vs ROA
PE Ratio vs EPS Growth
These presets bring out meaningful patterns immediately without you having to configure everything manually.
How to navigate
We have made it easy to move from a bird’s eye view to specific details without losing your place.
Hover to see details: You don't need to guess the numbers. Just hover your mouse over any bubble. A tooltip instantly pops up showing the Symbol Name along with the exact values for all 4 metrics - Market Cap, Returns, and your X/Y axes parameters.
Zoom in: If bubbles are overlapping in a busy sector, just click and drag to zoom into that cluster.
Click to Act: Found a trade? Click the bubble to open the full Symbol Details panel to check the chart or place an order.
A Practical Example
Let’s say you want to find emerging companies in the Nifty India Consumption index. You are looking for stocks that:
Are growing sales rapidly.
Are still available at reasonable valuations.
Have shown strong returns this week.
Here is how you set it up:
Universe: Nifty India Consumption
Bubble Size: Market Cap
Bubble Colour: 1-Week Return
X-axis: Price-to-Sales
Y-axis: Sales Growth YoY
Now, just look for:
Smaller bubbles: These are the small/mid caps.
In green: These have positive momentum.
Located at the Top-Left: This means they have High Growth (Top) but Lower Valuations (Left).
What normally takes multiple reports and filters can be spotted visually in seconds.
Why this matters
Bubble Charts help you answer questions you could not answer easily before.
Are high-margin companies also expensive? Are the fastest growers also the ones delivering the best returns? How does your own portfolio spread across growth and profitability?
Instead of going metric by metric, you see everything together.
Go to Markets > Analytics > Bubble Chart on FYERS Web or App. Spend a few minutes switching axes and zooming into clusters. You will start noticing patterns you may have missed earlier.
