How to chart financials for any company

This chart shows some key financial metrics for Netflix. We're using the multi-chart layout feature to show the following financial situation:

1. Netflix Quarterly Revenue
2. Netflix Cash & Equivalents
3. Netflix Total Debt
4. Netflix Forward Price-to-Sales ratio

With the financials feature on TradingView, we could chart a lot more than this. Including EPS, R&D, PE ratio, EBITDA, Market cap, and more. We wanted to share this layout with you to demonstrate what's possible. Whether you're a value investor or a short-term trader you can chart the financial situation for a company to better understand the fundamentals that are driving price or telling the story behind a particular asset.

For example, Netflix's cash is growing and so is Netflix's revenue. But this chart layout shows that it's not all good news. Netflix has taken on some massive amounts of debt. Debt continues to rise as content becomes more expensive. This post is not investing or trading advice, instead it is educational. As a TradingView member, this data is available to you right now. You can examine the financial situation for Netflix or other companies.

To get started, click the Financials button located at the top of your chart. The Financials icon looks like the bar chart 📊 emoji. Once you've opened the Financials menu, you can sort by Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Statistics. You can also use the search field to find specific financial metrics that are relevant to you.

Before you head to the comments to leave a positive review with some interesting feedback 😁, we have a few more tips to share:

1. When you open the Financials menu, you can hover your mouse over a Financial metric. To the far right of that metric select either Quarterly or Annual. Quarterly will show you the numbers a company reported every 3 months or quarter and annual will show what a company reported every 12 months or full year.

2. For other financial metrics, when you hover your mouse over them, to the far right you will see a question mark icon appear. You can click this question mark to get a definition for that specific financial metric. So if you ever need to learn something new, it's just one click away. Below we've shared some examples:

Price to Sales Ratio
Research and Development
Basic EPS
Free cash flow
Enterprise value
