Trendlyne is an Indian stock-market app and website that helps investors find, analyse, and track stocks. It combines market feeds, stock screeners, research tools, and a special scoring system called DVM (Durability, Valuation, Momentum). You can use it on the web or through the mobile app for Android and iOS.
Key features (in plain words)
-
Stock screeners with many filters
Trendlyne gives hundreds — in some places they say over 1,000 — parameters to filter stocks. That means you can look for companies using very specific rules (for example: small firms with rising sales, or large firms with low debt and strong cash flow). This helps both beginners and advanced users find candidates quickly. (Trendlyne.com) -
DVM Score (Durability, Valuation, Momentum)
One of Trendlyne’s main ideas is the DVM score. It combines three important ideas — how durable a business looks, whether it’s fairly valued, and whether its price action shows momentum — into one score. The DVM score is meant to help you filter out weak businesses and highlight stronger ones. (Trendlyne.com) -
Real-time screeners & alerts
The app offers real-time results for many screeners and lets you set alerts (for price movements, screener matches, or corporate updates). This is useful if you want to be notified quickly when a condition you care about happens. (Google Play) -
Charts, analyst estimates and research
You get price charts, analyst consensus forecasts, share price targets (where available), SWOT summaries, and research notes. These help you check the story behind a stock rather than just numbers. (App Store) -
Portfolio and watchlist tools
You can add stocks to watchlists or upload your portfolio to track performance, see reports, and run portfolio-level analysis. This turns Trendlyne into a monitoring tool, not just a screener. (Trendlyne.com)
Pricing — short and clear
Trendlyne has both free and paid plans. Free users get a number of screeners and basic features, but the advanced tools, backtesting, and many premium screeners are behind subscription plans. They list several paid tiers (names like Guru, Strat, Pro) and show monthly and yearly prices on their site. If you plan to use many advanced filters, backtesting, or portfolio reports, a paid plan may be needed. (Trendlyne.com)
Who is Trendlyne for?
-
Beginners who want to learn about screeners and use ready-made filters. The user interface (on mobile and web) is designed to be approachable. (App Store)
-
Active retail investors who want fast alerts and many screening options in one place.
-
Analysts and power users who need advanced parameters, backtesting, and detailed reports — these users will likely subscribe.
Pros (what’s good)
-
Lots of screening power — many built-in expert screeners plus the ability to create your own. (Trendlyne.com)
-
DVM score gives a quick, simple signal combining business quality, value, and price momentum. (Trendlyne.com)
-
Mobile + web — data and alerts sync across devices, and the app has strong features that match the web experience. (Google Play)
-
Backtesting (on paid plans) helps test if a screener would have worked in the past — a powerful tool for building confidence. (Trendlyne.com)
Cons (what to watch out for)
-
Price for advanced features — if you need backtesting, many screeners, or deep reports, you may need a subscription. Consider whether you’ll use those features enough to justify the cost. (Trendlyne.com)
-
Learning curve for power users — while many things are simple, creating complex screeners or interpreting backtests needs time and a basic understanding of finance. (Trendlyne.com)
How to get started (step-by-step)
-
Install the app or open the website — Trendlyne is on Google Play and the Apple App Store, and also on trendlyne.com. (Google Play)
-
Create an account — free signup gives you basic tools.
-
Try the built-in screeners — pick a ready-made screener (like high ROE, low debt, or near 52-week highs) to see how it works. (Trendlyne.com)
-
Make a watchlist and set alerts — add stocks you like and set price or screener alerts so you don’t miss changes. (Google Play)
-
Consider a paid plan later — after a few weeks, check if you need backtesting or more advanced features. If yes, compare the plans on their pricing page. (Trendlyne.com)
Real user context — short example
Suppose you want mid-cap stocks with improving return on equity and low debt. On Trendlyne you can combine filters for ROE growth, debt-to-equity range, and market cap range. Then backtest that filter to see how similar picks performed in past years. If the historical returns and risk profile look good to you, add the filtered stocks to a watchlist and set alerts for price movements. This practical workflow shows how screeners, backtesting, and alerts work together. (Trendlyne.com)
Final thoughts — should you try it?
If you are serious about using screeners or like data-driven stock ideas, Trendlyne is worth a look. It mixes easy-to-use features for beginners with powerful tools for advanced users. Start with the free version to learn the interface and some key screeners. If you later need backtesting or many custom filters, evaluate the paid plans to see which one fits your needs and budget.
