How can I use the Bubble chart with the Heatmap to validate insights?

How can I use the Bubble chart with the Heatmap to validate insights?

Use the Heatmap to spot broad patterns fast (leaders/laggards by sector or industry). Then switch to the Bubble chart to test those ideas with a second lens—plotting two metrics on X and Y, plus Bubble size and Bubble colour for depth.

Scope: Applies to FYERS Web and FYERS App.

Two-step validation workflow

  1. Scan in Heatmap:
    • Pick Universe (e.g., Nifty 50).
    • Set Block size (e.g., Market cap) and Block colour (e.g., 1D chg %).
    • Adjust Heat multiplier for clearer contrasts if needed.
    • Note sectors/industries that stand out.
  2. Test in Bubble chart:
    • Match the Universe (or filter to a sector via Sectoral indices).
    • Choose X-axis and Y-axis metrics that explain the Heatmap move (e.g., profitability vs growth).
    • Set Bubble size (e.g., Market cap) and Bubble colour (e.g., 1M or 3M chg %) to confirm if strength is broad and persistent.

FYERS Web

  1. Heatmap: Open Analytics › Heatmap → set Universe, Block size, Block colour → adjust Heat multiplier if required → identify a sector/industry to investigate.
  2. Bubble chart: Open Analytics › Bubble chart → set the same Universe (or pick the sector under Sectoral indices) → choose X-axis, Y-axis, Bubble size, Bubble colour → Apply.
  3. Use Reset within a setting to clear that one choice, or Reset all on the toolbar to start over.

FYERS App 

  1. Heatmap: Go to Markets › Analytics › Heatmap → set Universe, Block size, Block colour → tweak Heat multiplier if needed → note sectors/industries.
  2. Bubble chart: Go to Markets › Analytics › Bubble chart → tap the three lines icon (top right) to open Preferences → set Universe (or sector via Sectoral indices), X-axis, Y-axis, Bubble size, Bubble colour → Apply.

Notes

  • Consistency check: Set the same Universe in both Heatmap and Bubble chart so you’re comparing the same set of stocks.
  • Momentum vs context: Heatmap’s 1D chg % shows today’s move; Bubble chart’s colour can use longer windows (e.g., 1M/3M chg %) to test persistence.
  • Zoom & pan (Bubble): Click-drag to zoom; hold Shift and drag to pan around clusters.

What If?

ScenarioAction
Sector looks strong on Heatmap, not sure it’s realIn Bubble chart, set Universe to that sector → use X = profitability (e.g., margins) and Y = growth to see if leadership is broad, not just 1–2 names.
Today’s colour is bright but feels noisyKeep Heatmap on 1D chg % but change Bubble colour to 1M/3M chg % to check follow-through.
Too many bubbles overlapZoom (drag) and pan (Shift + drag) to inspect clusters; or switch Bubble size to a wider-spread metric.
I need to revert experimentsUse Reset inside a setting to clear it, or Reset all on the toolbar to restore defaults.
