What is the value that is displayed on heatmap blocks along with stock names?
The number shown on each Heatmap block is the actual value of the metric you chose for Block colour.
For example, if Block colour is set to 1D chg %, the block shows that stock’s 1-day return %.
If Block colour is P/E, the block shows the P/E ratio.
Example
You set Block colour = 1D chg %. If a stock is +0.8% today, its block shows +0.8% next to the stock name.
How to check or change what the value shows
- Open Analytics › Heatmap.
- Click Block colour → pick the metric you want shown on each block (e.g., 1D chg %, 1M chg %, P/E) → Apply.
- (Optional) Open Heat multiplier to adjust Baseline and Sensitivity for colour contrast. This changes only the shade, not the number.
FYERS App (iOS/Android)
- Go to Markets › Analytics › Heatmap.
- Tap the three lines icon (top right) to open Preferences.
- Open Block colour → choose the metric you want shown on blocks → Apply.
- (Optional) Adjust Baseline and Sensitivity in Heat multiplier → Apply.
Notes
- The printed number on a block is the real metric value (it does not change when you tweak Heat multiplier).
- Baseline only decides where green/red starts; Sensitivity only makes colours stronger or softer.
- For metrics where a lower number is better (e.g., P/E, P/S), colours are auto-reversed so better values look greener.
What If?
| Scenario | Action |
|---|
| The number doesn’t match what I expected | Open Block colour and confirm which metric is selected (e.g., 1D chg % vs 1M chg % vs P/E). |
| Colours changed, but the number is the same | That’s expected—Heat multiplier affects colour only. The printed value never changes. |
| I want valuation values on the blocks | Set Block colour to a valuation metric (e.g., P/E, P/B). |
