Fast response on support and detailed information to help me solve a problem within a few minutes.

Barchart.com has totally changed my trading. What used to take me days or weeks to analyze and group possible stocks, now takes me seconds with all the filters I have access to. In addition as soon as I have a question or concern and I send a note to their support team, I usually get a response within the hour. Not only just a response, but links to webinars or other useful information. The Support at Barchart just makes the whole package that much better. I have been a premium member for a couple years now and easily make that money back on a couple of weekly covered calls. Definitely worth the time and investment.

Barchart provides very unreliable information. They often right articles to pump a stock so thier friends who asked them to write it can sell. Or write articles trashing a stock so people will sell and thier friends load up. They are as reliable as Jim Cramer.

If you’ve ever wanted to pay Wall Street prices for 1998 energy with 2025 bugs, congratulations—you’ve found your spiritual home.
The good (this will be quick):
- The homepage occasionally loads in under seven seconds
- They still haven’t removed the 2009-era stock screener, so at least there’s nostalgic consistency.
Charting: The flagship product is somehow worse in 2026 than it was in 2018.
Zooming feels like you’re dragging a spreadsheet through molasses
Indicators frequently fail to render when you switch timeframes. Drawing tools disappear randomly when you switch symbols (yes, even after “save”). Mobile charting is functionally identical to opening TradingView in 2012 on a Nokia.
Data Quality & Reliability: Options chains regularly show bids higher than asks for minutes at a time.
Futures depth-of-market is either blank or frozen on 30–60 second delays. Dividend data is still wrong on dozens of major ETFs years after the splits. After-hours data appears to be optional depending on how caffeinated their intern was that day.
The “Pro” Subscription ($199–$400+/mo depending on how sadistic you feel).
For this money you get:
- Slightly fewer ads (they’re still there, just smaller)
- The privilege of watching the same server 502 errors, but now with a darker background.
- “Advanced” alerts that fire 8–40 minutes late and sometimes never.
- Export to CSV that routinely drops the last 15–30 rows.
Customer Support: 🤭
Imagine a help desk that has already decided you are the problem before you finish typing “hello”.
Average response time: 3–7 business days.
Average usefulness: slightly below reading the error message yourself.
The UI/UX Philosophy:
Every page gives the unmistakable impression that someone in 2007 said “this looks perfect, freeze it forever”.
Dark mode? Barely.
Responsive design? Not even trying.
Accessibility? The contrast is so bad it’s practically a hate crime against retinas.

Bottom line
There are exactly three kinds of people still paying for Barchart in 2026:
1. People whose firm pays for it and they have no choice.
2. People who started using it in 2005 and literally forgot other websites exist.
3. Masochists with very specific kinks involving loading spinners.
If you are none of those three, there is zero rational reason to give Barchart money in the current decade.
TradingView (free tier), Thinkorswim, Interactive Brokers’ client portal, even Yahoo Finance with a few browser extensions—all of them humiliate Barchart in every meaningful category while charging less (usually $0).

One star because zero isn’t an option.
And because the coffee mug from their 2012 promo is still kinda nice.

Avoid. Aggressively.

Zero integrity in journalism. Sristi Suman Jayaswal wrote a hit and run piece for Barchart without researching her sources. Her source CapitalWatch was known in the field as a black-box company that makes up information to defame others. Had she spent 5 minutes researching this, she would've known to avoid publishing this. She now has no credibility in her field.

The Applovin piece written by Sristi Suman Jayaswal was completely unresearched. She asserted accusations without consideration of it's truthfulness. The accusations were absurd and lack any credibility. The article barely made any sense. Cross reference the company that made the allegations and you'll find that CapitalWatch is known to be a hit and run company that makes up allegations. Sristi lacks journalism skills by failure to check her sources.

A/N or N/A couple covers my money payments

Instruction is not clear, kept asking me to join Barchart premier so that I can download intraday historical data, indeed I am already a trial member.

I think the site does provide good content but if you are an Asian client it is really tricky as the site goes down like I'm experiencing now. There is no support during Asian hours and if you are a trader you cannot afford this.

Scam promoters,
Never expect from Barchart.com, recently they are published paid article about optominer.com ,they are 100% scam sites ,strict Regulation needed to effectively control agencies like this for promoting scammers...

The site has been experiencing more breakdowns recently. Customer service and top management is really nonchalant even when you bring this to their attention. When top management does not even reply to you when you point out issues you know no one gives a shit. I applaud them for the information they disseminate. But it's things like this that causes a company to lose customers. And if management doesn't bother about this...something is wrong. If things get worse I will consider canceling my subscription.

Barchart printed FED comments on economy blaming Trump for there problems. that is total babble and lies. that information is worthless. As is the people speaking it. The truth was they cut interest rates for political help in November for Boden/Harris camp-n.

I don't believe the %Chg data as shown on Barchart accounts for the impact of dividends/distributions. This would be most evident in the performance of bond funds since they make monthly distributions.
I looked at the data for 3 Vanguard bond funds and found the following one year gains as reported on Barchart and two others websites. The two others websites report identical information (as of the close on 1/31/25) and they account for the re-investment of dividends.

VFSUX VSCSX VBTLX
Vanguard 5.23% 5.07% 2.12%
Morningstar 5.23% 5.07% 2.12%
Barchart 1.08% 4.27% -1.04%

I believe other data reported on Barchart is dependent on this performance data, i.e., Wtd Alpha, Strength, Opinion, etc. So.... if the performance data is not reliable how can you depend on the other information provided for guidance?

In the assets shown above the performance of VFSUX and VSCSX are quite similar (as reported by Vanguard and Morningstar and accounting for reinvestment of dividends). However, the Wtd Alpha, Strength and Opinion on Barchart is quite different for these two assets because the one year performance data as shown on Barchart is significantly different (1.08% vs. 4.27%). Therefore, VSCSX is rated 96% Buy, while VFSUX is rated Hold. In actuality, VFSUX performed a bit better than VSCSX over multiuple time frames (1m, 3m, 1year) per Morningstar. Until Barchart can explain/correct these discrepancies, I do not feel comfortable relying on the other data on the website for investment guidance.

Simply reading articles from Barchart has left me soured on ever considering their services. In the most recent, columnist Caleb Naysmith speaks of Musk's supposedly consistently building billion dollar companies, and lists Tesla as an example. Musk is better known for parasitical takeovers of succesful companies, such as Twitter and Tesla, amongst numerous others, and hemmorhaging them from within, causing irreparable and unnecessary damage, along with multitudinous alleged drug use assertions coming from sources often at the very top of relevant companies. As Euronews reported, "Sources familiar with the allegations over possible drug use said the claims referred to drugs including LSD, cocaine, ecstasy & ketamine." Starting around the time of said allegations, and since, Elon seems to have exhibited a serious fall from a humane mindset, not to mention lowered intelligence, and a disturbing embrasure of authoritarianism & paranoia, and yet the article, ignoring all this, rather painted Musk's latest moves as practically genius somehow, something even most layman would find exceedingly laughable at this late date. Anyone painting such currently volatile machinations as worthy of emulating is not someone I want giving me business or financial advice, or services.

I have an account with Barchart for more than a decade. The site has lots of useful free info and some handy features such as downloadable (Excell) quotes for your portfolios. The rules as to what's free and what's not free on this site are simple and clear. I never tried their payed service - did not feel I need it due to my investment style, thus, no review of the payed service.

I cancelled within my trial period and they still charged me the yearly subscription. You can’t cancel your subscription on their website, you have to send them an email and they don’t send you proof of your cancelation. Update - they reversed the charge after 2 weeks of complaints plus a bad review on their site but not happy that they charged me anyway without informing me that they charged my credit card. Still because they refunded me I upgraded their reviews from 1 star to 3 stars but they must disclose more information and a way for you to cancel the subscription on the website if they wish to be a more legit site.

Only useful for predicting the past. Very poor indicating future.

Barchart gives the user an incredible amount of data.
Data that can be presented in many useful ways.
As a long term investor, swing and day trader I always have it on the screen. New to the market users will benefit from the included educational material.

The bottom Line is mainstream anything is not going to give you powerful tools that make money. PERIOD.

This Service is deliberately Sabotaged. All they have is pre defined main stream basic functions.

The filter function is way to restrictive with only very basic built in functions. NO EMA output from watch lists. STUNNING.

The service costs $200, it has the capability to be great, but its like having a car with no wheels. You are only allowed to have predefined functions such as 5 and 10 day moving averages. If you want a 6 day moving average from your watch list forget it. Beyond stupid.

Complain and say REALLY !!! and you get the standard we will look into adding the feature. If i have to ask for the ability to do EMA and SMA moving averages with any number then we are lost. It so basic and yet its not in the watch list output options

The graphs will export more detailed data. Yea guys if i spend many hrs exporting 100 graphs to post process data its useless in drilling down to the stocks meeting my criteria for a trade. The flexibility is needed in the filters and watch list outputs. NOT graphs.

Retail is competing with super computers and all i am allowed is 9 and 14 day data.

Bottom Line. This company has no intention of giving you the tools and flexibility you need. The advanced functions cost big dollars.

Their Buy Sell recommendations are based on longer terms tech indicators so when its 100% buy YOU NEED TO SELL. Using this info by default will lose you money. This site is designed for green retail suckers.

The free version is worthless, dumbed down and so restrictive, its not worth using. In summary 1980 tech.

If you want to be spammed like crazy from all types of investment scams then sign up with barchart.com.

While I signed up to download some of the data they offer the amount of SPAM I immediately started receiving was overwhelming.

They said they put me on a do-not-email list, but apparently, it was too late because the SPAM kept coming.

If you need data export it from TradingView, do not sign up with them and pay them so they can share your email address to be spammed.
