Questions
Can Flourish export MP4?
Not on the self-serve plans. Video export is an enterprise feature.
Is Flourish still the better tool?
For interactive charts on a web page, yes. More chart types, any data, better embeds. Stay with Flourish if you publish a page.
What can chartrace load without a file?
Anything Yahoo Finance covers: stocks, ETFs, indices, funds, crypto and commodities. Type the symbol and the daily prices come with it.
What if my data is not a market price?
Upload a CSV on Pro, the same as in Flourish. chartrace only saves you time on market data, where the symbol replaces the file.
Do I have to sign up to try it?
Not to build one. Open the editor, pick two symbols and render. A free account saves the file. Pay when you want the mark gone or the Pro controls on.
