“This collaboration will allow students to access a globally leading platform for financial analysis, encouraging practical learning and the application of knowledge in a real business environment. It will benefit all our students and PhD candidates”, said Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nikolay Netov, Vice-Dean of the Faculty.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Angel Marchev, Director of the Master’s program „Artificial Intelligence for Business and Finance“, expressed his satisfaction with the partnership, noting that the platform enables students to work with market data from leading global providers, real-time quotes, and access to a wealth of economic and business information. This, he added, brings students closer to real-life decision-making regarding financial assets, allowing them to simulate investment strategies in a well-founded manner and facilitating the learning of financial concepts and theories.

Álvaro Rú from TradingView’s Growth Department emphasized that the company provides one of the most powerful toolkits for traders and investors, combining advanced interactive charts with an extensive library of indicators, drawing tools, and analytical features. Users can easily customize chart layouts to match their strategies, track multiple assets simultaneously, and apply technical analysis with professional precision. Beyond charting, TradingView’s stock screener enables filtering of global market stocks by criteria such as price, performance, volume, valuation ratios, and fundamentals, making it a valuable resource for both short-term trading and long-term investing. With real-time data and personalized watchlists, the platform becomes a central hub for monitoring everything that drives the market.
