    Hi all,

    so i am a sw dev, aaaand i am without a job so i have time build stuff.

    I was thinking about creating a web tool where one could upload his market data and run some analysis over it.

    Perhaps a tool to find best places for entry (for a break-out strategy or similar). So it would try a lot of price levels (distances to last price of last bar). But that is just an idea so far.

    So perhaps you have a better idea what could work or what is the demand for tools :)

    Anything goes (although simpler is better)

    thx

    Develop an addictive game as an app. You'll make way more millions than another analysis tool for trading.

    Maybe a trading app. It can spew confetti every time you put on a trade.

    What "tool" hasn't been developed already? It doesn't seem as if you have a new idea for useful market analysis so why bother?

    So you think you can create a good trading APP quickly? :banghead:

    I work in scala but that can translate to scala.js so the tool can run in web (it may or may not have an backend)
     
  8. You want to make a website that could read (in real time) from an excel sheet and have configurable charting and analytics.....

    Is this what you are talking about?

    I would be interested in that.

    an tool yes but not an trading app, that would take quite some time. Also games have graphics and design which i cant do really.

    I am also asking myself what is still missed, perhaps i should just run with my own idea (a tool to search for good break-out levels). Even if its out there somewhere i could make it better or more accessible (web rather then some desktop program) and also for free.

    hmm in real time ? so as your local file changes the web/chart should also change?
    what would be the benefit ? also i think its impossible to read the file "in a stream of changes"
    it could be perhaps done if it would not be your local file but on google drive or similar.
