Thanks! This tool focuses specifically on Price Action style daytrading. For algotrading there are many other tools that are way better suited for this task.

If averaging down is the key to your daytrading strategy, I suggest you rethink your strategy. There is a good saying - "never add to a losing position".

Thanks! That feature is on the todo list, might be added in following weeks.

Thank you very much! I don't see the feedback as negative, as what I've seen so far has been 95% overwhelmingly positive. My thesis has proven true - this tool is helping people. While HN might not be the most appropriate audience

People who strongly believe in EMH are usually theorists. There are way too many people who's practical track record is way too good to be attributed to chance. I believe markets are random most of the time, but there are moments when

Nothing is 100% and/or guaranteed in trading. It's a game of probabilities and risk management

To simplify - when you long, you bet on price going up. When you short, you bet on price going down. If you went short and price dropped 5%, your profit is 5% (minus commission, slippage, and some other stuff).

I've been doing a fair bit of promotion and marketing, because "you build it and they will come" rarely works, even if your stuff is good. But I'm sure any dev who has launched anything already knows that. I posted this

Does it really impact your practicing experience that significantly? This is an abstraction over market, it also doesn't have slippage and hundred other things. Anyway, size is on the feature list, will be added in following weeks.

Patterns are an oldschool Technical Analysis fallacy that blindly believes that X means up and Y down. More practical and successful approaches (Price Action) focus on statistical significance and recognizing market context and supply/

It's all about price and price action. A lot of trading styles don't require much history and don't care about the news - it's all calculated in before you know. A lot of traders believe price reflects all you need to kn

From what I know, there is basically only one thing they care about. Proven track record of making money and beating the market. Nothing else really counts. Except for young graduate quants - you need a degree from top tier school.

Successful traders come from very different backgrounds and use very different methods. There are a million ways to make money in this, but they all are very hard to find. Most of successful traders have very unique skillset. This is a perf

Thanks! I've now had 20+ people tell me they had this idea or even started it, or even launched it and got no traction. I needed this for myself, so was going to build this anyway. If this helps anyone else (already has, we have solid

Exactly, you should always be competing with the market. If you can't beat it, why even trade - just invest and spend time elsewhere.

If you place stop orders at predictable places (most traders do), they can be the sole reason why you lose money. Overall the market is expert in triggering your stoploss. And no, it's not manipulation or exchanges trying to make you b

"you may as well be doubling your bet every time you lose at roulette" - in trading it's called DCA or Dollar Cost Averaging. Works ok/good for very long term investments in stable assets like SP500 Index Funds. But for

I was looking for an app that helps you practice trading, something that would replay historical candles and let me trade on them at a point in time, kind of like a trading simulator. But I couldn’t find anything that suited my needs. I ask

I like the idea, especially due to recent Glassdoor misbehavings, but the ultimate question still remains - how can we know we can trust this app? What makes it more trustworthy than Glassdoor?
