We're two software geeks trying to build our own trading simulator app for beginners which could teach some basics of technical analysis and won't be too boring. You can join the early test program here if interested: https://threeinvesteers.com/ Do you think this is a decent idea? So far we've solved the main technical challenges and built a solid backend solution for real-time prices, and also got the first feedback regarding the concept from some early users. We've polished the idea slightly using the feedback but still have some open questions. Would be great to hear your…

Hi HN! I’m a solo founder who trades options, and I got tired of paying $100–$300/month for a bunch of different tools: one for GEX, one for backtesting, one for scanning, another for trade ideas, another for volatility… it felt like death by a thousand subscriptions. So I built a single website that replaces all of them and made it completely free. For anyone who trades options, it’s basically all your favorite money making tools in one place, with a super generous free tier so that you never need to pay unless you’re a crazy power user. What it currently includes: - Options backtester…

Hi HN, My co‑founder and I just opened the public MVP of Epoch, a web app tool that lets you build, back-test, and deploy systematic trading strategies, without writing code. What works today Visual strategy designer – connect blocks or upload code for signals, sizing, risk, etc. Natural‐language input – e.g. “long when 20‑day momentum > 5 % and RSI < 30.” Native C++ backtesting engine – ~ crunch years of pre-cleaned Data lake out of the box – equities, futures, FX, crypto, all pre-cleaned Why we built it At Banks, HF, and prop shops we watched researchers spend days writing scripts just to…

Hi HN, I'm a solo dev and for the last few months I've been building Hikaro, a tool to find statistically significant trading signals for [e.g., US equities, crypto, forex]. I built this to solve my own problem: I was tired of backtests that looked great on paper but failed in practice. Simple metrics like "win rate" can be misleading, so I wanted a way to quickly tell if a signal's performance was genuine or just noise. Hikaro ingests daily market data and runs statistical analysis on various trading signals. The goal is to surface signals with strong properties, like: Low p-value: Evidence…

Hi Y'all, for those interested in trading using quantitative finance ideas, I'm open sourcing the software I made in the past 10+ years along with a series of tutorials on YouTube which gradually introduce the concepts. It's work in progress, for now I covered the foundations (stock price movements, option valuation, the arbitrage idea and the replication technique). Next I'll introduce how to import historical market data for stocks and options along with where you can buy it for a reasonable price (you can't find free historical options data) and some basic cleanup techniques because it…
