Quick background: I used to code. Studied it in school, wrote some projects, but eventually convinced myself I wasn't cut out for it. Too slow, too many bugs, imposter syndrome — the usual story. So I pivoted, ended up as an investment associate at an early-stage angel fund, and haven't written real code in years. Fast forward to now. I'm a Buffett nerd — big believer in compound interest as a mental model for life. I run compound interest calculations constantly. Not because I need to, but because watching numbers grow over 30-40 years keeps me patient when markets get wild. It's basically…

Hi HN, A while ago I had a mildly depressing realization. Back in 2010, I had around $60k. Like a "responsible" person, I used it as a down payment on an apartment. Recently, out of curiosity, I calculated what would have happened if I had instead put that money into NVIDIA stock. I should probably add some context. For over 10 years I've worked as a developer on trading platforms and financial infrastructure. I made a rule for myself - never trade on the market. In 2015, when Bitcoin traded about 300 usd, my brother and I were talking about whether it was a bubble. He made a bold claim that…

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…

Today we're releasing Quant (https://sourcetable.com/quant), an AI analyst that connects to 600+ exchanges with 1000+ built-in analysis tools. Andrew, CTO, has a background building software at hedge funds so we put his knowledge and experience into this application. The core idea: if you already know spreadsheets, you shouldn't need to learn Python/R or set up complex infrastructure to do serious quantitative analysis. One way to think of Quant is a low-cost Bloomberg Terminal alternative. What's inside: Portfolio optimization (including Dalio's risk parity approach),…

Built a free open source agentic CLI tool for financial modeling & analysis. Hadn't played around with real equity valuation modeling for awhile and wanted to build tooling to get myself back into the game. Bull.sh lets you query & store 10-Qs, 10-K in a local vector store to chat with them, build investment thesis from scratch or build full framework models through the CLI to export into excel. It's open source, just requires your own Anthropic API key and (optionally) AlphaVantage Free API key if you want save some tokens from scraping. Feel free to play around with it. Some ideas I have…

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, I'm Robert Karl, a software engineer, cryptocurrency trader, and creator of CBR ( https://CostBasis.Report/ ). I wanted to report gains from trading to tax authorities, but found existing crypto-tax solutions were not great. There are some very fully featured tax solutions out there. I believe there is even a YC company that can solve this problem. However, I found that for my use case, which includes less than 100 trades, the existing sites would charge me between $150 and $800 for a handful of PDFs. I wasn't sure that made sense given the server-side costs to generate…
