Trading Places

Hey HN, We just launched Trading Places—a web-based tool that uses historical price behavior and volume to highlight “zones”—areas where price has repeatedly reacted in the past. Here’s what it does: -Detects the most reliable support/resistance zones for each stock -Monitors the market in real time to surface the highest-probability setups -Allows you to filter your results based on your own criteria (i.e. your trading style) -Provides real-time alerts when prices approach high-liquidity zones Built with: Python backend, React frontend, running on AWS. Still very much in…

Trading Places launched on May 29, 2025 with 9 votes, #2,448 of 7,905 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

What it does

Trading Places helps retail traders trade smarter with data-driven precision. By analyzing price history and key market dynamics, our algorithms identify zones where high reward/risk setups are most likely to occur—so you can trade with the odds on your side.

  • Create your own prediction market in two minutes2022 · manifold.markets · ▲84

    Hi HN! Excited to show off the project we've been working on for the last couple months. We started with an idea for a crazy twist on prediction markets: You come up with a question for traders to predict, and then decide the outcome yourself. For example, you could create a market on “Will my date with [X] go well?” Anyone can bet on it, and the bets create a forecast on the chance your date goes well. After the date is over, you get to judge the result and reward the traders who picked the correct side. There are so many ways for this mechanism to go wrong: the creator of the market can be…

    I built a tool to find trading signals that aren't just random luck2025 · hikaro.app · ▲9

    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…

  • FindGreatStocks.comNov 2025 · findgreatstocks.com · ▲7

    Hi HN I built FindGreatStocks.com to help investors focus on what actually matters: business quality and valuation, not hype or trading noise. The tool screens public companies using fundamentals like ROIC, free cash flow, margins, and valuation, so you can quickly spot high-quality businesses trading at reasonable prices. It also includes DCF and Reverse DCF views to understand what growth the market is pricing in. I’m a finance person (not a pro dev) and built this to solve my own problem after years of overtrading. Would love feedback from the HN community — especially on what metrics or…

  • Epoch.Trade2025 · epoch.trade · ▲8

    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, A friend and I built a tool that tracks the number of open jobs on public companies’ career pages over time. The idea was simple: hiring changes might hint at internal shifts before they fully show up in earnings or headlines. So we started collecting the job counts and visualizing them against stock price and market cap. You can explore it here: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jobstocks.ai It’s still very early, and we’re mainly trying to learn whether this data is actually useful for traders or analysts. Would love honest feedback on: whether the signal is interesting at all what’s missing from…

  • Tapflow 2.0▲1,125

    We built Tapflow for devs, designers, PMs, and tech folks who’ve been sitting on internal docs, templates, and systems — but never productized them. Upload a PDF, notes, or workshop deck, and Tapflow drafts a structured product (with chapters, teaser and pricing plans). It’s good for AI kits, onboarding guides, design systems, and frameworks. You can sell through Stripe, LemonSqueezy, or PayPal. Real-time collaboration is in early beta. No site builder, no LMS — clean design and just focused tools to ship. Fully bootstrapped and just launched on PH today →…
