I created an app that helps you practice trading

I was looking for an app that helps you practice trading, something like replay historical candles and 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 asked trading community for existing solutions, and there were some suggestions: Most of them were some form of paper-trading, which is not at all what I was looking for, because it has a very slow feedback loop (make a trade, wait for hours/days). Most notable was TD Ameritrade On-Demand feature, and then some smaller apps, but I wanted something that's super easy/quick to start with and use. I wanted something that combines all the things that I'm looking for: Quick start in seconds - no download, install, registration, etc. Easy to use UI/UX. Minimal bias - accomplished by picking random asset/time and hiding them. Make trades and fast forward time for a super quick feedback/learning loop. So I created it - TradingGYM. It's an early version, but I wanted to get the MVP out ASAP and see if this is useful to other traders as well. The Mobile version has a more lightweight UI, but in Desktop you can change some settings like candle size and commission. Tech stack for the Devs: Node/React (in TypeScript). Postgres DB. Hosted w/ Vercel (previously Zeit/Now). ECharts for charting. Any suggestions are very much welcome. Super interested to see if this helps anyone improve their performance. https://i.redd.it/hlxzh0gj1nz51.gif submitted by /u/__deandre [link] [comments]
