Trading platform, 2024

Nitro Trader / Launcher

Full custom web app | Full build | Python, WebSocket, React, Postgres

Full Custom tier: scoped and quoted after discovery

Real-time trading signal platform with WebSocket feeds, strategy management, risk controls, and a desktop launcher for configuration.

The problem

Traders needed a way to receive and act on signals from multiple channels in real-time. Existing tools were fragmented: Discord for alerts, spreadsheets for tracking, manual execution for trades.

What I built

Built a dual-server architecture (HTTP API + WebSocket) with user sessions, channel subscriptions, strategy templates (trailing stops, take-profit combos), risk parameter management, and simulation mode. Desktop launcher handles config and updates.

Results

Sub-second signal delivery via WebSocket
Six strategy types with full customization
Simulation mode for risk-free testing before going live
