Can I vibecode TradingWizard?
// buildable in a weekend, but real gaps stay open
A personal version is a fair weekend build: watch a short list, calculate indicators, explain a setup, and journal simulated trades. Replacing the full service is different. Broad market coverage, current prices, filings and news, continuous bot jobs, stale-data guards, alerts, synced history, and a maintained proof trail are ongoing data and operations work.
confidence: high
what it is: Market-analysis bots that explain setups and test them with fake money

Gioco editoriale: il verdetto dice se un agente può, l’indice se conviene.
What you build
Monitor a small watchlist, score transparent setups from current candles, explain the levels, and journal paper trades without connecting a broker.
what you need
- Node 22
- Twelve Data API key
- OpenAI-compatible API key
- local SQLite database
- scheduled background process
A useful one-bot version is buildable. The maintained multi-market service is not a one-shot project.
The prompt
A weekend with a coding agent. The gaps that stay are right below, under “what you lose”.
Build me a local personal market-analysis bot inspired by TradingWizard. Requirements:
- Node 22, TypeScript, Next.js App Router, better-sqlite3, technicalindicators,
and node-cron. Bind to localhost only.
- watchlist.json holds up to 10 stock or crypto symbols plus a 15m, 1h, or 1d
timeframe. Fetch candles from Twelve Data with the key in .env.local.
- Cache responses, respect provider limits, and show source plus last-updated time.
Stale or missing candles must block a new setup.
- Calculate EMA 20/50, RSI 14, ATR 14, recent support and resistance, and volume
change. Keep every setup rule in one documented rules.ts file.
- For each symbol return WAIT, LONG SETUP, or SHORT SETUP with entry zone, stop,
target, invalidation, confidence, and the exact rule hits behind the result.
- Use an OpenAI-compatible API only to turn the calculated facts into two plain
sentences. The model cannot change levels or invent facts. Work without it too.
- Add a paper journal. Confirm each simulated entry manually, size by a fixed risk
percentage, and update open trades from fresh candles. Never connect a broker.
- Dashboard: watchlist state, latest setup, stale-data warning, open paper trades,
closed results, and a per-symbol timeline. No profit promises.
- SQLite tables: candles, analyses, paper_trades, and scan_runs. Keep immutable scan
facts so every result can be explained later.
- Add npm run scan and a configurable cron. One failed symbol must not stop the rest.
- No accounts, cloud sync, telemetry, payments, live orders, or investment advice.
Do not scrape consumer websites.
- Include seeded fixtures and tests for stale-data blocking, rule calculations, risk
sizing, manual confirmation, and duplicate-scan idempotency.
- README with setup, API limits, backup/restore, cron examples, and the exact limits
of a personal build compared with a maintained multi-market service.Curated prompt: written and reviewed by hand for this app. In English on purpose — it is the language coding agents work best in.
What you lose
- maintained coverage across thousands of markets and data providers
- always-on bot scans, stale-data guards, and reliable alert delivery
- filings, news, sentiment, research, and broker-context integrations
- synced history, mobile access, chat controls, and account security
- the maintained bot proof trail and production operations
Why people still pay
You can vibe-code one useful personal bot. People pay to avoid maintaining the data feeds, background scans, stale-data checks, alerts, history, and evidence trail across many markets every day.
moat: Integrations Infrastructure scale Execution quality what a moat is
live market, news, and filing feeds + always-on bot operations + alert delivery
