Flow feed
News terminal
Hey IndieHackers 👋
I've been trading for [X years], and one thing always bugged me: real-time financial info (crypto, forex, stocks, macro) is either locked behind insanely expensive tools (Bloomberg Terminal = ~$24k/year) or scattered across 15 different apps.
So I built FlowFeed (flowfeed.cc) — a free, real-time financial news terminal that puts everything in one place: crypto, forex, stocks, commodities, economic calendar, market sentiment.
Where I'm at:
news items processed/day (breaking, daily, macro)
visitors since launch
Stack: Lovable + Supabase, built in [X weeks]
The hardest part so far:
[A real friction point — e.g. content moderation, sourcing reliable news feeds, SEO, etc. Tell a real problem you hit, it builds credibility]
What surprised me:
[An unexpected insight — e.g. a feature users loved that you thought would be secondary]
I'm building this solo, so any feedback is welcome — especially if you're a trader or have launched something in fintech/data before, I'd love your take on what to prioritize next (monetization, which features to build next, etc.)

I think the opportunity isn't replacing Bloomberg—it's reducing context switching.
If traders can stay in one place instead of stitching together information from multiple sources, that's a much clearer value proposition than being a cheaper terminal.
