Savvily

Keep in mind that I'm not using this tool to forecast the future stocks' prices. I'm just using this to assess risks and compare across different stocks and see for the same amount of money and risk what stocks I invest should invest to maximize my returns.

2018-08-01 after market report: https://getsavvily.com/index.html?td=2018_08_01

You can tweak the td parameter to get the after market report for different dates. This report is generated from billion-cap company list from Nasdaq and NYSE exchanges.

Probabilities are generated from Monte Carlo Simulations (params: 1000 runs per stock, each simulate will sample future 10 trading days' daily return)

I closed the old getsavvily.com about a month ago, since then I have doing some trading on the stock market.

I'm not using anything fancy algorithms to do forecasting. Instead, I just put up some spreadsheet and evaluated how much I should invest on certain stocks and what the risks were(how much I will lose in the worst case). This landed $5600 in my bank account now.

Now the strategy is still running and will update every couple of weeks here. I don't wanna to take on too much risk. My goal is to get about 5% returns every month consistently.

The server and database were terminated. Here are the stats of the project:

• 20 users signed up.
• 1 paying user.

Few things I learned when starting a project:

1. Create a tool that I can use everyday. Be honest with myself, I found Savvily wasn't something I would use everyday. I tried using it for the first 3 days, and I wasn't happy with the experience and the content from the site. I try fixing it and found some alternatives (Feedly, Medium, Flipboard, Inoreader) can offer tons of content.

2. Make something I am willing to pay someone's to do it for me. If there is a tool/site online can solve your problem, just use it first. If it solves part of your problem, then evaluate how much you are willing to pay someone's to solve the other part of the problem. You can save tons a lot of time and efforts. Don't try to invest something you don't need.

Try to allocate my time to get that fixed in these couple of days.

June

1. Reaching 50 users by the end of June, 5 of them are paying users.
2. Writing up the whole process and thinking.

I was first time using IH, and accidentally opened two threads. Sorry for the confusion. The first one I had was on: https://www.indiehackers.com/post/31484d8a29

Guys,

I always find it very difficult to find high quality articles online. You either need to set up keywords to track using Google Alert, which can be a lot of effort; or it will take time to find really good bloggers/topics to follow (Twitter, Medium, Pinterest, Feedly and many others). I want to make this easier. With my product Savvily, what you do is just browse like normal, and interesting articles will come to you instead.

By collecting your browse history(a chrome extension will do the work for you automatically), the recommendation model recommends articles based on your reading preference. So it is not bounded within certain websites or certain topics. Instead, you'll be able to explore unlimited articles.

I spent the last 10 days to code up this idea. Feedback and suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance.
