Wall Street Analyst: AI-Powered Trading Platform

Cross-platform AI trading platform with Bedrock-powered stock selection, automated execution via Alpaca API, and real-time portfolio tracking.

The Challenge

Retail traders lack access to the AI-powered analysis tools that institutional investors use. Most trading apps provide basic charting and order execution but no intelligent stock selection, automated risk management, or AI-driven portfolio analysis.

The Solution

Wall Street Analyst is a cross-platform AI trading platform that combines Bedrock-powered stock analysis with automated trade execution. The AI evaluates market conditions, selects stocks based on configurable strategies, executes trades via the Alpaca API, and manages risk with trailing stop-losses.

Key Features

AI Stock Selection: Bedrock Nova Pro analyzes market data and selects stocks based on configurable trading strategies
Automated Trade Execution: Direct integration with Alpaca API for live and paper trading
Trailing Stop-Losses: Automated risk management that adjusts stop-loss levels as positions gain value
Real-Time P&L Tracking: Live portfolio performance monitoring across all positions
Cross-Platform: Android app (Kotlin/Jetpack Compose) and Next.js web dashboard
Paper Trading Mode: Test strategies with simulated trades before risking real capital
Biometric Authentication: Fingerprint/face unlock for secure access on mobile
