01 // THE PROBLEM

Paper trading demos usually break once more than a handful of users hit live quotes, rankings, and portfolio math at the same time.

02 // THE SOLUTION

Engineered an N-Tier React, Next.js, Node.js, and PostgreSQL trading app that simulates real-time execution and portfolio management for 1000+ concurrent users. Alpaca supplies live and historical quotes. Ranked tournaments use Elo on portfolio performance. GitHub Actions and Docker handle CI/CD.
