Now, let’s take a closer look at TradeCaster with this video overview.
Project Overview
TradeCaster is a specialized streaming platform designed for traders, boasting a user base of more than 46,000 active participants. The platform was created for a US-based client, a professional stock trader who earned over half a million dollars in 2021 by livestreaming his trading sessions.
On TradeCaster, professional traders do more than just offer advice – they share their screens and trade stocks live, allowing viewers to follow along and potentially profit in real-time. This interactive experience enables users to see firsthand how trades are executed and to replicate the strategies of successful traders.
We developed a robust system that automatically scales to accommodate spikes in demand, allowing streamers to broadcast live to thousands of viewers without interruption.
The platform also offers personalized features, such as the ability to view a streamer's profile, see the stocks they trade, and learn about their trading strategies. Users can subscribe to their favorite streamers to receive updates on upcoming broadcasts.
Additionally, TradeCaster includes a donation feature, enabling users to support their favorite streamers directly during live sessions.
Technologies We Used
- JavaScript, React – for creating user interfaces
- Node.js – for running JavaScript on the server and creating APIs for interaction between the client and server sides
- MongoDB – for storing and managing user data
- WebRTC – for real-time video and audio broadcasts
