SimuTrader is an advanced, full-stack stock trading simulator designed to bridge the gap between financial theory and real-world trading experience. Built specifically for this challenge, the platform empowers users to learn portfolio management and trading strategies in a risk-free environment. At the core of SimuTrader is a robust Node.js and PostgreSQL backend that handles real-time market data simulations, calculates live profit/loss, and ensures atomic trade executions. The frontend features a sleek, minimalist dark-themed dashboard built with pure JavaScript and Chart.js, providing users with interactive performance charts, real-time stats, a holdings table, and a market movers widget. The standout feature of SimuTrader is our AI Financial Assistant, fully integrated with the IBM watsonx.ai granite-3-8b-instruct model. Rather than just offering a sandbox, the platform provides a smart mentor. Users can chat in natural language to understand complex trading concepts, analyze market trends, and receive educational guidance on portfolio diversification. By combining hands-on simulation with IBM's powerful generative AI, SimuTrader creates a comprehensive, interactive financial education ecosystem.
