Are you a newbie stock investor?
A community-based platform for stock investors to discuss the market, share investment ideas, and learn from each other. This project is part of the IDM Showcase Spring 2021
What is Stocker?
As an amateur investor, I don’t know where to start and where to look…
The pandemic had driven stock newbies into the market. As a newbie stock investor, I find myself not knowing where and how to look for information, news, and investing ideas on different platforms. Stocker provides a platform for investors of various experience levels to share and discuss their investment insights freely. With posts organized by topics and stock tickers, users can easily navigate and engage with similar investors.
The Common Ground 
Among Amateur Investors vs Experienced Investors
Users find investment ideas through:
• Community groups like Reddit threads and Facebook groups
• Social media channelsUsers are open to hearing about new investment tips and stocks
‍
• Users find it motivating to hear feedback from others about their investment ideas
Organized Feed
Explore a customized feed by enabling users to personalize their interests while staying abreast of trending topics; this streamlined experience includes post titles and content previews to alleviate information overload on the main feed.
One-Stop-Shop For Your Investments
Providing users the ability to follow specific stock tickers and hashtags of interest, with each stock ticker featuring a real-time chart for a quick look at the current price without leaving the app.
Analyze Stock Trends at Ease
Enhance your stock analysis on Stocker by drawing trend lines directly on the app, as it takes a snapshot of the current chart and embeds it into your post for easy sharing and in-depth analysis.
Leverage the power of online community
As a member of the newbie stock investor community, I thoroughly enjoyed working on this project over the past few months. I have always envisioned having a stock community that can support me as I learn to invest, and I am pleased that I was able to execute my ideas and bring them to life. This project is a significant part of my senior project, contributing to the completion of my bachelor's degree.
