Owl Street

An AI-powered trading platform for learning and exploration — live pricing charts for US equities, paper trading, price alerts, and AI-driven market insights. Think TradingView, built by Temple students.

The Problem

Most professional trading platforms like TradingView are powerful but expensive or intimidating for students just getting into finance and investing. There’s no hands-on tool built for learning — where you can explore real markets, practice trades, and build intuition without risking real money.

What We’re Building

A web-based trading platform that combines live market data with AI-powered insights:

  • Live charts — real-time and historical pricing charts for US equities, with technical indicators
  • Paper trading — place simulated buy/sell orders with a virtual account to practice strategies risk-free
  • Price alerts — set custom alerts when a stock hits a target price or crosses a moving average
  • AI market assistant — ask questions about a stock, get summaries of recent news, and request plain-English explanations of chart patterns
  • Portfolio tracker — monitor your paper positions and P&L over time

Why This Fits OpenOwls

Finance is one of the biggest domains being transformed by AI right now. Owl Street sits at the intersection of real-time data engineering, modern frontend development, and LLM-powered analysis — a rich technical challenge with a product that students and faculty in both CIS and the Fox School of Business can actually use.
