What Anssi is building

The idea

I am building a charting tool in the style of TradingView called Spot Canvas.

How do we differentiate from TradingView?

- The Best UX: TradingView is difficult and cumbersome
- Chart API: We treat the chart as a web component that can be scripted and controlled from the embedding page
- Theming: Advanced stuff like background images, gradients
- Cool animations: Rising candles are shining and pumping in green
- Custom branding

Following core features are currently under development:

- Indicators
- Technical Analysis tools
- User accounts with settings etc.
- Possibility to save chart layouts
- Asset library for saving favorite trading pairs

When these are ready, we can start selling the basic subscription.

Spot Canvas is positioned…

How to promote an new web application?“Post in following: - Hacker News - Product Hunt - Reddit and relevant subreddits there Don't post just once, but several times until you get some traction. Check out the book "Build" by Pieter Levels has some good info about this.”How to find a developer who is into streetwear?“Why is it necessary that the technical co-founder is into streetwear? I would think it's more important the the co-founder is into tech and knows how to build the technical parts of the startup. If the startup is about streetwear then someone in the startup probably needs to know about streetwear :-) I would argue that it's better if someone in the business side of things concentrates on that.”
