Coolhead is a Web Application I developed for a startup. The idea is to help investors to keep a cool head and stick to their investment strategy even in turbulent economic times. Users can create rules for a stock based on popular strategies (e.g. limit orders, using momentum or saving plans). Once a rule gets triggered, the user gets notified to execute the transaction. Users can also follow rules created by other investors.

Problems & Solutions
- Keeping a cool head in all economic situations
By creating rules for stocks in your portfolio or stocks you want to buy, you are less distracted by market fluctuations and tend to stick to more rational strategies.
- Being informed on what other people are doing
With Coolheads community feature, you can follow and observe what other investors do and copy their strategies.
Challenges during the Project
- First Fullstack Javascript Project
So far, I was used to writing Backend code in ruby. I wanted to try out a Fullstack JS project this time, which was challenging at first I quickly learnt to enjoy this new workflow.
- First TypeScript Project
I have noticed a strong shift in the developer scene and everyone was talking about the benefits of TypeScript. After getting used to it, I would never want to miss it in any future project.
