Current capability
A practical paper-trading workspace inside Discord.
Haystack provides the basic tools needed to test market ideas, record simulated activity, and review results without connecting to a brokerage account.
Paper buys and sells
Records practice transactions using market or manually supplied prices without placing real orders.
Portfolio tracking
Maintains simulated cash, positions, cost basis, and estimated portfolio value for each user.
Trade history
Preserves recent simulated activity so users can review past decisions and outcomes.
Community leaderboard
Compares simulated portfolio results within a Discord server for educational and community use.
User data controls
Provides a command for users to remove their stored Haystack paper-portfolio data.
Property review
Educational tools for organizing property assumptions.
Property features currently use values entered by the user. They do not represent a live listing feed, appraisal, lending decision, or automated investment recommendation.
Estimate
Mortgage cost review
Calculates an educational monthly estimate using price, down payment, rate, term, taxes, insurance, and HOA assumptions.
Compare
Manual property scoring
Organizes price, estimated costs, rent or short-term revenue, and other user-provided factors into a review score.
Track
Saved property watches
Stores manually defined locations, price ranges, strategies, and review thresholds for later reference.
Review workflow
Explore, simulate, and learn from the result.
Haystack is designed to support structured practice rather than prediction or automated financial authority.
Explore
Collect the relevant inputs
Review market data or enter property assumptions before creating a simulated position or estimate.
Simulate
Record a practice decision
Use paper transactions and educational calculators without sending an order or connecting a financial account.
Review
Compare evidence over time
Revisit portfolio history, simulated performance, and saved assumptions to learn from prior decisions.
Product boundary
Financial practice must remain clearly separated from advice.
Haystack provides simulations and educational calculations. Users remain responsible for verifying information and making their own financial, property, legal, tax, lending, and insurance decisions.
Trading boundary
No brokerage or real-money execution
Haystack does not connect to brokerage accounts, custody funds, place market orders, or execute real financial transactions.
Advice boundary
Educational estimates only
Quotes, simulations, scores, and property calculations are not financial, investment, legal, tax, lending, or real-estate advice.
Active project
