Sparklines, bid/ask spreads, and market phase awareness (premarket, regular, extended). The market never stops, and neither does this monitor.
Slotz Visualizer
An interactive visualization of grid trading — the slotz algorithm generates laddered buy/sell order pairs across a price range. Each buy below current price is paired with a sell above, capturing profit in the spread. Configure sell profit %, step distance, quantity, and grid depth. Watch orders stack across the canvas with real-time price overlay, sparklines from historical data, and profit calculations. Inspired by studying the architecture of automated grid traders that run every minute during market hours.

Measures spread quality, ranks tickers by tightest execution cost, calculates how much of slotz grid profit gets consumed by the spread. The invisible cost that separates paper profits from real ones.
Inverse Pair Dashboard
Four leveraged bull/bear pairs tracked in real-time — TQQQ↔SQQQ, SPXL↔SPXS, UDOW↔SDOW, TNA↔TZA. When the reference index z-score exceeds 1.5σ, the system favors the bear. Below -0.5σ, the bull. A z-score gauge, momentum meters, and RSI for each side. The cwont inverse logic — visualized and made legible.
Grid Backtest Engine
