I built a stock app because I was tired of “serious” stock apps

Hey everyone,

I’m a full-stack developer and I follow the market every day, mostly out of curiosity.

After a while I got tired of stock apps that feel like Excel wearing a suit.

Lots of charts and indicators, but it’s still hard to answer simple questions like:

• who’s actually winning today?

• who’s getting crushed?

• is the market feeling good, bad, or just weird?

So I built a small side project called Stockhell 👻

It groups stocks into Heaven, Limbo, and Hell, so you can instantly see:

• the winners of the day

• the losers of the day

• the overall “mood” of the market

I also added a very simple daily prediction feature; you just pick up or down for a stock and see how it plays out.

No charts, no indicators, no pretending it’s science. Just a lightweight way to interact with the market.

No financial advice, no promises, no “get rich” stuff.

Just a fast, visual way to read the day.

It’s still early and very much a work in progress, but I’d genuinely love feedback, especially from people who also feel most stock apps take themselves way too seriously.

If you’re curious, this is it:

Happy to hear thoughts, criticism, or why this idea is dumb 😅
