tradr 0.1.1

Terminal-first trading cockpit with Textual, Plotext charts, AI chat, and a live watchlist

Tradr

Tradr is a Textual-based terminal trading desk built by Wiseman Umanah. It combines a live ASCII candlestick chart, an AI-powered chat console, and a continuously updating watchlist sourced from Yahoo Finance screeners.

Features

• Live chart: Plotext candlesticks that refresh automatically and follow the app's light/dark theme.
• AI + commands: A chat console where quick commands (chart, watch, analyze, set-key, about, etc.) coexist with a Groq-backed assistant.
• Dynamic watchlist: Dozens of trending tickers, rotating through a cached universe, with keyboard focus + scrolling.

Getting Started

Linux/macOS via install script

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiseman-umanah/tradr/refs/heads/master/install.sh | bash

The script installs dependencies with uv, sets up entry points, and guides you through launching tradr-dev.

Windows / manual install

pip install tradr
# or, for development:
uv sync
uv run tradr

Set GROQ_API_KEY="gsk_..." (or run set-key <gsk_...> inside the app), press d to toggle the theme, type help to see every command, and run about to view author details.
