HybridTrader: Community Beta
Weekly Update
Week 2 after go-live | End of Week 4, 2026
23 Jan–30 Jan 2026
The Week in One Sentence
Steady, clearer, smarter
We kept the platform stable, made analysis more trader-readable, added new data sources (including prediction market sentiment), and strengthened admin tooling to maintain quality as the community grows.
Platform Health
Stable Week
No performance issues or community problems reported.
Minor Hiccups
Live price data gaps affected AI accuracy. Admin redirect bug fixed quickly.
Zero Impact
Issues documented and resolved without affecting community users.
What Got Better for the Community
Clearer Market Write-Ups
Analysis now starts with big drivers first (macro and fundamentals), then technical detail. Feels more like a human analyst.
Less Repeat Noise
Duplicate trade alerts eliminated. Users see one clean alert on the dashboard.
Faster Trade Tracking
Monitoring checks every 5 minutes (previously 10), improving accuracy for entry hits and price extremes.
New Sentiment Lens
Polymarket integration built (testing phase). Real-time probability tape for key catalysts as early risk indicator.
Behind the Scenes: Building for Scale
01
Trade Journal (Internal Testing)
Workspace for capturing calls, reviewing outcomes, and scoring results. Testing with David to improve consistency.
02
Market Visualisation
Candlestick charting added so David judges how macro shows up in actual price action.
03
Resilient Pricing
Tiingo FX data integrated with auto-reconnection for redundancy and better coverage.
04
Safer Admin Login
Code-based login complete, deployed behind a switch. Ready when needed.
AI Model Testing: 60 to 7
Agnieszka tested 60 AI models over the weekend to improve output quality. We're now rotating 7 finalists to compare tone, clarity, and consistency before standardising on the strongest performers.

Key insight: Better models mean analysis that reads like a human trader wrote it—what matters, why it matters, what's next.
Owning the Mistakes
What We Learnt
Login journeys are deceptively fragile. We're tightening end-to-end checks so navigation can't regress quietly.
Time-based logic always needs explicit tests for empty or unexpected values. Both issues were resolved quickly without community impact.
Team note: Thrilled to have Pouria back and shipping again. Given the challenges in Iran right now, it means a lot to have him safe and contributing.
