Ana wants one place to understand SpaceX-related market movement. Before SpacePulse, she bounced between charts, news tabs, and search results, often missing the connection between a headline and the price reaction that followed.

With SpacePulse, she opens a single dashboard and immediately sees the trend, technical signals, and the news items most likely to matter. When a major catalyst hits, she gets an alert, checks the chart context, and decides whether to act or wait with confidence.

For the business, this creates a sticky workflow that brings users back multiple times per day. The app becomes valuable not just as a quote screen, but as a habit-forming market intelligence tool.

User-Centric Metrics

  • 70 percent of active users view the dashboard at least 4 times per week.
  • 50 percent of users save at least one watchlist within the first session.

  • Average time to first useful insight stays under 2 minutes.
  • News items opened from the feed have a click-through rate above 20 percent.
  • Alert satisfaction rating averages 4.3 out of 5 or higher.

Business Metrics

  • Organic acquisition accounts for 40 percent of new signups by month 9.

Technical Metrics

  • API uptime stays above 99.9 percent monthly.
  • Dashboard initial load time stays under 2.5 seconds on broadband.
  • Technical calculations complete within 300 milliseconds after data refresh.
  • All sensitive user data is encrypted in transit and at rest.

  • track dashboard_loaded with instrument, timeframe, and data freshness
  • track indicator_toggled with indicator name and timeframe
  • track news_item_opened with source, category, and relevance score
  • track alert_created and alert_triggered with rule type and channel
  • track watchlist_item_added with instrument type and portfolio context

Technical Needs

  • Frontend: Next.js with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS for a fast, responsive UI.
  • Backend: Node.js API layer with REST or tRPC for app data and user settings.
  • Data processing: scheduled jobs for OHLCV normalization and indicator calculation.
  • Database: PostgreSQL for users, watchlists, alerts, and content metadata.
  • Cache and queues: Redis for rate-limiting, caching, and alert job coordination.
  • Charting: lightweight interactive charting library such as TradingView Lightweight Charts or Recharts.
  • Observability: Sentry for error reporting and OpenTelemetry-compatible tracing.

Integration Points

  • Market data provider such as Polygon.io, Alpha Vantage, or Twelve Data for quotes and OHLCV.
  • News source aggregation via NewsAPI, RSS feeds, and curated finance outlets.
  • Authentication through Google OAuth and email magic links or Auth.js.
  • Notification delivery through SendGrid for email and Firebase Cloud Messaging for push.
  • Analytics through PostHog or Amplitude for product event tracking.

Data Storage & Privacy

  • Store only necessary personal data: email, auth identity, preferences, and alert rules.
  • Encrypt sensitive data in transit with TLS 1.2+ and at rest using managed cloud encryption.
  • Provide account deletion and data export to support GDPR and CCPA requests.
  • Use source attribution and caching rules that comply with third-party API terms.
  • Separate user identity data from market content data to reduce privacy risk.

Scalability & Performance

  • Cache quotes, headlines, and computed indicators to reduce repeated API calls.
  • Use background workers for news ingestion and indicator refresh so the UI stays responsive.
  • Design for burst traffic during major market events with horizontal autoscaling.
  • Gracefully degrade when market data providers are rate-limited or temporarily unavailable.

Potential Challenges

  • SpaceX-related tradable exposure may not map cleanly to one public ticker; mitigate by supporting proxy instruments and clear labeling.
  • Market data APIs can be costly or rate-limited; mitigate with caching, throttling, and a paid provider fallback.
  • News relevance can be noisy; mitigate with source ranking, deduplication, and manual curation rules.
  • Technical signals can be misread as advice; mitigate with educational labels, disclaimers, and transparent methodology.
  • Alert fatigue can hurt retention; mitigate with cool-down windows, batching, and user-tuned frequency controls.

Build a production-ready web app called SpacePulse for tracking SpaceX-related market movement.

Core product:
A market intelligence dashboard that shows live quotes, interactive technical charts, technical indicators, curated news/catalyst feeds, and user-defined alerts for SpaceX-related exposure. The app should support guest browsing, authenticated watchlists, saved alerts, and personalization.

Primary screens and flows:
1. Public landing page with a live market snapshot and CTA to sign up.
2. Auth flow with email magic link and Google OAuth.
3. Main dashboard showing latest quote, daily change, chart, RSI, MACD, moving averages, volume, and freshness timestamp.
4. News feed with source attribution, deduplication, relevance sorting, and category filters.
5. Alerts screen to create/edit rules for price, percentage move, volume spike, and news keywords.
6. Watchlists screen to save instruments and preferred timeframes.
7. Settings screen for notification preferences, theme, and account deletion/export.

Data model:
User(id, email, name, authProvider, createdAt, preferences)
Watchlist(id, userId, name)
WatchlistItem(id, watchlistId, symbol, label, type)
AlertRule(id, userId, symbol, ruleType, threshold, timeframe, channel, cooldownMinutes, enabled)
Quote(id, symbol, price, changePercent, open, high, low, volume, timestamp)
Candle(id, symbol, interval, open, high, low, close, volume, timestamp)
IndicatorSnapshot(id, symbol, timeframe, rsi14, macd, signal, ma20, ma50, ma200, trendLabel, timestamp)
NewsItem(id, title, source, url, publishedAt, category, relevanceScore, impactLabel, dedupGroupId)
Event(id, symbol, type, title, timestamp, sourceId)
Notification(id, userId, alertRuleId, status, sentAt, channel)

Implementation requirements:
Use Next.js with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Postgres, Prisma, Redis, and a lightweight charting library like TradingView Lightweight Charts. Build an API layer for quotes, indicators, news, alerts, and user settings. Add background jobs to ingest market data and news, compute indicators, and trigger alerts. Integrate Google OAuth, email notifications with SendGrid, push notifications with Firebase Cloud Messaging, and analytics with PostHog. Add Sentry for error tracking.

Quality requirements:
Make the UI fast, mobile responsive, accessible, and data-freshness aware. Show loading skeletons, stale-data warnings, empty states, and graceful degradation if a data provider fails. Include strict validation for alert thresholds and deduplicate repeated news/alerts. Add account deletion and data export for GDPR/CCPA readiness.

Deliver a clean MVP first, then add alerts, personalization, exports, and performance hardening.
