Inspiration

We got our inspiration straight from Bloomberg Terminals! A sheer gigantic amount of information readily available at the touch of your fingertips. Do You know have what it takes to take the right action in the face of vast uncertainty?

What it does

OptiKER is a highly efficient trading platform, capable of handling lots of traffic. Use the corresponding app to start trading now! What makes it unique is a simulation of random, global events that have major impacts on the financial markets. Act quickly: buy, sell, or decide that no action is the best action - just figure out a way to handle the Chaos!

How we built it

An efficient C++ backend serves a React.js app.

Challenges we ran into

Never-ending problems configuring libraries for C++

Accomplishments that we're proud of

A completely over-engineered but well-designed interface to connect the backend with our app via protobufs.

What we learned

Seg Faults = pain

What's next for Team OptiKER

Improvements to the simulation and expansions of more features...
