CopyTrading: Discord to broker tool. Copies Discord stock calls into Alpaca accounts.

In simple English

This program reads stock trading signals from Discord chat rooms. It turns those messages into buy and sell orders. It sends the orders to your trading account automatically. You can set limits to protect your money from large losses. It runs as a desktop application on Apple computers.

What it is

A native macOS application written in Python and SwiftUI that connects Discord chat channels to the Alpaca (a brokerage platform for algorithmic trading via API) trading service. It includes a local SQLite (a lightweight database stored in a single file on your disk) database, an AI assistant, and risk management rules.

What it is good for

People who follow stock traders on Discord and want to execute those trades instantly without typing them out manually.
