thankyou so much for writing such a detailed comment
i really don't see this as a bloomberg killer, this is more like terminal for indiviual investors, i really feel like everyone sees things as black and white, on one hand you have your hedgefund investors and on the other you have wallstreetbets who dont care about fundamentals, this is for the middle ground, like a value investor who looks at fundamentals and invest for the long term, even the infamous face of the game stop saga DFV was a hardcore value investor
i really am going after that crowd, they don't need those advanced data youre refering to like they're not gonna trade spreads or swaps, so operating terminals backend would be magnitudes cheaper, which i will pass down to my customers, you made really great points i just view this as completely different product
debt and mergers are coming soon! thankyou for the kind words man, you're awesome
and to be honest this won't match the functionality bloomberg has, as I designed it towards more of a non institutional crowd so the focus would be more on just equities and indexes mainly, i simplified as much as possible with this one
Thankyou so much for the support and kind words guys <3 so I'm making it completely free for next 3 days!! signup and no credit required!! everyone gets a pro account
The data is all publicly available, what we are offering you is the time you'd save, and the analysis for example we offer industry averages, that is we calculated averages of industries and different sectors we you can do by your your but would take so much of your valuable, you can in the same way look up macro economic data, but you can look them up one by one, its painful and you can't really compare them and see the relationship between them to understand what'd going on
this exactly was I was thinking, I really wanna build this into something with which everyone, even everyday people can do advance level analysis, but it just is not possible by keeping it free of cost
Thankyou i'm actually planing on doing that aswell, as of now you can try it out without signing up by clicking on get started button, you get perform search and terminal queries free of cost, but what you're suggesting is an amazing idea aswell, increase the number of credits once people signup thankyou so much for that i will work on implementing that
Yes, OpenBB is an amazing initiative but we are very different in the way we focus on user experience and journey tho we have terminal in the name its very much not like a terminal,
its more like a search engine very intuitive, very user-friendly, very fast,
all you have to do is search the stock name, and you'll have access to everything from annual reports to transcripts in less than 10 secs, that is not the case in OpenBB
we have better powerful charts, we have better industry-level data, we have a macro overview section where you can analyze everything on a macroeconomic scale, we also have a biweekly digest helping our user navigate upcoming events if there is any, and important alerts on events like fomc meetings and such, and much more
we do also have a terminal interface, where you can type commands to access everything even faster!!
