Introduction

Building an AI-powered portfolio tracker allows you to monitor your investments in real-time with intelligent insights. This guide will walk you through creating a complete portfolio tracking application using BullishAI's API.

You'll learn how to integrate real-time stock data, implement AI-powered analysis, set up automated alerts, and create an intuitive dashboard for tracking your portfolio performance.

Prerequisites

• Basic knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript
• Familiarity with React or Next.js
• BullishAI API access (free tier available)
• Node.js and npm installed

Step 1: Set Up Your Project

Start by creating a new Next.js project and installing the necessary dependencies. Set up your API client to connect to BullishAI's endpoints for real-time market data.

Configure environment variables for your API keys and set up authentication to securely access your portfolio data.

Step 2: Integrate Real-Time Data

Use BullishAI's quote and chart APIs to fetch live stock prices and historical data. Implement polling mechanisms to keep your portfolio values updated in real-time during market hours.

Handle market sessions (pre-market, regular hours, after-hours) to provide accurate data availability indicators to your users.

Step 3: Add AI-Powered Insights

Integrate BullishAI's AI chat endpoint to provide intelligent explanations of market movements, portfolio analysis, and investment recommendations.

Display AI-generated insights alongside your portfolio data to help users understand their investment performance and make informed decisions.
