Trading Journal Full App

A full-stack Next.js app with:

• Single-user login
• Profile onboarding
• Starting capital based analytics
• Trading journal with ticker, option type, strike, setup, entry, exit, quantity
• Expense tracker
• Navbar
• Light / dark mode
• MongoDB persistence
• Vercel-ready frontend/API deployment

1) Install

npm install

2) Create .env.local

Copy .env.example to .env.local and fill in your values.

cp .env.example .env.local

3) Run locally

npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000

4) Login

Use the same values you put in:

• ADMIN_EMAIL
• ADMIN_PASSWORD

5) First-use flow

After login, the app checks if a profile exists. If not, it sends you to onboarding to set:

• display name
• starting capital
• monthly expense budget
• target daily percent

That starting capital becomes the base for compounding and recovery analytics.

6) Deploy on Vercel

• Push to GitHub
• Import repo into Vercel
• Add the same environment variables in Vercel
• Deploy

Notes

This project uses Tailwind + reusable UI components styled in a shadcn-like pattern.
