Nightrader

Nightrader is a robust stock trading platform built on microservices architecture. We leverage Docker for orchestration, Go and Gin-Gonic for the backend API, PostgreSQL for our database, and React with Daisy UI and TailwindCSS for the frontend.

Services

• Engine (Port 8585): Implements the matching engine, which processes buy and sell orders using a Pro Rata algorithm.
• Setup (Port 8080): Initializes Nightrader by adding and creating stocks for market use.
• Database (Port 5432): Handles table creation and data preprocessing, including password encryption.
• Authentication (Port 8888): Verifies user credentials against the database and generates session tokens that expire after a fixed time.
• Transaction (Port 5433): Manages client-exchange interactions, such as fetching current market prices and funding user balances.
• Frontend (Port 3000): The user-facing application that facilitates interactions with the exchange.
