Inspiration

As a CS and Maths duo, we saw that institutional "Whale" data is gatekept by expensive terminals. We wanted to build a "Machine of Loving Grace" that decompiles this power into Financial Literacy for retail savers in emerging markets.

What it does

WhaleWatcher is a live tutor that connects to exchange WebSockets. It uses Claude to "translate" high-velocity trade data into real-time, human-readable lessons on market microstructure and institutional tactics.

How we built it

Data Engine: High-performance listener for raw JSON trade streams. AI Reasoning: Claude 3.5 Sonnet Math Heuristics: Identifying significance when trade volume V > \sigma{15s} UI: A triple-pane dashboard.

Challenges we ran into

Managing Data Velocity vs. Reasoning Latency. Trying to implement a Significance Filter to ensure Claude only analyzed the most impactful moves, preventing API rate limits.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We built a working prototype that turns a "Black Box" into a transparent classroom.

What we learned

We also refined our ability to build high-stakes data pipelines under extreme time pressure.

What's next for WhaleWatcher

Integrating Proofs to verify the data's integrity and expanding to multi-chain feeds to provide for all decentralized markets.
