Trading Simulator

This project is an interactive trading simulator that allows users to test stock prediction models in a real-time simulated environment. The platform allows users to upload and evaluate a variety of machine learning models against historical stock data.

To set it up, first clone the repo as follows:

git clone https://github.com/zikompo/Trading_Simulator.git

Then open the repo in an IDE of your choice.

Then, open the terminal and run the following commands:

pip install -r requirements.txt

cd stock-predictor-frontend

npm i

npm start

If you get an error ERR_OSSL_EVP_UNSUPPORTED, then you should run the following command in your terminal:

export export NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider  

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser.

Then, open a new terminal and run the following:

cd backend

python3 app.py

From here, you will be able to use the trading simulator in the browser.
