NVSTly (Trade Hub) v2.0: Redefining Social Trading for Traders and Investors

edited by rich on Oct 4, 2023

If you've been actively using our Discord bot, you've likely already noticed the multitude of changes and improvements we've implemented in our latest release, v2.0. We have made significant strides to address the issues experienced in v1.0. To enhance our entire platform, we undertook a ground-up rewrite of all the code—now comprising a substantial 40,411 lines of code—spanning the bot, web app, and backend. Our primary objective for v2.0 was to deliver a highly responsive web application that processes actions in under a second, integrated seamlessly with Discord while optimizing bot responses, all the while supporting a wide range of assets including stocks, futures, forex, and cryptocurrencies. This vision has materialized into a seamless, rapid, and interactive social trading platform with enhanced Discord integration and features, enabling traders to instantly share their trades with followers, communities, or social media. With v2.0, we firmly believe we're closer to achieving this goal. While we've already introduced a plethora of new features, fixed existing bugs, and upgraded functionalities, we are actively developing dozens more and have an extensive to-do list. Our dedication to improvement extends to enhancing the speed and performance of the global Trades display, Trade Insight interface, and Discord bot response times.

The core features of our app and Discord bot—trade tracking, trade sharing, and following traders or their trades—are now fully functional and available with this pre-release of v2.0. This encompasses the global Trades display, Trade Insight interface, Trader Rankings, Trader Dashboards, and all previous Trade Sharing (+ new features) functionalities. Presently, the platform supports stocks, options, and cryptocurrencies across 26 exchanges. Our team has been actively developing support for forex and futures markets, complete with comprehensive performance statistics. As part of our transparent development process, you may encounter some interfaces, displays, and web pages that are either incomplete or missing, such as our Market Data Suite that includes Asset Info interfaces, Broker & Exchange integrations via account settings, Social Feed, and a new Help Center. We're diligently working on these elements as we transition our old documentation into an interactive onboarding center designed to guide you through every facet of this exceptional platform.

Version 2.0 marks the exciting beginning of a rapidly growing community of like-minded traders and investors. We invite everyone to actively contribute to the advancement of the web app and Discord bot by either submitting trades, following active traders with notifications enabled, or providing feedback—whether it's praise or constructive criticism. Our social trading platform will remain free, and we encourage you to help us expand our trader base by inviting the Discord bot to your server and inviting Discord or social media analysts/traders to explore this new and improved platform.

 

Big Changes Coming Soon

As we continue to roll out new features, there are some major changes you should be aware of. If you haven't noticed already, our former web domain, thetradehub.net/tradehub.pro, now redirects to nvstly.com, featuring a new logo. Stay tuned for more information as we transition out of this pre-release beta phase. Rest assured, this transition maintains the essence of the original Trade Hub (NVSTly) team and organization.

For Discord server owners and administrators, expect to receive notifications from our Trade Hub (NVSTly) bot to invite the new 2.0 bot. We're in the process of verifying the new bot with Discord and are awaiting resolution for a minor glitch (on Discord's end) we encountered during the verification application submission. We'll be providing updates on this soon.

Giving more insight to what a trader may have been looking at when executing the position.

Note: TP/SL can still be set/changed/removed from a trader's own Trade Insight interface.
See TP/SL Documentation

Options left expired now do not always close at -100% (long) or +100% (short). All options left expired will close at 4:15pm EST at the price they expired at. Any options expired with prices under $0.05 will still expire -100% (long) and +100% (short)
Note: On Trade Insight interfaces it may show closed at 0.03, but return -100% (long) for accuracy. As options cannot be bought/sold under $0.05

Bot now replies with the gain/loss percentage regardless the amount. (Whereas before only mentioned gains when 5% more more)
Also shows 2 separate gain percentages for trades with partials/trims.
1. Gain - This is the value factored into performance stats. It is calculated by averaging the return of all partials/trims and the exit.

New alias "leaving some" (anywhere in trade notes) has been added for partial/trim.
