◆ ROADMAP

What's built. What's coming.

An honest map of what Swing Deck does today across both sleeves, what's in active build, and what we deliberately won't build. No vaporware — if it's listed as shipped, it's running.

✓ SHIPPED & RUNNING

Everything here is built and running in Swing Deck today. Swing Deck is now a two-sleeve deck — a swing side (empirical, stop-protected, trade-the-move) and an investor side (principled, thesis-driven, own-the-compounder). Both run on the same local-first machine and share one broker connection.

Swing sleeve — trade the move
  • 11-point indicator audit on every portfolio + watchlist ticker, daily resolution, with 13 risk pillars and a status light per position (ARMED / HOLD / WATCH / TIGHTEN / EXIT / COLD).
  • 11 price-action triggers — breakouts, sweep-rejects, VWAP reclaims, EMA bounces, bull-flags, episodic pivots and more.
  • Regime engine — VIX + DXY + TNX classification (ACCUMULATION / DISTRIBUTION / NEUTRAL / GREED / FEAR), plus a two-tier oil-shock overlay.
  • Structural R:R — per-ticker risk/reward from 10 support/resistance sources; the broker preview gate refuses orders below a 2.0 floor.
  • Institutional-flow surfaces — gamma walls, RS rank, float / short-interest squeeze flag, SEC Form 4 insider activity, and a whale-confirmation read.
  • TP-ladder logic (40/40/20) + raise-stop automation, reconciled against the broker as source of truth.
  • Options L1–L4 library — 19 multi-leg shapes, permission-gated to your approved options level.
Investor sleeve — own the compounder
  • Durability screen — surfaces compounders on 4 durability pillars + 4 valuation bands across a broad universe, so good companies don't slip past.
  • Falsifiable underwriting — every anchor gets a written, testable thesis: system-drafted, then stress-tested by a 🔍 devil's-advocate skeptic before you buy.
  • 3-state thesis monitor — each holding reads INTACT / REVIEW / BROKEN against its own thesis, not a price wick. No stop-loss on this sleeve by design.
  • Valuation-band position sizing with a hard-max governor — per-name and per-sleeve caps plus a cohort-concentration guard, so the sleeve can't quietly over-concentrate.
  • Sleeve-risk panel — survivability, fragility, concentration, valuation and thesis-break read in one place, worst-first.
  • Per-ticker screening audit — look up any name and see exactly which durability gates it passed or failed.
  • Discipline ledger — every underwrite, trim and reset logged, so the sleeve keeps you honest.
Platform — shared across both sleeves
  • Live order placement — BUY / SELL / bracket / TP-ladder / raise-stop / cancel, each via preview → confirm → place to E*TRADE. Always manual-confirm; nothing auto-trades.
  • 13 AI coaches (10 swing + 3 investor) — every one is surface-bound and shows its inputs and limits. No free-text chat box, ever.
  • Portfolio truth — a broker-state daemon polls E*TRADE every 30s and a reconcile pill surfaces broker-vs-dashboard drift in real time.
  • 8-layer broker safety chain — writes-enabled · circuit · rate · audit-fresh · trade-cap · daily-budget · signed token · symbol-cooldown.
  • Standalone Mac app + 24/7 daemons — install to the Dock; pre-market alerts fire whether or not a window is open.
  • Local-first — positions, P&L and broker tokens never leave your machine.
About the download: the current stable installer (v6.7.26) ships the swing sleeve. The v7.8 installer — which brings the investor sleeve and live order placement to your machine — is being finalized and code-signed now (see Download). Running from source gets you the full two-sleeve deck today.

⚒ IN ACTIVE BUILD

Built on the dev line, being hardened before they ship broadly.

  • Automated thesis-break exit — the investor sleeve flags BROKEN today; the next step is a calibration-gated executor that can act on it (still manual-confirm). Held until the monitor's transitions are proven on real outcomes.
  • Broad-universe quality screen — a fundamental, CAN-SLIM-style screen feeding investor-sleeve discovery. Collecting and calibrating against real outcomes before it surfaces or sizes anything.
  • Light mode — the dashboard is dark-only by design; a high-contrast daytime theme is in progress (token-based color system already factored).
  • Batch-fetch infrastructure — async parallel data fetches to expand the scanner universe (S&P 500 / Nasdaq 100 / Russell) without a slow cold scan.

Solo developer; timing slips. Subscribe to the blog for ship notes.

⏳ COMING SOON

  • v7.8 customer installer — the public .dmg / .exe for the two-sleeve v7.8 line, being finalized and code-signed / notarized. When it lands, the Download page replaces v6.7.26 with v7.8.
  • Tradier full-trading — read-only positions + raise-stop are verified; full preview → place is in final testing.
  • Alpaca BYOK adapter — for users with a funded Alpaca account (free SIP feed with a 15-minute lag, same data as paid tiers at $0).

○ DEFERRED

Wanted, but not next. Parked behind the items above.

  • Volume profile (POC / VAH / VAL) and anchored VWAP from key dates.
  • Pattern library beyond bull-flag — cup-and-handle, head-and-shoulders, ascending triangle.
  • Multi-timeframe alignment — monthly synthesis (daily + weekly already shipped).
  • Macro-calendar awareness — FOMC / CPI / NFP windows (earnings windows already shipped).
  • Position-sizing optimizer (Kelly + volatility-adjusted; the current sizer is cash-aware, not Kelly-tuned).
  • Vol-surface analysis (skew, term structure) and 13D/G activist-filing tracking.
  • Revenge-trade detector — a risk-pillar veto for rapid re-entry after a stop-out.

✗ DELIBERATELY WON'T BUILD

Discipline is the product. These are popular elsewhere and work against it.

  • AI chat box ("ask me anything") — we ship surface-bound AI that shows its inputs, not free-text prompting. Why.
  • Community / social feed + peer trade ideas — invites FOMO and copy-trading; the opposite of personal accountability.
  • Live streaming / real-time chat — a distraction product.
  • Scalper / HFT tooling — different audience, different discipline.
  • Crypto-degen tools — out of scope; equity swing + investing focus.
  • "AI signals" hype — we don't sell certainty we can't deliver.

This page is the source of truth for what Swing Deck does today. If the dashboard ever contradicts it, that's a documentation bug — please file an issue.
