A simple Streamlit app to find reasonable discounts and premiums for limit orders of stocks and ETFs

Limit Order Optimizer 💰

This repository contains the code for a small app that helps to design limit orders for stocks and ETFs. 💸

The app uses historical data of the fund to calculate the probability of executing a buy order with a certain discount or a sell order with a certain premium vs. today's price within a given number of days. (For instance, what is the probability of buying with a discount of -2% vs. today's price within the next 30 days?) The results are also visualized for different levels of discounts.

Users can easily upload historical data from Yahoo Finance for the stock or ETF they are interested in. If nothing is uploaded, the app shows the results for the UBS MSCI World SRI ETF (ISIN LU0629459743) between June 2018 and June 2023 as a default (data from Yahoo Finance here)

The app is built with Python 🐍 , pandas and streamlit (see also the streamlit documentation).
