Stock Market

Exercise

Develop an app that will simulate a real-time stock market. You may use Yahoo API for data retrieval.

Upon signing up, users will be given 1,000,000 fake dollars to use within the app for buying and holding stocks. The app should have the following features:

• Login/logout functionality
• Ability to buy and hold stocks
• Historical charts of stock prices
• Retrieval of data for a particular stock for the last year or since the company went public
• Real-time updating of stock data (updating at least 5 times per second)

Make sure to manage states via any of the following patterns:

• BLoC
• Provider
• MVC

Todo list

• Route for login/signup page
• Route with all the purchased stocks
• Route to display historical data of the chosen stock
• All the data must be fetched in real-time
• Choose 20 stocks to monitor

Objective

• A login/signup page
• A page displaying all purchased stocks
• A page displaying historical data for the chosen stock

You should fetch all data in real-time and choose 20 stocks to monitor. The objectives of this exercise are to practice fetching data in real-time, visualizing custom widgets in real-time, and implementing authentication and authorization services.

To complete this exercise, you will need to do the following:

• Research the Yahoo API and determine how to use it to retrieve stock data.
• Implement the login/logout functionality and user account management.
• Allow users to buy and hold stocks within the app, using the fake dollars provided to them.
• Implement the ability to view historical charts of stock prices.
• Retrieve data for a particular stock for the last year or since the company went public.
• Update stock data in real-time, at least 5 times per second.
• Choose 20 stocks to monitor and display their data within the app.
• Use one of the specified patterns (BLoC, Provider, MVC) to manage state within the app.
• Implement the specified routes for the login/signup page, purchased stocks page, and historical data page.
• Test the app thoroughly to ensure that it is functioning correctly and all objectives have been met.
• Remember to follow best practices for coding and app development, and be sure to document your code and any decisions made during the development process. Good luck!
