  We’ve been playing around on the side with ways to share trades with friends for some time, excited to share the latest iteration with HN - a personal page for your stock trades and holdings! Once you create your own custom page (see sample - https://rob.withlaguna.com/) you'll be able to import your trades automatically (Plaid), notify followers/friends through text, and grow an audience.

  In our beta we have casual users sharing with friends & family to keep them updated, new traders sharing on their social media to build an audience, and existing traders more deeply connecting with their loyal followers through text. We even have someone using it as a faster way to see their portfolio holdings over Robinhood.

  Would love to get some feedback from HN! What do you like/dislike? What features should we add?

  Pretty interesting! I have seen one or two of these "trading in public" apps emerge recently. The one that comes to mind is Commonstock.

  I like that this is a public web page that can have account-less following. I could see influencer or thought leader types chucking this on their linktree or whatever.

  Two pieces of feedback were (1) the sample site was on the slower side to load given its content and (2) it would be good for recent trades to have the trade type (buy/sell). Right now just looks like buy only? Bonus points for more trade types if you want to cater to the wsb crowd.
