Build Your Remote Investing Stack
Brokerage Apps That Travel Well
Look for multi-asset support, advanced order types, easy fund transfers, and stable mobile performance. Offline-friendly watchlists, biometric logins, and transparent fees matter, too. Tell us your preferred app and why it fits your on-the-go investing style.
Unified Portfolio Dashboards
Aggregate accounts across brokers, banks, and retirement platforms into a single, clear view. Cloud dashboards, APIs, and custom spreadsheets reduce guesswork. Comment with your favorite aggregator so others can test it and compare experiences.
Real-Time Data, Alerts, and News
Signal Without Noise
Set alerts for price, volume, and news keywords that actually matter to your thesis. Mute routine fluctuations. Share your alert logic so readers can learn how you filter markets without missing what truly counts.
Webhook and Automation Alerts
Use webhooks to route alerts into messaging apps, email digests, or custom bots. Trigger notes and checklists automatically. Tell us how you’ve used programmable alerts to react faster while keeping emotions in check.
A Trail Hike Saved by an Alert
One reader set a trailing stop alert before hiking a canyon with spotty service. The notification hit a satellite messenger; they trimmed risk and preserved gains. Share your own near-miss stories that turned into lessons.
Automation and Rebalancing That Respect Your Plan
Leverage automated allocations for core holdings while keeping satellite positions discretionary. Direct indexing can automate tax-loss harvesting and factor tilts. Comment if automation improved your discipline or if you prefer full manual control.
Research and Due Diligence From Anywhere
Combine fundamental screeners with earnings transcripts, satellite data summaries, and sentiment scans. Use AI summarizers to triage, then read deeply. Share your source list and how you avoid overfitting to shiny datasets.
Research and Due Diligence From Anywhere
Tag notes by ticker, thesis pillar, risk, and catalysts. Link highlights to valuation sheets and decision logs. Comment with the templates you use so others can replicate a resilient research routine.
Simulations and Stress Tests
Run Monte Carlo scenarios on savings rates, return assumptions, and volatility. Use historical stress periods to gauge drawdowns. Share your favorite simulator and the scenario that surprised you most.
Sizing and Stops
Use position-sizing formulas and soft stops enforced by alerts or bots, not panic. Document maximum loss per idea. Post your sizing framework to help others avoid costly concentration mistakes.
Hedges With Purpose

Collaboration, Accountability, and Community
Form small online groups with clear rules and archived discussions. Rotate pitches and keep a shared calendar. Tell us where your group meets and how you maintain constructive debate without groupthink.
Collaboration, Accountability, and Community
Use shared watchlists, chart annotations, and comment threads to track evolving theses. Time-stamp changes to stay honest. Drop your favorite collaboration tool and why it works for your team’s rhythm.
Automated Tax Workflows
Connect brokers to tax software to import transactions, dividends, and fees. Reconcile differences early. Comment with your integration tips to help others minimize painful year-end crunches.
Capital Gains and Lot Selection
Track cost basis, choose lot selection rules, and set wash-sale alerts. Export summaries for quarterly reviews. Share the reports you run each month and the insights they consistently deliver.
