Partial The paper-trading UI, charts, fee estimation, position sizing, and encrypted journal are vibe-codeable, but live NSE/BSE and US market prices require licensed, often expensive exchange data feeds.
What it would actually take: The stack would be a web or desktop frontend with a charting library, a simulated order engine, and fee tables for each exchange. The hard piece is licensed real-time market data for Indian and US exchanges, which needs data vendor contracts and redistribution rights. Accurate Indian brokerage and charge modelling also needs domain knowledge.
