Show HN: EZorro – Describe your trading strategy, and turn it into an algo

Hey HN! I'm Garrett, creator of eZorro.The problem: I had trading ideas but couldn't code them. I'd think "buy Apple when it drops 5% below its 20-day moving average" and then spend hours trying to wire up broker APIs, backtest logic, and execution — or just never do it at all.

Epupp has two modes of operation:1. *Live REPL connection from your editor to the web page*, letting you inspect and modify the page on the fly, with or without the assistance of an AI agent.2. *Userscripts*: Somewhat Tampermonkey style (I love Tampermonkey!).The two form a powerful pair. The live REPL connection, while happily supporting one-off changes or data extractions, is also a very efficient and fun means to interactively develop userscripts.

Show HN: OpenKIWI (Knowledge Integration and Workflow Intelligence)

I've always been passionate about AI and automation so when I first heard about OpenClaw I got excited.
