Build a Market Dashboard for Trading Analysis

What this Workflow Does

The Build a Market Dashboard workflow helps you create a visual dashboard that aggregates market data, indicators, and signals into a single view.

This workflow is used to build dashboards such as:

  • Multi indicator monitoring panels
  • Signal overview dashboards
  • Market condition summaries
  • Visual status and signal boards

It focuses on presentation and structure, not strategy design.


When to Use This Workflow

Use this workflow when:

  • You want to visualise multiple signals or indicators together
  • You need a clear overview of market conditions
  • You are building a monitoring tool rather than an execution tool
  • You want to reuse proven dashboard layouts and extend them safely

Do not use this workflow to place trades automatically.
For automation, use Build a Trading Robot instead.


What You Should Prepare

Before starting, make sure you have:

  1. A clear idea of what the dashboard should display:
  2. Indicators
  3. Signals
  4. Market states
  5. The timeframes or symbols involved
  6. Any existing indicator or panel code you want to reuse
  7. An understanding of whether the dashboard is read only or interactive

Dashboards should start simple and expand incrementally.


How to Interact with CodePilot

Describe the dashboard in functional terms, not visual guesswork.

Good examples:

  • “Create a dashboard that shows RSI, MACD, and trend direction.”
  • “Display buy and sell signals for multiple symbols.”
  • “Add colour coded status indicators for trend strength.”
  • “Update the dashboard once per bar.”

Avoid vague requests such as: - “Make it look nice.” - “Add everything.” - “Copy TradingView.”

Clear structure leads to reliable output.


How CodePilot Builds Dashboards

CodePilot will:

  • Start from a stable baseline layout
  • Separate calculation logic from visual rendering
  • Use reusable components where possible
  • Add parameters for enabling or disabling sections
  • Return a complete, compile-ready file

CodePilot prioritises clarity and maintainability over visual complexity.


Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Adding too many indicators at once
  • Mixing execution logic into a dashboard
  • Updating visuals too frequently
  • Skipping baseline testing before extending

Always build, test, and extend step by step.


After building the dashboard:

  • Test performance on live data
  • Confirm visual updates behave as expected
  • Add alerts or signals only after the layout is stable
