A TKinter (Or any other GUI module, just has to be user friendly) Python program that automatically calculates the HBD price in dollars directly from the Internal Market, plots the price over time on a chart within the program to showcase HBD price trends, and auto-arbitrages the HBD price based on user inputs of price thresholds.
I actually have a somewhat MVP of this idea, except for the arbitraging part. I think I have it figured out, as I'll have to use Beempy to interact with the internal market commandline-style.
This idea came to me out of frustration with there being no way to accurately check the price of HBD. The dozen other internal market frontends' HBD ticker price is really delayed, or exists as a form of HBD/HIVE ratio, which gets cumbersome trying to eyeball the HBD price in dollars over time based on that. There has to be a better way.
The original use case for this program is to find the most opportune time to sell HBD. As you know, HBD's price fluctuates heavily, and waiting for it to stabilize around the >$1 mark gets annoying if you trade HBD frivolously. My MVP is capable of sending a Windows notification of when HBD's price trades at or above $1.
Yet another use case would be arbitraging. This is pretty self-explanatory: The bot buys low, and sells high according to the thresholds set by the user. I've seen another bot made by @quicktrades that does this same thing exactly.... that he sells for 1000 HBD. No one is gonna buy that :P and I intend to make this program completely open-source, as it has great potential to stabilize the HBD price if it gains strong enough adoption. Think of it as democratizing the HBD Stabilizer. Beempy will make short work of this part, I'll just have to figure out how to make a GUI out of a command-line, or get someone to help me with it.
Thanks for listening!

I will share this with the @peak.open team. What would your wish be like? Are you hoping for someone to do the project or to help you. Or is this a project you are wanting to do and if so how would you propose it as a wish?
The wish proposal would be the first paragraph of my post. And now that you mention it, I'd like for someone to help me polish it and create the HBD arbitrage module more than anything, cause I've already created about %60 of it. Here's a video demonstration on 3Speak
It looks rough, but at its current state its been an invaluable time-saving tool thus far for me, as I don't have to constantly check when HBD's price is back up to $1 all the time.
If you'd prefer we speak over in Discord, my username is (include the period): kyelo.
So what does the PeakOpen team think? Any reply yet?
