Challenge 02
Automation setup that overwhelms beginners
Letting beginners automate trades means exposing genuinely complex logic — conditions, triggers, amounts. Shown all at once, it reads as intimidating and most users abandon the flow.

Why one big form fails
A single dense configuration screen tends to:
✦Surface every option at equal weight
✦Hide the happy path behind edge cases
✦Make errors costly and hard to recover
The result is a powerful feature that beginners never actually reach.
Solution
A guided, step-by-step setup that reveals complexity gradually
The flow is broken into bite-sized decisions — stock, condition, amount — each on its own calm screen, with sensible defaults so a first automation takes seconds.

Apply to stock
Set condition
Confirm
Each decision gets its own screen, its own moment. Defaults do the heavy lifting so a first automation can be created in seconds, while power users can still drill into every condition when they want to.
