Real-Time Stock Screener Using QuoteMedia API

Project Overview
Demo of project we would like to use as example provided below.

We are seeking an experienced developer to build a low-latency, real-time stock screener using the QuoteMedia API. The screener will monitor all actively traded U.S. stocks and display key metrics with updates occurring every second.

The ideal candidate should have prior experience building financial data tools, stock scanners, or trading platforms and be comfortable working with high-frequency data updates.

Core Requirements
Data Source

QuoteMedia API will be used as the primary data provider.

The system must pull and maintain a live list of all U.S. equities.

Required Metrics

For each stock, the screener must calculate and display:

Current price

Volume

Relative volume (daily)

Relative volume (5-minute percentage)

Gap percentage

Change from previous close (%)

Short interest

All data will be sourced from QuoteMedia and, where necessary, calculated or derived from the raw API data.

Real-Time Functionality

The screener must operate with low latency.

Data should refresh every second.

System should be optimized for fast performance and scalability.

News Integration

Each stock ticker must be clickable within the screener.

Clicking a ticker should open a news panel or view showing articles relevant to that specific stock.

The news feed will be provided through the QuoteMedia News API and must be integrated into the platform.

Reference Platform

For a general idea of the functionality and layout, the system should be similar to the stock scanner found on:

Warrior Trading platform (demo access available upon request)

This is only for feature reference, not a direct copy.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience building stock screeners or trading tools

Familiarity with financial market data APIs

Strong backend development skills (Python, Node.js, or similar)

Experience with real-time data processing

Ability to build a responsive UI (web-based preferred)

Deliverables

Fully functional real-time stock screener

Source code and documentation

Setup instructions for deployment

API integration with QuoteMedia

Basic user interface for viewing and filtering stocks

Clickable ticker functionality with integrated news feed

Additional Notes

Access to stock screener in which we would like ours to look similar to.
