Platform Architecture
Six integrated layers power TheCryptoPulse — from raw prediction market data to actionable trading signals delivered to your dashboard.
Layer
01
Data Layer
Live connections to Polymarket's three APIs: Gamma (market metadata), Data (historical prices), and CLOB (order book depth). Crypto markets filtered automatically using keyword matching and category analysis.
Layer
02
Processing Layer
Ingestion pipeline that normalizes data across API endpoints, calculates derived metrics (probability changes, volume trends), and prepares data for AI interpretation and visualization.
Layer
03
Intelligence Layer
Groq-powered AI engine that interprets probability movements, volume patterns, and time-to-resolution data. Generates specific trading signals: confluence, divergence, and contrarian setups.
Layer
04
Visualization Layer
TradingView chart integration for probability time-series. Interactive sparklines, probability bars, and signal indicators throughout the interface.
Layer
05
Application Layer
Next.js 14 application with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and shadcn/ui components. Server components for initial loads, client components for interactivity. Edge-optimized API routes.
Layer
06
User Layer
Authentication, preferences, saved signals, watchlists, and notification settings. Complete user management system ready for production deployment.
