RunCandles

Functional specification · runcandles.com · tagline “GPX for Traders” · formerly working title gpxfortraders.com · 2026-08-09 · final — zero open questions

One-liner: a client-side-only web app that renders a GPX track (run / hike / ride) as if it were a financial instrument: an interactive candlestick chart of speed over distance, a linked route map, moving averages, a volume panel — the full trading-terminal treatment for your morning run.

The premise is playful; the chart tooling is serious. Public, polished, desktop-first.
