From Finger Cramps to Official Recognition
How a frustrated trader built a tool, iterated 13 times, and got the Limitless team to validate his work.
The Problem
I was actively trading on Limitless.exchange but the UI was killing me. Every position required 50+ clicks. My finger started cramping so bad I literally couldn't trade for 3 days. There had to be a better way.
The First Build
Started with a simple Tampermonkey userscript. Just a few buttons to speed things up. It was ugly but it worked. I could enter positions in 3 clicks instead of 50. My finger thanked me.
Iterating Through Pain
Version after version. v1, v2, v3... up to v13. Each version added something new: keyboard shortcuts, the trade journal, arbitrage detection, the enhanced DOM. Broke it, fixed it, improved it.
"I spent 60 days building a trading tool because my finger cramped so bad I couldn't click anymore. Here's the story of how @trylimitless noticed."
โ The X thread that started it allThe Recognition
Then something crazy happened. The official @trylimitless account โ the actual platform โ liked and commented on my thread about the tool. Third-party validation from the people who built the exchange. This wasn't just a side project anymore.
Officially Recognized
@trylimitless engaged with the creator and validated the tool
Launch Day
After 60+ days of building, 13 versions, and countless iterations, we're here. The Chrome extension is live. Free for beta users. Built by a trader who felt your pain.
