About Boom Stalker
Boom Stalker is a rule-based market research tool built to help everyday traders see market momentum, price action, and setups in a clearer, more organized way.
Why I Built Boom Stalker
Most trading tools are built for people who can sit in front of screens all day. Boom Stalker is being developed for people with full-time jobs who need a structured way to review the market in limited time.
Reason 01
Avoiding Emotional Decisions
By using a rule-based approach, you remove the urge to chase stocks or exit trades prematurely based on fear or greed.
Reason 02
Focusing on Repeatable Setups
Stop hunting for every possible move and start focusing on the specific chart patterns that historically provide high-probability outcomes.
Reason 03
Consistent Daily/Weekly Reviews
Having a structured routine ensures that you are always prepared for the next trading session, even with a hectic work schedule.
Built Like an Operating System
Connecting Steven Zapf’s background in steel manufacturing operations to how Boom Stalker is built: define the process, measure performance, identify failures, improve with evidence, and reduce emotional decision-making.

What We Believe
Everyday people can learn structured market review to navigate price momentum with confidence.
Tools should be honest about risk and uncertainty, prioritizing education over empty promises.
No system can remove losses; discipline and risk management are the only paths to survival.
Testing and paper trading come before bold claims; we value evidence-based research results.
Education should come before predictions; understanding the 'why' is built into our core DNA.
