This latest update brings epic improvements, long-awaited features, and numerous changes. Both the app and Discord bot have received upgrades to increase speed and responsiveness. Brokerage integration is finally here, starting with Webull, and the open beta is now live. We’ve also introduced a referral system where users can earn cash rewards for inviting other traders. And there’s much more, so keep reading!

Over the past few weeks, we’ve focused heavily on enhancing user experience by increasing the speed and responsiveness of both the app and Discord bot. We’ve made changes to ensure the global [Trades feed](https://nvstly.com/trades "NVSTly: Social Investing | Latest Trades") updates in real-time and loads trades quickly. Try scrolling down the Trades feed — you’ll notice how much faster it is to load more trades, even for options. The [Leaderboard rankings](https://nvstly.com/ranks "NVSTly: Social Investing | Rankings") have been overhauled, now loading in under a second compared to up to half a minute before. Submitting trades to the bot on Discord is also much faster, with stock and crypto trades processed in under a second and options trades around one second or less — a 300–900% speed increase. We’re currently refining options data, so you might encounter some minor issues, but they shouldn’t significantly impact user experience. Expect these to be resolved within the next week.

Brokerage integration is finally here! We’ve been talking about it since the end of 2021, and now it’s available. We’re conducting open beta testing for Webull. Users can now link their Webull brokerage account with the NVSTly platform and enjoy hands-free, automated trade submissions. This allows users to auto-track their trades, automate trading signals, or automatically share trades to Discord and social media. After connecting Webull, any trades executed within your broker account will be instantly shared with the app. We’re monitoring all broker-submitted trades to identify any issues with open/average/partial/close events and TP/SL settings. If trades aren’t logged as intended, we’ll reach out to gather feedback so we can refine the system and move on to the next broker. Please report any issues or trade position fixes in our #help channel on [Discord](https://nvstly.com/go/discord "NVSTly Discord Server"), by sending a DM to our support bot, or by emailing [team@nvst.ly](mailto:team@nvst.ly "NVSTly Contact").
