Backwards-verse inverter tool! Netizens open-sourced the “Mingdeng anti-indicator tracker”—and once she stops-loss, your TG will ring.

Longtime influencer “Touzi Mingdeng” (Invesment Underworld Lantern), Bani Nini, this time has become the source material for an open-source tool. After a developer connected her Threads posts to Claude and Playwright, they turned it into a “Bani Nini Contrarian Indicator Tracker.” If she stops the loss, your Telegram will alert you. There are already netizens following along to open positions and even run simulated stock-market short trades, while the original poster self-mocks on FB: “Did I become a tool person?”

Bani Nini, the investment “evil goddess” who has recently adopted a short-hair look, has turned her long-standing contrarian-indicator consistency into open-source material. A Taiwanese developer took the entry and stop-loss updates she posts every day on social media—bundled them up, fed the whole set into Claude and Playwright—and built an automated tracking tool. The name is simply “Bani Nini Contrarian Indicator Tracker.”

After learning about it, Bani Nini posted on her own FB. She added a breakdown little emoji: “Have I already become a tool person?” “They’re even charging for it,” and then added, “I’m not charging anything at all—ahhhhhhhhhhh! I can only苦苦求大家去神奇的贊助.” After that, she still had to clarify: “My target stock remains unchanged.” “I haven’t bought yet today.”

“The moment she cuts her loss, your Telegram will ring”

The core logic of this tool is very simple. Using Playwright, it schedules time-based crawling of Bani Nini’s Threads posts locally, then sends them to Claude for a contrarian interpretation, and finally pushes the conclusion to the user’s Telegram. As the developer puts it in the README, it’s “Let Claude watch the Mingdeng—when she cuts her loss, your Telegram will ring.”

The entire project is open-sourced on GitHub. The highlight is that you don’t need to pay for an API key, and you also don’t need Apify or any other scraping services. Install it locally and just run /banini.

To make sure users don’t have to write their own crontab, there’s also someone who made a scheduling manager called skill-cron. It works with a Telegram bot to let you set schedules with natural language—for example, just type “Weekdays 9:00, 13:00,” and crontab will automatically generate it. The Mingdeng report will be pushed to the phone at the specified time.

• Bani Nini Contrarian Indicator Tracker: GitHub – Cablate/banini-tracker
• Scheduling manager: GitHub – KerberosClaw/kc_ai_skills/skill-cron
• How it works: Playwright crawls Threads locally → Claude does contrarian analysis → Telegram pushes notifications
• No API key needed, no Apify needed—interactive scheduling doesn’t require writing crontab syntax

Netizens open simulated positions and follow the contrarian play

After the news spread, netizens already started using the tool for fun. A Threads user, yihouliang, publicly shared screenshots of their simulated stock-market account. Total market value: 10 million. Following Bani Nini’s entry direction but going the opposite way, they opened positions short: “Currently shorting Tai Guangdian 1 lot, Asiang 5 lots.” In the post, it racked up 1,488 likes and 395 reposts.

The comment section totally shifted into meme mode: “Asiang, someone paid the ransom,” “LOL, wasn’t it just bought—so fast someone paid the ransom already?” “For details, check President Ban’s Facebook.”

This kind of “contrarian indicator being productized” isn’t the first time in Taiwan. Previously, the chairman of ChinaTrust Media Group, Xie Jinhe, was nicknamed by locals as the “Tesla Contrarian Indicator.” He openly downplayed Tesla three times, and every time the timing happened to coincide with a rebound—his biggest time was a 22% jump in three days.

The difference is: Xie Jinhe became a joke and at most stayed as a post screenshot. This time, Bani Nini has been turned into code—automatically pushing notifications to other people’s phones.

Original poster: I haven’t bought yet today—the target stock remains unchanged

Faced with becoming a tool person, Bani Nini’s reaction was unexpectedly Buddhist. On FB, she complained while declaring, “I’m just waiting for intraday! I learned it! The target stock remains unchanged!” In other words, she re-posted a preview of her next actions—basically feeding the tracker another piece of material.

For developers, the real value of this tool isn’t about whether you can make money relying on contrarian indicators. It’s demonstrating how Claude Code combined with Playwright can turn even community influencers into raw material. As for who gets “Claude-ified” next—maybe it just depends on whether someone feels like writing the README.
