Former trader here. This is cool, but also a tremendous amount of work for something that the average prop shop arcade jockey can do without any specialized system. I quit the hedge fund space about 3 years ago but I still have hundreds of tickers memorized, and order management systems (especially the in-house prop ones) are designed for this exact use case: quick tactical trading, whether it’s headline/event driven or run of the mill options market making.
