The problem
The client already had a strategy and needed a precise entry inside a short window. By hand, there was no keeping up with the market.
Automating trading strategies through the exchange API. The bot listens to the price feed over WebSocket, works out the position size, and sends orders straight to the exchange.
The client already had a strategy and needed a precise entry inside a short window. By hand, there was no keeping up with the market.
I built a Python bot for the exchange API: the streaming data intake, the algorithm that runs the strategy, and safeguards for when something goes wrong.
The bot enters the position at the right moment and closes the trade by the rules of the strategy.
Launched bots
A bot that acts on exchange events. It takes the live data feed, checks the risk limits, and places orders in the first seconds of the window.
Tell me the rules the bot should trade by. I'll tell you what can be automated and how we back-test it first.
I want a bot for my strategyWhat the work involves
A complete system: exchange API connection, entry and exit algorithms, risk management, and the backend on the server.
The strategy logic: position sizing rules, entry conditions, and profit targets. We agree on the rules the bot trades by before the start.
Before it goes live, we test the bot on historical data or in simulation. If something breaks in my own code, I fix it. After that I keep the server running and watch the bot as agreed, month to month.
