The moment has finally come. After a month of testing, bug-fixing and optimising, this open source crypto trading bot has finally made a profit, but not in the way you would expect so let’s break it down below. Quick recap on this Python crypto trading bot Before we jump into it though, just a quick […]
Have you noticed how many new coins tend to skyrocket temporarily the moment they are added to the Binance Exchange? Wouldn’t it be great if you could take advantage of that initial pump?

Here’s a question for you – out of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap, which one do you think it’s the highest performing coin since 2017, from a purely economical standpoint?

Let’s pick up form where we left off last week – we coded a simple backtesting algorithm for our cryptocurrency trading needs. In other words, we wrote a script that will help us asses how profitable out trading strategy would be by running it over historical data. More importantly, I pointed out how back-testing (or […]
Backtesting means working with historical data in order to determine potential future profits of your current cryptocurrency trading strategy.

While it’s not always indicative of future gains, it’s generally considered good practice to backtest your strategy before you […]
It has been an exciting week with all the attention and engagement that this project has gotten so far. The small community around this Binance trading bot is now at over 500 people strong on discord at the time of writing.
