In this article we’re going to build upon some of the concepts explained in previous articles, designed to help you understand how to build a crypto trading bot in Python from scratch. This series of articles should also serve as a practical course into learning Python, as you will be picking up core concepts required […]
Before we jump into the crypto trading DCA bot, let’s briefly cover what DCA is, and how can this trading strategy be automated. What is DCA? DCA or Dollar Cost Averaging is a trading strategy that is supposed to minimise the risk associated with trading volatile assets (such as cryptocurrencies), by averaging out your buy […]
If you’ve been following my blog, you probably know that for the past couple of months I’ve been working on an open source crypto trading algorithm that can detect and instantly place trades on Binance new coin listings. The main issue has been speed of execution, or more specifically how long it takes the algorithm […]
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? This Binance Trading bot that I’ve been working on aims to do just that. The bot scans the Binance exchance and buys […]
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? Well believe it or not, it’s Binance’s own BNB coin. It actually outperformed every other crypto out there by a longshot. I had […]
There’s power in numbers, but what if those numbers are actually the crypto currency sentiment from Reddit posts? And what if we built a cryptocurrency trading bot that buys crypto based on the Reddit sentiment of specific coins. Reddit feels positively about Bitcoin? Let’s buy some. Reddit likes ALGO today – great let’s get some […]
It’s been an interesting two weeks since I decided to let my crypto trading algorithm handle my portfolio based on Reddit posts sentiment. While probably not the best decision to give the Reddit hivemind control over my finances (well a portion of them anyway, I’m not advocating financial suicide), I am hoping to answer the age-old […]
It’s been a week since I have left the Reddit crypto trading bot loose on the Internet, in order to make trades based on what different subreddits are talking about in terms of cryptocurrency. After many deliberations with myself that this might not exactly be the smartest strategy out there, I decided to listen to […]
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 […]
