This post I would like to share my experiences investing in crypto and trading in crypto. As a programming background and I worked on few blockchain projects, I learn how trading back in 2016. My 1st investment is with Coinex Exchange and I got earn a lot platform coin CEX. Slowly I also learned a lot of strategies like using different indicator likes MA, RSI, bollinger bands to monitor my trading.

Human action is too slow !

After fews month trading by manually and I able to understand how it works, I'm tried to look for some automation to detect the indicator signals.

First I started with Telegram Bot.

In all the exchanges, they provided API means a connection that allow use to perform an action ( place buy order, place sell order, cancel order, etc ) without using the exchange platform. So I gather all the indicator signal and pull to my Telegram and I using telegram to alert me to place order or cancel my order when is down trends.

BUT still not that smart enough !!!

PYTHON !!!!!

Yes ! I heard you !

This round I going to using automation place order or cancel order without me to delay and click on the Telegram buttons.

Here is some code that i wrote. Is not that good enough but is WORK !!.

If you new to trading, here is some tips. In the code, i always put in the exchange rate, trading fees as a consideration to maximize my profit.

After the fews round of testing, Im host my program of cloud and it will auto run the program 24/7.

PROBLEMS!!!!!

Yup, the programs still got a fews problems like the exchange rate daily need to be updated, the fees will be change, and the indicators setting need to corrects.

All these still able to solved, the biggest problems is....... platform API changes / update!!

Yes !! all these API is base on the platform, sometimes they update the api without notice and it down immediately. This will cause your order not cancel and selling on cheap price!!

Nows a day, all the platform api support is getting better and better. So API trading there are a lot of people or services you can subscribe with.

HAPPY ENDING !

Today, I still using my own programming bot to trade, and I still trade manually to feel the trading also. Trading it still a risks, so that you need to spend more time to understand and learn yourself day by day.

Hit me up we can learn and share together.
