Python based Algo trading bot for Nifty / Banknifty futures and options

Primary LanguagePython

Fully automated Alice Blue Algo Trading with Python on NSE and MCX for Nifty / Crude / Banknifty futures and options , absolutely FREE !

This algo trading bot is my first attempt to try, learn and implement my python programming skills. Please use this only for reference and at your own risk.
This repository contains python code to perform algo trading on India, NSE through AliceBlue broker. You need to have a valid AliceBlue client ID, password, 2FA authentication password set and API enabled (ask aliceblue support) to get this working. This program is focused on Nifty and Crude futures with a simple Supertrend with RSI strategy. Initially, I had developed this for windows then later moved to linux (ubuntu) platform on AWS. Now I am working on moving this to Oracle cloud as its free :) and this version works smoothly with the free tier as well ;-)

There are 2 programs:

  1. For Options trading - ab_options.py which uses ab_options.ini as configuration/parameter file.
  2. For Futures trading - ab.py which uses ab.ini as configuration/parameter file.

These programs basically uses 3min (low) , 6min (medium) time frame supertrend and RSI indicators (adjusted through parameters) to generate signals. For any other strategy you need to modify the main program. My wish list includes parameterisation of this strategy peice as well.

There is a background program (ab_bg.py) which runs at the background and helps us to control our algo bot from anywhere using telegram. We can send commands through telegram chats to do various activities in realtime like start/stop trading, set MTM levels, manage SL, get detailed logs etc. basically all the realtime config parameters can be managed/modified through telegram chats.

The main program ab.py/ab_options.py which needs to be scheduled at 8:59:30 AM / 9:14:00 AM daily through linux crontab. Crude(MCX) opens at 9:00 AM and Nifty at 9:15 AM. You can setup AWS instance to start at 8:45 AM and stop at 11:45 PM (After MCX Close) through AWS Lambda. I typically set both of the programs on seperate AWS instances and configure two seperate IDs. You can read through the comments in the ab.py/ab_options.py for detailed understanding.

There is an ab.ini/ab_options.ini file which is the key configuration file through which you can control all the parameters of this program, even at realtime using Telegram chats.

Will update proper documentation soon...

Although this is still work in progress, kindly suggest your feedback. It will help me improve.

Feel free to use/diustrubte this code freely so that new algo developers can get started easily.
