Serverless-Trading-Bot

Automated Serverless Crypto Currency and Stock Trading Bot

Introduction

This project uses serverless aws lambda functions to create an api to trade assets. Use TradingView or programmatically make trades based on certain conditions.

Currently includes a connector for the Coinbase Pro API to trade crypto currencies. In the works is a connector for Alpaca trading API which will allow you to trade stocks as well.

By integrating TradingView you can set buy and sell signals based on whatever indicators or market conditions you want. You can create a fully automated trading bot that buys and sells assets, although this is not recommended* (see disclaimer).

Requirements

Python
Install and Configure Chalice
AWS Account (optional if you want to deploy the bot live)
TradingView for Alert Triggers (or other trigger sources with webhooks)
Coinbase Pro account and api key
Alpaca Trading API **Implementation Coming Soon

Installation

First, create a new Chalice project
Clone the repo inside the new project directory

cd 'Project directory name'
git clone https://github.com/sletizia/serverless-trading-bot.git

Move the repo files from its folder to the project foler, overwrite/replace chalice files with the repo files

mv serverless-trading-bot/* .

Make sure the chalice project runs locally

chalice local

Config

The config.json file is where you put your coinbase pro and alpaca api keys, trading account information, AWS S3 info and other configuration settings coming in the future. Json Schema:

{
    "cbpro": {
        "apiKey": "",
        "apiPass": "",
        "apiSecret": "",
        "apiUrl": "",
        "accountIds": {
          "ETH-BTC": "example-account-id",
          "LTC-BTC": "another-account-id"
        },
        "stakeBTC": "0.0"
    },
    "s3": {
        "bucketName": ""
    },
    "alpaca": {
        "apiKey": "",
        "apiPass": "",
        "apiSecret": ""
    }
}

the accountIds element needs to be populated manually with an id for each coin you want to trade. To do that use the "get_accounts()" method from the cbpro package in the python cmd line console. You need your api key information for this step as well:

python3 to open the cmd line python console or run this code from a file

import cbpro

API_KEY="YOUR API KEY"
API_SECRET="YOUR API SECRET"
API_PASS="YOUR API PASSWORD"
API_URL="https://api.pro.coinbase.com"

auth_client = cbpro.AuthenticatedClient(API_KEY, API_SECRET, API_PASS, API_URL)
auth_client.get_accounts()

auth_client.get_accounts() returns a list of each of your crypto currency accounts with their id's. Pick the currencies you want to trade, extract the id, and add it to the config.json file

Input:

S3 config settings (bucket name)

Methods:

get_last_buy_price(asset_name) - reutnrs a float, the last buy price stored in bucket
set_last_buy_price(asset_name, close) - stores close price in bucket
more coming soon

Config Reader

Reads the config.json file and returns config settings

Methods:

load_config_from_file(configfilepath) - returns a dictionary, the elements stored in the config.json file
