Pretty sure it wouldn't be too hard since some exchanges have APIs. How hard can it be. Buy low, sell high. Put in a few guards. Don't even bother trying to predict. Just do think it through. Pretty sure I coud do this and make a fortune on shit coins. Tell me I'm wrong.

Many years ago I wrote a tradebot for the forex. It's been pretty basic though. It pretty much worked by creating a bunch of polynomials, which represented the (smoothed and averaged) course history of different spans of time. You know, last minute, last 5 minutes, last 15 minutes, and so on, up to the last several days. Then I decided, if at the current point those polynomials are going up or down, and depending upon how many of those polynomials were going up or down, small buy or sell calls were made, so that my portfolio was kinda crawling behind the curve.

It actually worked for scalping and daytrading. Well, I was young by then, and at some point I lost interest.

One thing I've noticed however is, that movement almost always happens at certain times of the day, like when the exchange in new york opens, and stuff like that. So I guessed, that it would be reasonable for traders to find out what those times and dates are, put them in a calendar, and browse through the news before that to see what has happened that might influence the markets, and put out some call just before the exchange opens, and cash out an hour later, and then be done for the day.

So you were able to make a profit? Even after fees? That's pretty good.

I made a profit. It's been at the very beginning of online-trading, so my strategy might not work anymore, and I only had a few hundred bucks, which I think grew by about 30-40% per year, but at a very constant rate, because of the really small transaction sizes.

And fees didn't really exist. You had the spread, i,e, the I think 0.003% between the buying and selling price, so you could make really small transactions, and as many as you like.

op - if your going to do this in Python or Java and want a hand let me know, I would be interested in helping. We may be able to look for statistical outliers where a stock drops

They exist, you are playing in a whole different fish tank now. Big fish, big teeth, they make the rules and also rule the rule makers. Stay small, don’t high frequency trade, spread it around. You might just be too small to worry about.

Just make a free account on many exchanges... ?Kucoin? and use their grid bot. No reason to do any real work. It literally does exactly what you described here. Works good. Is nearly free to use.

I'm working on one right now. Hoping to use deep learning AI
