Algorithmic Trading Framework

I wanted to create a few posts/videos working towards a well thought out algorithmic trading framework. It will start off quite basic and then build over a series of a few examples of different trading bots using Alpaca. None of these should be taken as trading advice. This is purely to show working examples that can be used for inspiration. The following trading bots have been created and have their own blog posts:

• Basic Trading Bot that trades purely based on time
• RSI Bot using Yahoo Finance 1H data
• Bollinger Bands Websocket Bot With Logging
• Multi Strategy Framework that’s modular with logging (coming soon)

Please note: I have also created a websocket post, which shows how to stream stock, crypto, and options data.

In addition to the trading bots mentioned above, I wanted to share a few related items that may be of interest that are all using Alpaca. All of these are links:

• Send summary results/updates to yourself via email using Google Apps Script.
• Streaming Data In Excel Using PyXLL (demo only)
• Alpaca Trading Excel Tool Using PyXLL (demo only)

All of this can be found on my YouTube too: https://youtu.be/Zslma6MGE1w
