Danger

You could loose money. Use cointrader at your own risk! I do not accept any responsibility for any losses.

Cointrader is Alpha quality! It is not meant to be used for serious trading yet. It is still in a early development phase and has a bunch full of known defects. Expect all all aspects of the application to change in the future. Cointrader is not roundly tested.

Motivation

This program exists because I want to learn more about automatic trading based on a technical analysis of charts. I am no expert on trading or crypto currencies! I am a professional Python programmer who stuck his nose into the crypto coin and trading world in 2017 and who was directly fascinated on this topic. After reading some books on technical analysis I decided to write this program to learn more about how automatic trading works.
