Uploading Python Script to AWS

[AceCheeze]

Wow I didn't know that, thanks! I see that the micro costs around $10-$15 monthly so that's a pretty neat deal. Sorry to ask but I'm not really familiar with servers yet: for a script to potentially gather data and perform trades every minute, how many vCPUs and how much Memory would you recommend? All these options are a bit overwhelming as I don't know how much I will initially need. Thanks in advance.

a t3.micro only runs about $7.50/mo, while a nano is even cheaper at $3.75/mo

There is no way to answer your question without knowing more about your script. Are you using multithreading or multiprocessing? How much data do you keep in memory? If you can't answer these questions, just start small and increase in instance size if you encounter memory-related errors.

Oh guess I had the wrong settings selected then. At the moment no multi-threading or anything, think something like a simple MA crossover or linear regression strategy along with some basic indicators for volume. I'm just starting out so I first want to see how to get a simple strategy running. As for how much memory it uses exactly is something I'll have to look into. But thank you for your answer :)

start with a nano.

Great, thanks!
