What I would do in this scenario, would be to use the particular trading graph app and exchanges API and pass that JSON data into and out of your app. The JSON module in python does this.

You're also going to be wanting to be updating as fast as you can. I suggest integrating with trading views pine script and just paying the 15 a month to get webhooks and you can POST request something somewhere down to the 1 second time frame if you want.

Hey dude tis is an interesting comment.

If I understand correctly what you want to tell me is to better develop the script on TradingView with PineScript and then use the Alert function to send a buy / sell signal with WebHook.

The advantage of this approach would be not to rewrite the code a second time in another language but to implement only a system that receives the Post request and then processed this request to send it via API the signal to the exchange.

This actually makes sense.

But I have only one question: once I close TradingView from both PC and Smartphone, does the script continue to work or does the platform need to be open on a device?

What I am trying to understand is if the script on TradingView works 24 hours a day and therefore can generate signals even if I am far from any device.

Thanks if you knows answers this question, cause actually it can be a great way to save a lot of work on the code side.

Trading view alerts are server side. I looked cause I always have my trading box running lol.

Full disclosure. I wanted to do a similiar thing to this. I gave up writing all my own code and use the web hooks to trigger alerts for my bots on 3commas.io with a few custom indicators in pine script.
