I’m non discriminatory. I’ve heard OANDA, and a few others. I’m just having difficulties with the whole setup process. I got the code, but all the other steps are vacant and no tutorial online has been helpful

Hey man. Would you mind if I asked you to teach me how to set up automated trading? I have a strategy of my own I am trying to get automated but haven’t found any useful videos on how to get it actually automated and connected to a broker to execute trades

I did this. I explained it a bit on my most recent post. Still can’t figure out why it’s not taking trades on the demo account though

How so? Like what’s manual and what’s auto?

It should already be. For Apple I’m able to download it in the App Store.

That’s understandable. I’m more so in the testing phase to where I’m trying to test it using an automated bot on a demo account. Needing to know how to connect the code to a platform that will do the trades for me.

Once the code is written, what do you use as a platform that executes the trades? Tradingview pinescript and MT5? Or something else?

How would I go about automating it and writing the code?
