AutoTrader Overview

Auto Trader automates stock option trading

It consists of two components:

  • A server hosted in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) that parses text from a Discord bot for trade signals from selected options traders and analysts
  • A locally hosted client that listens to the server for new trade signals and places validated orders with a TD Ameritrade brokerage account

AutoTrader is currently a functioning prototype

Installation

AutoTrader can be cloned from GitHub

Configuration

For AutoTrader Client configuration help see "docs/Setting Up AutoTrader Client.pdf"
