this

one of my biz partners just finished 500 hours of learning to trade manually. before you ask, he made several g's but claims it was mostly from luck.
he came to the conclusion to stay away from trading bots, untill he learns more.
imo tools like that are shiny metal objects for people looking for get rich easily with no mental effort. usually a scam.

WHAT DO?

0 returns bro. You have to compete with stronger faster bots written by teams of Jewish old fags. I tried and I failed.

where do I get them from, are there any libraries that make it easier?

>> No.1596305

I want to write a bot that does all the typing and clicking for me, faster than me, when my broker platform is on top. don't wanna expose myself to the market so the bot would also keep track of my stops.

what's that called? how do I write it or where do I purchase it? I know c++ and Java

>>1596305
You would use apis not click on screen i hope

the Interactive Brokers API is your only choice

no shortcuts. you're going to need to put about 20,000 hours into building tools and strategies, so get started today

it isn't about secret sauce
it's about experience
knowing your tools, your strategies and the markets.
