The majority of automatic trade bots use technical indicators like moving averages, oscillators and so on. Without historical price data from Biscoint there's no way to precisely initialize indicators. The only option is to let the program run dry for the number of periods required for the indicator, only to get prices and build the right value. Example: a 20 period EMA watching a 1 day time frame would take 20 days to get properly initialized.
A good historical price endpoint would receive the base coin, the op, the time frame and the number of registries to return. This idea is common place in the MetaTrader world, where the broker provides sets of past data.
