Free, open-source, extendable crypto trading bot.
Botic can integrate with multiple exchanges and use different trading algorithms. The current state only has a few available, but more will come in the future.
This software is for educational purposes only. Do not risk money which you are afraid to lose. USE THE SOFTWARE AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE AUTHORS AND ALL AFFILIATES ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR TRADING RESULTS.
It is highly recommended to setup a virtualenv before installing. Example:
python3 -m venv venv
. venv/bin/activate
pip install botic
python setup.py install
In the project's directory, it is recommended to create a few sub-directories:
data
- state files to track orderslog
- log filesconfig
- configuration files in yaml formatExample:
mkdir data log config
Copy the example.yaml to the config/
directory.

To start the bot, two commands exist:
botic
- start the bot with specified configboticp
- wraps botic
in a loop in case of error (restarts on failure)Example:
boticp config/botic.yaml
botictop
To test out different trader modules/algorithms, there is a drop-in
backtest exchange that provides historical CoinbasePro BTC-USD data.
To use, set the config to exchange_module = Backtest
.
It's important to note that re-running a backtest may result in a order ID key error. Remove the configured data file to fix (e.g. `rm data/btc-backtest.data).
For debug purposes, the dump command can be used to display the data/data files:
boticdump data/example.data
See CONTRIBUTING.md
Exchanges modules are stored in botic/exchange. To add another exchange, copy the base template class and implement the abstract methods. Example:
cp -nv botic/exchange/base.py botic/exchange/EXCHANGE_NAME.py
editor botic/exchange/EXCHANGE_NAME.py
NOTE: The template base class will likely change or be clarified more in the next few releases.
Trader modules are stored in botic/trader. To add another trader, copy the base template class and implement the abstract methods. Example:
cp -nv botic/trader/base.py botic/trader/TRADER_NAME.py
editor botic/trader/TRADER_NAME.py
NOTE: The template base class will likely change or be clarified more in the next few releases.

TODO: Add HUP signal config reload.
Currently reloading is done by killing the process and manually starting it again.
