Building a Lightweight Crypto Trading Monitor: From Idea to Open Source
A developer created a lightweight crypto trading monitor to avoid constant chart watching. The tool, built with TypeScript and utilizing the CCXT API, sends smart alerts to Telegram based on market conditions. The project is open source, encouraging others to use and contribute to it.
- ▪The trading monitor is designed to run on a VPS and provides real-time alerts for BTC/USDT.
- ▪It employs an 'anti-spam' logic to prevent duplicate alerts when market conditions are met.
- ▪The source code is available on GitHub for anyone interested in algorithmic trading.
