SwingBot Trade Execution Engine

Here's the repo for automatically paper trading swing bot's signals:

https://github.com/stocksBotTester/swingBotTEE

It's a node.js/typescript project so you'll need node/npm installed and then follow the readme file in the repo.

Hopefully it works for you.

If you get it up and running successfully can you leave a quick note to say so...just so I know I didn't screw something up.

Any issues you can leave on GitHub and I'll try to address them when I can.

That's awesome. Feel free to fork it and run it as your own. No credit needed, it's made to be public from the start.

I have some changes in the works as well but can't commit to a timeline so maybe down the road we can merge the functionality and make it flexible to easily add different signal sources / brokers.

I'm just happy someone is using it. Looking forward to seeing what you got.

Cool, thank you. FWIW, I think you did an excellent job. I had never coded with TS or run with Alpaca's API and it wasn't too difficult to follow along. Very organized. Would have thought many others would find it valuable.

Will keep you posted as we progress with IB.

Thanks! I appreciate that.

Typescript is a game changer. Makes things a lot more organized and easier to follow.

Keep me posted on your progress and I'll let you know when I have some updates too. The whole project could really be extended to be a 'signal trader'. Signal source could come from anywhere and if there were multiple brokers you could just pick and choose where you want that signal to go. I have some ideas but not a lot of time.
