# PyTrader

### Overview:

Automatic trading bot that streams market data of specific instruments to buy or sell them by placing bracket orders (back-end for Falcon). 

### Data Flow:

**1.** **TradingView alert** is set off creating a JSON message containing ticker parameters such as open and closing price




**2.** Using **TradingView webhooks**, a POST request containing the **JSON** message is sent to a REST API (**AWS Lambda** function) 




**3.** This executes a **Python** script running through the **AWS Chalice Serverless Framework** 




**4.** The **Python** script then executes a bracket order using the **Alpaca API Paper Trading API** (tested requests live and offline using **Insomnia REST API Client**)

### Demo:

#### 1. Deploy Chalice REST API using CMD






#### 2. Set up alerts using Trading View and set Webhook URL to Chalice REST API URL






#### 3. Wait till alarm is triggered and orders are placed through Alpaca
