Trading companion for Tradestation

Currently this only works with TRADESTATION

Tradingapp is an idea that will allow user to find patterns and create custom logic to take some trades.

# with npm
# install server dependencies at root 
# install client dependencies in "clinet" folder
npm install


# or with Yarn for both server and client
yarn install

Usage

You'll need Tradeshtation client_id and secret for you to use this application.

Rename a sample .env.example file to .env file in the root directory of your project. Add your client_id and secret in the fields below to use this APIs.

For example:

TS_CLIENT_ID="<TS_CLIENT_ID>"
TS_CLIENT_SECRET="<TS_CLIENT_SECRET>"

Alphavantage does not work because of rate limiting...

If you want to use AlphaVantage APIs add a key for that in the .env file. If you don't have a key get it from https://www.alphavantage.co/support/#api-key

ALPHA_ADVANTAGE_KEY="<ALPHA_ADVANTAGE_KEY>" 

process.env now has the keys and values you defined in your .env file and these are loaded in config.js file present in the ./server directory. You can see in the below example by default the base_url is set to simulated account.

ts: {
    client_id: process.env.TS_CLIENT_ID,
    client_secret: process.env.TS_CLIENT_SECRET,
    base_url: process.env.TS_BASE_URL_SIM,
    base_url_sim: process.env.TS_BASE_URL_SIM,
    base_url_live: process.env.TS_BASE_URL_LIVE,
    cookie_secret: process.env.COOKIE_SECRET,
    api_callback: process.env.API_CALLBACK,
    session_data: null
  }

Usage

Run below commands which will start both server (running at port 3001) and a client (running at port 3000).

# using npm
npm run start

#using yarn
yarn start

This is just a beginning of a idea, feedback and changes are welcome.
