What it does

Jesse is a Python-based crypto trading bot that allows founders to automate their trading strategies across multiple exchanges and cryptocurrencies.

When to use it
  • You need to automate a trading strategy that involves multiple cryptocurrencies and exchanges.
  • You want to backtest and validate a trading strategy before deploying it in a live trading environment.
  • You need to monitor and respond to market conditions in real-time, such as executing trades based on technical indicators or news events.
Ready-to-paste prompt
jesse backtest --strategy MyStrategy --exchange Binance --date-range 2022-01-01-2022-12-31
Heads up: Before running Jesse, you must set up a valid `config.json` file with your exchange API keys and other settings, or the bot will fail to connect to the exchange and execute trades.
