Experience
- Algorithmic Exchange Trading Platform
This is a Rails application for users to sign up and deploy their own algorithmic exchange trading strategies to the stock market, leveraging the Alpaca Stock Trading API as a broker. The goal is to streamline the process of taking the idea of a trading algorithm and enable a trader to get up and running as quickly as possible. The application takes the trader's requirements needed to run the algorithm (language, framework, packages), provisions a cloud server of the trader's choice with Terraform, and then enables the trader to remotely log and manage the cloud server through the application UI. It is currently a work in progress.
