What's up guys, I'm looking to create a custom crypto trading bot from scratch and I'm stumped on where to start. Has anyone else had luck with writing their own algorithm or integrating APIs for trading signals? I'd love to hear your tips on how to get started and avoid common pitfalls.

"Lol @ building a bot from scratch, that's a tough one. I've had success using APIs like CoinGecko and Binance to create a basic bot, but scalability is a whole different beast. Has anyone got any recommendations for a beginner-friendly bot framework?"

"Hey guys, I'm all for building a crypto trading bot from scratch, but if anyone has experience with using APIs from platforms like Binance or Kraken, I'd love to hear some tips on that. Has anyone tried using something like Alpaca or Robinhood's API for crypto trading?"

"Lol, I've been trying to build one for months now, but I keep hitting roadblocks with trading API permissions and data feed integration. Has anyone had any success with using Zabo to connect to multiple exchanges? Would love to hear your experiences"

"Hey guys, been there done that. My tip is to start with a simple strategy, like a moving average crossover, and slowly build it up. Don't overcomplicate your bot with too many indicators, it's a recipe for disaster"

"Hey guys, I've been working on a trading bot myself and I can attest to the importance of backtesting your strategy on historical data. I used a combination of Python and the ccxt library to create a bot that trades on multiple exchanges, but make sure you set a risk management system or you'll end up blowing your account . Has anyone tried using machine learning for their trading bots?"
