MachineTrader™ provides you a powerful user interface, tracking your current account balances, positions, trades, and strategy performance, along with charts, company financials, news, and reporting from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. The front end of your personal site is a replica of the demo site shown below.
Flows can then be deployed to the runtime in a single-click. JavaScript functions can be created within the editor using a rich text editor. The flows are stored using JSON which makes it easy to share nodes. A built-in library allows you to save useful functions, templates or flows for re-use. A light-weight runtime is built on Node.js, taking full advantage of its event-driven, non-blocking model.
MachineTrader's Data Center provides real-time reporting of the top and worst performing stocks, updated in 5-minute increments throughout the trading day. Depending on your Alpaca data plan, reporting starts at 4 AM in early hours and continues until 8 pm. Other reports identify fast moving stocks, far outperforming their average trading volumes, Options with the greatest open interest, real-time updates of Options "Greek" values, and dozens of other indicators you'll find useful for building Alpha-producing strategies.
MachineTrader's Leaderboard displays the real-time performance of trading strategies running in the company's paper accounts. All of the strategies are available as sample code, and can be downloaded and installed in your instance in minutes. From there, you can customize and run in your own paper account.
MachineTrader™ offers free training courses on Udemy, designed to teach students how to trade stocks and options algorithmically without writing code. The courses provide a comprehensive introduction to Node-RED, a low-code, event-driven programming tool for automating tasks and integrating APIs.
