Did A.I. Just Build A Crypto Trading Bot for Me?
I think it did!
Last night something happened and my mind is still reeling.
My first thoughts are :
“No freakin’ way”
“Can this be real?”
“This has to be too good to be true.”***
What happened?
I was browsing the modules in my favorite workflow automation software Make, and I was searching for Botstar, which is one of the chatbots I use for customer support.
Make recently integrated Botstar so I can now push my customer support chatbots to be even more comprehensive than they already are.*
I slipped up and accidentally typed BI instead of BO.
Then I see it.
The Binance Module…..
Just sitting there like a diamond gleaming up at me.
GASP.
NERDGASM.
So I added the module and to my amazement, this is not a bare bones module expecting me to work mostly with the API.
Some modules in Make can be lacking, mostly there to let you know it’s possible, but making you dig into API’s.
This module on the other hand is a complete module with many preset options that look like it can set up automatic trading fairly easily.
So I set to work building out a few workflows, and was trying to figure out how the work should flow in my head.
I built a few test bots and was slightly confused about the order of operations and what they should be.
Options like Get Average Price and Get Candlestick Data intrigued me.
This looks like I can now do everything I’ve ever wanted with a trading bot.
Can I really get moving averages and more advanced patterns and then use that to control the New Order module, so it dynamically responds to market conditions like I do with my **See 100, take 100 method?
If the Binance module can enable me do these things — this is the last step in turning my semi-automating trading strategy into a fully automatic one.
Not to mention, the ability to Integrate CoinMarketCap and possibly even scrape Crypto news sites as triggers….
If the module can do those things, this is going to be HUGE.
Then I noticed something else in the corner of the screen.
A new “AI Assistant” that hasn’t been there before.
It is built into the chat support now.
It’s easy to find in the bottom right hand corner of the Scenario builder screen.
So I did the first thing that came to my mind.
I asked it to build a trading bot for me.
In less than 2 seconds it popped out a workflow.
Plop. Plop.
It’s Shake n’ bake, and I helped!
However, I can tell by looking that this bot is NOT a trading bot.
It is a bot that will feed some kind of data to Telegram, I assume to create a news bot that updates crypto prices and shares to a Telegram feed.
Not what I wanted.
So, just like with all things A.I., I became more specific in my prompt :
And just like that — it cranked out what looks to be a fairly advanced trading bot using Google Vertex AI.
I was not even signed up for Vertex yet, so I signed up.
This is utterly mind blowing.
The coolest thing in software I have probably ever seen.
I can determine a little about what the workflow is doing by looking at the modules, but I have not yet tested it yet.
It seems to be retrieving a ticker (to monitor a specific coin?), then passing that into Vertex which contains a special prompt referencing the output of the Ticker modules.
Then it passes that data into a Candlestick checker, then an Average Price module, then again to AI (doing what exactly, I don’t know yet.
I am waiting to figure out what is not configured correctly in my Google account for Vertex.
Unfortunately I signed up, connected my account, but I get an error. I assume because there is something I need to do with my Google account.
While I am waiting for Google support to help me out with this, I decided to ask the AI to build another bot for me.
What is really interesting, but maybe shouldn’t be surprising — every time I ask it to build another bot, it builds a slightly different bot.
Sometimes the AI will ask me for more details, other times it will not.
So apparently the Google vertex addition was somewhat random?
I can keep asking it to build bots, and it will crank out slightly different configurations each time, possibly showing me things I didn’t know were possible before.
This is beyond cool!!!
Well, that’s it for today.
I was so excited I couldn’t wait to share. Normally I’d want to test something before posting about it. But not this time.
The possibilities here are staggering.
I’ll be digging into this for the next several weeks or longer and seeing what I can create with it.
May this info help to accelerate your crypto trading adventure.
If you come up with an amazing trading bot after reading this, I’d love to know!
Share with me, I’ll share with you!
I’ll be posting more about this when I know I have a working bot.
*** UPDATE : This was too good to be true. At least, for USA residents. The Make module is pointing to the primary Binance website, and my US API keys return a “not supported in your region” error. Unfortunately, the Palau Digital Residence ID that I wrote about doesn’t work for KYC on Binance, so this little no code project is dead in the water for me.
If you are not in the USA and end up making a bot with a make workflow, I’d love to see what your results are!
Thank you for reading!
