I was playing around on cash app and spent a few dollars on the stocks there. I got bored of it eventually, but it got me thinking that there has to bots for this already.
I want a bot that I can give a dollars worth of stock. If that dollar’s worth rises by two cents, I want it sell a cent, and put the other cent into a pool for the next dollars worth of stock.
This has to have been done before, I just never learned anything about it.
I can’t help you with stock market stuff unfortunately. To be honest, I wouldn’t want to have to deal with the headache of it all myself. If you’re still interested in writing a bot though a great way to learn is to pickup the programming language Python. There is a ton of free material out there for beginners. A good first project for when you start to feel comfortable is writing your own discord bot. If you’re interested I can try to find some links after work to share!
The system is rigged against you. Any “gameable” aspect of the system which could be used to even the playing field is either regulated (ie you need a specific license) or billed in such as way to make it unprofitable (or at least transfer all the risk to you).
Look up “roboadvisor” and put your money into one of those services.
It’s not quite as sexy as imagining some script making you millions over night. But it is essentially accomplishing what you’re looking for without too much maintenance on your part.
