gpt-crypto-trading

This is a simple project that connects Crypto News API and ChatGPT with Binance to create a trading bot that trades based on recent news, with strategies determined by chatGPT.

How it works

Every 30 (configurable) minutes the app fetches recent crypto news and feeds them to chatGPT to generate a trading strategy. The strategy consists of a tuple (asset, buy/sell, duration) where duration specifies for what time the bought asset should be held and defaults to 24h (configurable). Selling is done automatically after that duration. Note that every buy position spends 50% (configurable) of the USDT balance.

Formally, the selling of asset means to exchange it for USDT.

The app logs your positions in the positions.json and keeps a log in trade.log file. To change the interval between news fetching, change the ACTION_INTERVAL variable in trade.py.

How to set up and run

First clone this repo and install dependencies specified in pyproject.toml. Then fill in template.env with your api keys and rename it to .env. Finally, run the app with

python trade.py

The app runs indefinitely. To stop it, press ctrl + c.

Note: This is a simple non-professional project, use at your own risk. There are no guarantees that it will work as intended and can break due to unhandled exceptions.

Replacing crypto news source api

I am not promoting cryptonews-api (also make sure to checkout their forexnewsapi and stocknewsapi) in any way, and the code is generic enough to allow for any other news source. To do that you can edit the lib/cryptonews.py file and export the news_getters variable that stores a list of news getter functions. You do need to respect the specified type signature of the getter functions.

Replacing trading platform

The trading platform can be changed from binance to any supported by the ccxt library, though note that other platforms have not been tested and may not work. If you stick with binance, some things to keep in mind:

  • enable your API key having access when sent from any IP,
  • if on Ubuntu and getting Binance error: Timestamp for this request was 1000ms ahead of the server's time error, try this solution and then sudo systemctl restart ntp if the problem reappears.

TODO

  • Handle connection errors when fetching news, querying chatGPT, and making trades.
  • Make a database logging when timed-bought assets are supposed to get sold.
  • Test with platforms different from binance,
  • Do app as a CronJob.
