Crypto trading bot generator: Python bots built on ccxt, from plain English

Describe the bot you want: the exchange, the pair, the timeframe, the entry, the exit and how much to risk. Edgoro writes a complete Python bot built on ccxt, the open-source library that connects to most crypto exchanges, with a requirements.txt, an explanation of how it works and the steps to run it safely.

Every bot starts in paper mode: it logs the orders it would send instead of sending them, and uses the exchange's testnet when one exists. The code is checked with Python's compiler, errors are fixed automatically, and your API keys stay in a file on your machine.

  • Python 3.11+ and ccxt
  • Paper mode on by default
  • Bots option: +$25 at checkout

How it works

  1. Describe the bot

    Exchange and pair (Binance spot unless you say otherwise), timeframe, entry and exit rules, risk per trade and a daily loss limit. Plain English is enough.

  2. Get bot.py and requirements.txt

    The full bot in one file, a requirements list kept to ccxt, pandas and python-dotenv unless more is truly needed, then how it works and how to run it safely.

  3. Syntax check

    The code is checked with Python's py_compile. If it finds errors, they go back to the AI for up to two automatic fixes.

  4. Run it on paper first

    Create an API key with trading only, withdrawals disabled and an IP whitelist; put it in a .env file; install the requirements; run on testnet or in paper mode before anything else.

Example: a BTC/USDT trend bot

A typical request, and the top of the file that comes back. Every bot opens with the same safety defaults: keys read from the environment, the exchange's rate limiter on, paper mode on, and the testnet when the exchange has one.

RequestPython bot for BTC/USDT on Binance spot, 1h candles: buy when the 20 EMA crosses above the 50 EMA, stop at 2 × ATR, target 2R, risk 1% of the free USDT balance, stop for the day after a 3% loss.

Python excerpt
import os

import ccxt
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()  # API keys come from a .env file, never from the code

SYMBOL = "BTC/USDT"
TIMEFRAME = "1h"
RISK_PCT = 1.0        # % of the free USDT balance risked per trade
DAILY_LOSS_PCT = 3.0  # no new entries for the rest of the UTC day past this loss
PAPER = True          # log orders instead of sending them

exchange = ccxt.binance({
    "apiKey": os.getenv("EXCHANGE_API_KEY"),
    "secret": os.getenv("EXCHANGE_API_SECRET"),
    "enableRateLimit": True,
})
exchange.set_sandbox_mode(True)  # Binance spot testnet: testnet keys differ from live keys
Illustrative excerpt: the configuration block at the top of bot.py. Names and values follow your request. An example, not a performance claim.

Below that block, the bot fetches closed candles with fetch_ohlcv, computes the EMAs, a Wilder RSI or the ATR with pandas (no TA-Lib to install), acts once per closed candle, holds one position per symbol and rounds every order to the exchange's precision and limits. Network errors are retried, everything is logged, and Ctrl+C stops it cleanly.

Built to be run safely

A crypto bot holds API keys to a real account, so the defaults matter as much as the strategy:

  • Keys from the environment. They're read with python-dotenv from a .env file and never written into the code.
  • Trading-only keys. The run steps tell you to disable withdrawals and whitelist your IP when you create the key.
  • Paper first. PAPER = True until you change it, and sandbox mode on exchanges that offer a testnet. Testnet keys are different from live keys.
  • Risk in code. Position size comes from your risk percentage and the stop distance, within the exchange's minimums, and a daily loss limit blocks new entries for the day.

Edgoro never asks for your exchange keys and never runs the bot for you. It runs wherever you start it: your computer or a small VPS.

What's included, and what isn't

Included

  • Complete Python 3.11+ bots built on ccxt
  • Binance, Bybit, OKX, Kraken and other ccxt exchanges
  • requirements.txt and step-by-step run instructions
  • Paper mode and testnet by default
  • Risk-based sizing, stop-loss, take-profit and a daily loss limit
  • Python syntax check with up to 2 automatic fixes
  • MT5 Expert Advisors, in the same option

Limits, plainly

  • Trading bots are an option on top of a plan.
  • The syntax check proves the file parses, not that orders go through: API permissions, minimum order sizes and regional restrictions show up when you run it.
  • Binance spot unless you ask for another exchange or market.
  • You run and monitor the bot yourself. Edgoro doesn't host it.
  • The bot doesn't backtest itself. Backtest Lab, an add-on, can test the same rules on crypto data.

Who it's for

Crypto traders automating a rule

You already know when you buy and sell. A bot applies the rule on every closed candle, including the ones at 3 a.m.

Pricing

Trading bots for MT5 and crypto are one option on top of a plan: +$25 when you tick it as you choose your plan, or $49 once later from Settings. The plans are Pro Monthly at $29 a month or Lifetime at $49 once, so Lifetime with the bots option comes to $74, paid once. Options work while your plan is active, and the bots option bought with your first plan is covered by the same 7-day money-back guarantee.

Frequently asked questions

Which exchanges are supported?

Exchanges that ccxt supports, including Binance, Bybit, OKX and Kraken. Without other instructions the bot targets Binance spot.

Do I need to know Python?

No, but you need Python 3.11 or later installed. The answer lists every command: install the requirements, add your keys to a .env file, run on testnet or in paper mode first.

Is my API key safe?

The key never goes to Edgoro. The bot reads it from a .env file on your machine. Create it with trading permission only, withdrawals disabled and an IP whitelist.

Is the code tested?

It's checked with Python's py_compile, which catches syntax errors, with up to two automatic fixes. That doesn't test the strategy or your exchange connection, which is why every bot starts in paper mode.

Can the bot run 24/7?

Yes, wherever you start it: a computer that stays on or a small VPS. It retries network errors and exits cleanly when you stop it.

Can I backtest the strategy first?

Backtest Lab, an add-on, tests a crypto strategy's rules on up to three years of candles for 20 major USDT pairs, with fees, slippage and an out-of-sample check.

Do I need the trading bots option?

Yes. MT5 Expert Advisors and Python crypto bots are one option: +$25 when you choose your plan, or $49 later. Indicators and chart analysis are in every plan.
