A trading bot

A trading bot for the Tinkoff Invest broker.

Only history loading is implemented at the moment.

1. Prerequisites

• A Tinkoff Invest account and an access token
• PostgreSQL
• Current user's right to create a database in it
• pip install -r requirements.txt

Tested on Ubuntu 22.04.

2. Usage

2.1 Setting a broker access token

1. Set the environment variable INVEST_TOKEN to your Tinkoff Invest access token:

export INVEST_TOKEN=your_token

Alternatively, save this line to a script and source it (dot-call) before using the bot:

. load-token.sh

When running the bot from an IDE, you can set the environment variable in its project settings.

Make sure your token doesn't get commited to a repository or get outside your computer in any other way.

Add or remove function calls in trading_bot.py as you see fit and run it.

• host.deploy() — Deploy the trading bot on this machine.
• host.update_instruments() — Download and save the information about available instruments and their properties.
• host.download_history() — Download the candle history to the database.
