Aiming for a MVP focused on binance rather than a full fledged arbitrage capable framework wit CCXT, although that would be de smartest option for the future, taking into regard that CCXT Pro becomes free in the next couple of months...
Once something is moving, I may port it to CCXT... or even make it modular to choose the API wrapper...
