Python Algorithmic Trading with SnapTrade, Massive, Alpaca

<p>We just published a comprehensive, hands-on video course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel that will teach you how to build an automated, end-to-end algorithmic trading system from scratch using Python and Django.</p> <p>This course guides you through engineering a functional, production-style web application called Momentum Trader.</p> <p>The application evaluates a universe of stocks, calculates momentum scores across a 12-month lookback period (excluding the most recent month to avoid short-term reversals), generates buy/sell trading signals, and executes orders automatically into a brokerage account.</p> <p>The course walks through the full development stack, breaking down both the quantitative logic and system architecture. :</p> <ul> <li><p>Web Framework &amp; Data Modeling with Django</p> </li> <li><p>Market Data Pipeline with Massive</p> </li> <li><p>Brokerage Connectivity with SnapTrade</p> </li> <li><p>Risk-Free Execution with Alpaca</p> </li> </ul> <p>Watch the full tutorial on the <a href="http://freeCodeCamp.org">freeCodeCamp.org</a> YouTube channel (2-hour watch).</p> <div class="embed-wrapper"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zH2Mg782XhA" style="aspect-ratio: 16 / 9; width: 100%; height: auto;" title="YouTube video player" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen="" loading="lazy"></iframe></div>
