twinky v0.1.0

twinky: Crypto Trading API Modular CLI Suite

twinky is a discretionary CLI suite designed by crypto traders that hate GUIs, for crypto traders that hate GUIs.

this is not designed to be competitive in terms of execution, but instead intended for discretionary use. if you want HFT speed execution, rewrite yourself in a lower level lang, or wait for the rust version 🐱

twinky is designed from a modular approach. Meaning, it enables anyone to build their systems on top, and is intended to be utilized as a tool that can handle otherwise tedious tasks of other automated trading systems such as env handling/exchange-specific api nuances, etc. twinky was created to help unify authentication, execution and data parsing across exchange APIs.

it is recommended to run twinky after install to setup config/env. this is requried for making any actions with twinky, and twinky will make you set up config/env before allowing any actions anyway.

twinky has two different modes...

interactive cli

  actions:
          -trade(t)
          --> execute trades.

          -listen(l)
          --> listen for and log portfolio updates in real time.

          -view(v)
          --> view portfolio, open orders, order history.

          -settings(s)
          --> view/modify config settings.

          -help(h)
          --> log this message.

          -exit
          --> exit the program.

twinky {action} then feed prompts on request.
