Introduction and Recap

This is the second part of a blog series on algorithmic trading in Python using Alpaca. This series will cover the development of a fully automatic algorithmic trading program implementing a simple trading strategy. In the first blog, we covered the Alpaca platform, setting up the Alpaca API, and a few sample API calls in Python. Reading Part 1 will give you a basic understanding of how to interface Alpaca with Python and will serve as the foundation for developing our trading program, which is the topic of this blog.

_I will be uploading all code into a single repository, which will get updated with each blog. The repository can be found _here.
