Title: Excel based bot, looking for help!
Post by: F-bernanke on January 23, 2014, 05:27:58 AM
Hello,

I'm really bad at programming, but i'm quite nifty at working with Excel sheets. So I want to make a bot based on excel, my problem ofcourse is communicating with Exchange API.

Bot requirements/wishes:

-Read bid price and amount from specific cells (A1, A2 etc)
-Feed back the confirmed bids with an order ID to excel, so my excel sheet can decide to cancel the order ID's if needed.
-Feed market data to excel specific cells (price ticker etc).
-Fast processing

Ofcourse I'm willing to tip a nice amount for a working solution.

Excel macros are not meant to do that... It would be easier to make you an excel like environment app.
Its not impossible, it can be done with many workarounds.

What excel like environment app do you have in mind? Java? Are you able to provide this?

thanks!
