Setting Up Bot Trading Strategy

The blockchain engineers at NowNodes suggested that the custom-made trading bots built according to the guidelines would have limited trading activity by the standard. While this minimizes possible losses, more advanced crypto traders can expand the script.

Furthermore, crypto enthusiasts setting up a trading bot on Shibarium should determine a reasonable price for buying, what notifications are important, and what tools should be used on automated actions. Most importantly, the traders should connect their trading bot to Shibarium Chain ID, which is 719.

Getting Access to Shibarium Beta On-Chain Data

The setup of customized trading bots on Shibarium is powered by Python. The programming language is “the most convenient” for such cases, NowNodes claim. To make the trading bots work, a user has to install the libraries provided by NowNodes on Twitter. 

Besides, a user has to obtain an API key from the blockchain infrastructure provider to extract any on-chain data. This can be done in two ways: extracting from a DEX or an Oracle.

Define the Logic and Structure of Shibarium dApp

Next up is the most important step, according to the NowNodes tutorial. In this step, the crypto trader has to define the logic and structure of the customized dApp. Indeed, the goal of this Shibarium trading bot is to loop for Shiba Inu (SHIB) price checks and send notifications.

After the script is fully set up, the crypto enthusiast can implement it to the Telegram bot and perform other required tests. Once the Python script is saved, it’s ready for execution.

Play with your script – try to connect it to your Telegram bot that you created.

If everything works well, run the script from the pic below.
