OctoBot
OctoBot is an open-source automated trading platform that connects to over 15 cryptocurrency exchanges, enabling users to deploy grid, dollar-cost averaging, market-making, and AI-driven trading strategies. It functions as a unified multi-exchange trading platform, a TradingView alert executor, and a crypto trading bot, all within a single system. The platform is built on an event-driven trading loop with a plugin-based strategy engine, an exchange-agnostic connector layer, and a cloud-synced profile store for multi-device consistency.
What distinguishes OctoBot is its integration of large language models like OpenAI and Ollama to generate market predictions and execute trades based on AI analysis, alongside a comprehensive backtesting engine that replays historical data through the same evaluation pipeline used in live trading. The platform supports simultaneous operation of multiple independent strategies across separate exchange accounts or subaccounts, and includes a Telegram command interface for remote monitoring and control. OctoBot also features a webhook-to-order pipeline that parses incoming TradingView alerts into typed order templates for immediate execution on any connected exchange.
The platform covers the full lifecycle of automated trading, from strategy creation and backtesting to simulation, deployment, and execution. It includes portfolio management capabilities such as thematic crypto baskets, automatic rebalancing, and cloud synchronization, as well as risk controls like portfolio allocation limits and volatility constraints. OctoBot can be extended with custom Python modules that add indicators, strategies, or web interface enhancements, and supports configuration through a visual web interface or direct JSON file editing.
OctoBot is installed from source using Python and Git, runs in the background via a terminal multiplexer, and can be updated by pulling the latest code from the repository.
