ccxt VS Alpaca-API

CCXT

I would sincerely advise you to use a ready to use python library for this like https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt

CCXT has good documentation on what exchanges and API's are supported which is very helpful. https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt/wiki/Exchange-Markets-By-Country

Consider using https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt for crypto exchange interaction, which of course will support Binance too

Check out https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot (disclosure: my project). We just added a Binance candles feature where you can construct custom OHLCV candles and TA indicators. You should also check out https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt which has broader exchange support but less order book data management than Hummingbot.

Or if you stick to JavaScript and willing to learn the programming part, then https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt (which is now merged with CCXT Pro but still for free).

Ccxt works great for me and it's free and open-source. You can connect and execute on multiple exchanges. It works with Javascript, Python and PHP.

if you're going crypto, try CCXT https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt

Essentially, to create an automated trading system using TradingView strategies, you would need to acquire the signal using webhooks. Once you acquire the signal, you can use whatever data send with it to manage orders, using the API of your broker. Usually, there are SDKs available to make this process easier. For crypto, one of the most well known SDKs is called CCXT. There are also some made for traditional brokers too. It is a simple process but it does take some experience with programming systems to set up.

Is there anyone using Alpaca for long term and passive investing? I am neither a US nor Europe residence, so it is pretty hard to find a decent broker. I came across alpaca.market https://alpaca.markets/ and noticed that there is zero comission for buying and selling stocks. I know that it has pretty good API especially for developers and day traders, but i am particularly interested in long term passive investing, and not interesting in day trading at all. Is it goog for long term passive investing (buying and holding etfs)?

No worries at all! https://alpaca.markets/ is another route for market data. Real time data is cheaper but it is lacking technical analysis. We used to use it and it's pretty good.

Access to historical data from Alpaca and Yahoo Finance, or from your own data provider.

I have been looking at https://alpaca.markets/ and wanted to use it to test out some of my API based trading.

What guarantees or structures are in place to make sure it doesn't end up like FTX?

Market data is an easier one to answer. We currently use https://alpaca.markets/ and they're pretty good, but we're also looking at https://polygon.io/ as they're the industry leader (but also 2k per month for what we require).

I'm trying to make an HTTPS request with an ESP32 to this website alpaca.markets. I have the CA cert and I'm using WiFiClientSecure.h. Here's my code, main.cpp is underneath all that.

Or you can sign up for a free account at Alpaca and use their historical data API. Then you can get data on many tickers with one function call.
