Project Name: Cryptocurrency Trend Detector and Trader

Description

This project detects trends in cryptocurrency prices and makes automated trading decisions based on the detected trends. It fetches data from CoinAPI and interacts with the Binance API for trading (or the other brokers supported by CoinAPI && ccxt).

How It Works

The project follows these steps:

1. Data Fetching: It fetches historical price data for cryptocurrencies from CoinAPI using REST API requests.

2. Trend Detection: Based on the fetched data, the project detects whether the current trend in the cryptocurrency's price is an uptrend or a downtrend.

3. Trading Decision:

   • If the trend shifts from an uptrend to a downtrend, it sells the cryptocurrency.
   • If the trend shifts from a downtrend to an uptrend, it buys the cryptocurrency.

4. Trading Execution: The project interacts with the Binance API to execute trading orders.
