Elonbot

Trading bot that uses Elon Musk`s tweets to know when to buy cryptocurrency. Here is how it works:

1. Subscribes to someone's (elonmusk?) tweets
2. Automatically detects mentions of DOGE or other crypto in the image(or text)
3. Buys crypto on Binance
4. Sells it after --auto-sell-delay seconds

Installation

git clone http://github.com/vslaykovsky/elonbot
pip install python-binance google-cloud-vision unidecode

Running

1. Set up Twitter access keys.
   • Go to developer.twitter.com to create your developer account
   • Generate a bearer token
   • Set up an environment variable with the bearer token.
     • Linux: export TWITTER_BEARER_TOKEN="<YOUR BEARER TOKEN>"
     • Windows: set TWITTER_BEARER_TOKEN="<YOUR BEARER TOKEN>"
2. Set up Binance access keys.
   • Go to Binance and create a trader account if you don't have it yet
   • Go to API management page and copy your API key and secret
   • Export both keys:
     • Linux: export BINANCE_KEY="<your API key>"; export BINANCE_SECRET="<your secret key>"
     • Windows: set BINANCE_KEY="<your API key>" & export BINANCE_SECRET="<your secret key>"
3. [Optional] Add image text recognition support with Google OCR
   • Use the following documentation to access Google Vision API
   • Export path to your google vision configuration.
     • Linux export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/path/to/your/google_vision_credentials.json"
     • Windows set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="C:\path\to\your\google_vision_credentials.json"
4. Run elonbot.py

Here are some examples of how to run Elonbot. All examples are provided for Linux. For Windows make sure you use correct escaping

With image text recognition:

python elonbot.py --user=elonmusk --margin-type=cross_margin  --crypto-rules='{"doge": "DOGE", "btc|bitcoin": "BTC"}' --auto-sell-delay=600  --order-size=max  --use-image-signal

No image text recognition

python elonbot.py --user=elonmusk --margin-type=cross_margin  --crypto-rules='{"doge": "DOGE", "btc|bitcoin": "BTC"}' --auto-sell-delay=600 --order-size=max

Dry run (only prints debug output, no orders are executed)

python elonbot.py --user=elonmusk --margin-type=cross_margin  --crypto-rules='{"doge": "DOGE", "btc|bitcoin": "BTC"}'  --auto-sell-delay=60 --order-size=max --dry-run

Trade cryptocurrency at Binance using Twitter signal

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --user USER           Twitter user to follow. Example: elonmusk
  --crypto-rules CRYPTO_RULES
                        JSON dictionary, where keys are regular expression patterns, values are corresponding cryptocurrency tickers. elonbot.py uses regular expressions to find tweets that mention
                        cryptocurrency,then buys corresponding crypto ticker
  --margin-type MARGIN_TYPE
                        isolated_margin or cross_margin. These are two margin types supported by Binance. Read this article to understand the difference:

                        margin or cross-margin to use this script
  --auto-buy-delay AUTO_BUY_DELAY
                        Buy after auto-buy-delay seconds
  --auto-sell-delay AUTO_SELL_DELAY
                        Sell after auto-sell-delay seconds
  --asset ASSET         asset to use to buy cryptocurrency. This is your "base" cryptocurrency used to store your deposit. Reasonable options are: USDT, BUSD, USDC. You must convert your deposit to one
                        of these currencies in order to use the script
  --use-image-signal    Extract text from attached twitter images using Google OCR. Requires correct value of GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable.Check
                        https://github.com/vslaykovsky/elonbot for more details
  --order-size ORDER_SIZE
                        Size of orders to execute. 1.0 means 100% of the deposit; 0.5 - 50% of the deposit; 2.0 - 200% of the deposit (marginal trade)"max" - maximum borrowable amount. max corresponds to
                        3x deposit for cross-margin account and up to 5x for isolated-margin account
  --dry-run             Don't execute orders, only show debug output
  --process-tweet PROCESS_TWEET
                        Don't subscribe to Twitter feed, only process a single tweet provided as a json string (useful for testing). Example value: '{"data": {"text": "Dodge coin is not what we need"},
                        "includes": {"media": [{"url": "..."}]}}'
