A simple, reverse-engineered SDK for Tastytrade built on their (now mostly public) API. This will allow you to create trading algorithms for whatever strategies you may have quickly and painlessly in Python.
$ pip install tastytrade
A session object is required to authenticate your requests to the Tastytrade API. You can create a real session using your normal login, or a certification (test) session using your certification login.

The streamer is a websocket connection to dxfeed (the Tastytrade data provider) that allows you to subscribe to real-time data for quotes, greeks, and more.
