The most valuable commodity I know of is information.
-Gordon Gekko
Gekko is a Bitcoin TA trading and backtesting platform that connects to popular Bitcoin exchanges. It is written in JavaScript and runs on Node.js.
Use Gekko at your own risk.
See the documentation website.
Gekko requires nodejs to be installed. Go ahead and install this if it's not already (Gekko requires at least version 8.11.2). We advice to download the current LTS.
The recommended way of downloading Gekko is by using git. This makes keeping Gekko up to date a lot easier. Run this in a terminal:
git clone git://github.com/askmike/gekko.git
cd gekko
Once you have Gekko downloaded you need to install the dependencies, open your terminal and navigate to the gekko folder and run:
CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS -fPIC" npm install --build-from-source sqlite3
npm install --only=production
NOTE: You may see a vulnerability warning from NPM, if you run npm audit with --force, Gekko will break. See here.
You also need to install Gekko Broker's dependencies, run:
cd exchange
npm install --only=production
cd ..
After all the above you can start Gekko by running the following in your terminal:
node gekko --ui
For additional instructions, see the installing Gekko doc.
Gekko has a forum that is the place for discussions on using Gekko, automated trading and exchanges. In case you rather want to chat in realtime about Gekko feel free to join the Gekko Support Discord.
