It has been a dream of mine for the past 2 years to build this exact thing, and basically went from excel to vba to php to python and DigitalOcean cloud servers. On the business end of it, I️ was planning to use it for myself and get 6 months of reliable performance, then offer my services as a consultant for individuals looking to set up and run their own algorithmic trading. This basically amounts to me copying my droplet and changing a variety of configuration settings including api keys and logins etc.

From there on, charge a monthly fee of $99 and hire freelance developers or university students to handle assistance requests and assisting in editing people’s algo’s if possible and charge fees for it.
