From arbitrage to technical analysis, algorithmic strategies play a vital role in any well oiled market. Better liquidity, cost savings, and speed are just a few of many perks that bots have to offer. In order to help others reap these benefits, The Ocean will be hosting an Algorithmic Trading 101 crash course! We’ll start from zero and teach anyone with some coding chops and finance fundamentals how to build a crypto trading bot.

Over the length of this course, we’ll give you the fundamental knowledge, code snippets, and monitoring tools to release your bot into the wild. And though we’re not responsible for the ultimate performance of your strategy, we’ll be providing plenty of help along the way.

Part of this support includes part of $5,000 (in crypto) to stellar students or community mentors who share their learnings, open-source their algorithms, or help out. Winners will be announced at the conclusion of our series!
