Get news feed into the Bot
06 Jan 2023, 18:16


Hi,

I have looked all over the documentation, so I am not sure this is possible, but is there a way to get news events into a bot? Basically if there is a high impacting news release due I want to shut my trades down and not trade until it is over to protect my account. There is a plugin I can buy from ClickAlgo but I dont want to have to keep loading the data in every 3 months. I just want the bot to run and be able to get the news events coming up with the impact they will have on the price.

Cheers,

Jay

SInce they are now integrated with FXStreet, I would see if FXStreet has any API's you can access:
