Hi,
I've develloped a scaping strategy based on news events that seems to work when I backtested it manually for the last 10 years. The problem is that the market needs to be entered extremely quickly while taking into consideration the last candlestick closing price after the annoucement of the news, way quicker than a human could. To solve this problem, I thought about automating my strategy, so that the trade would be placed almost instantaneously. I wondered what options I had. Should I simply learn to code? If so, what language should I focus on? Should I use an AI that does the coding for me? What AI would you recommend? Should I buy a already existing bot and adapt it to my needs? I am new to this, and your help would be greaty appreciated. Thanks!

metatrader has a very nice programming language built into it.

I think Chatgpt could help you get started. Tell her what you're after and what language you would like your code in.

To automate a trading strategy, start by defining clear rules and parameters for your trades, such as entry and exit signals based on technical indicators or market conditions. Use a trading platform or software that supports algorithmic trading and allows you to implement your strategy through coding or built-in tools. Make sure to backtest your strategy thoroughly to evaluate its performance before deploying it live. Additionally, when using any related applications or tools, such as financial or trading apps, ensure you download from trusted sources to avoid issues with potentially harmful or fake APK, which could compromise your trading experience and security.
