Long-Only Automated Trading Bot (TradingView + Interactive Brokers)

This is a fully automated, long-only stock trading bot designed to execute systematic trend-following strategies without emotional decision-making.

Built using TradingView alerts and connected to Interactive Brokers via a Python webhook server, the bot automatically places trades based on predefined technical conditions.

📊 How It Works

The bot follows a simple, proven market strategy:

Trades only in uptrends
Enters positions when price confirms momentum above key moving averages
Exits when trend strength weakens
Avoids shorting entirely (long-only exposure)
⚙️ Core Strategy Logic
Uses 50 EMA for entry timing
Uses 200 EMA for trend confirmation
Buys only when the market is in a confirmed uptrend
Exits when price loses short-term trend support
