Cryptocurrency Data and Analysis Tool

This repo includes a simple finance recommendation site using Cryptocompare and OpenAI API.

Basic Pipeline

---

This project is a web-based tool that fetches and displays cryptocurrency data, including real-time prices and historical trends, and provides AI-generated trading advice using the OpenAI API.

Features

• Fetch Coin List: Displays a list of available cryptocurrencies along with their symbols, names, and algorithms.
• Historical Price Chart: Plots the price of a selected cryptocurrency over the last 7 days.
• AI-Generated Trading Advice: Uses OpenAI's GPT-3.5-turbo model to provide trading advice based on the latest cryptocurrency data.

Prerequisites

• Flask: A lightweight WSGI web application framework.
• OpenAI API Key: To interact with OpenAI's models.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Umit-Yilmaz/CryptoAdvisorBot.git
   cd crypto-analysis-tool

2. Install Python dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   
   

3. Install JavaScript dependencies:

   npm install

4. Set up environment variables:

   Create a .env file in the project root and add your API keys:

   OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key
   CRYPTOCOMPARE_API_KEY=your_cryptocompare_api_key
   

Usage

1. Start the Flask server: Go to project directory and write:

   python app.py

2. Open the web application:

   Open index.html in your web browser or start a local server using Node.js or just clicking:

   npm start

3. Fetch Cryptocurrency Data:

   • The main page displays a list of all available cryptocurrencies.
   • Enter a cryptocurrency symbol (e.g., BTC for Bitcoin) and click the "Fetch Prices" button to retrieve real-time price data and historical charts.
   • 

4. Generate AI Trading Report:

   • After fetching the cryptocurrency data, click the "Generate AI Report" button to receive trading advice based on the selected cryptocurrency.
   • 

API Endpoint

• GET /process: Fetches the cryptocurrency data and generates an AI trading report.

Error Handling

• Cryptocompare API Errors: If the cryptocurrency data cannot be fetched, an error message will be displayed.
• OpenAI API Errors: If the AI report generation fails, an error message with details will be shown.

Known Issues

• API Limits: Ensure that you monitor your API usage and do not exceed the rate limits set by OpenAI and Cryptocompare (which I've encountered this problem before)
• CORS Issues: If running on a different domain, ensure that CORS is properly configured in the Flask app.
