LmaoThis is what I'm doing with my mother that lives in another country: I've set up an easy Momentum strategy to follow manually (2-4 trades per month) and all it does is sending alerts via email about when to buy and sell.
I'm using a FREE platform for this, but you can do the same in a million ways.
Then she logs in on her broker (without API) and executes the buy and sell.
Is this algo-trading? It's semi-automatic trading, simple and effective.
