how to use bot

settings

.env contains settings for:

• bot username
• bot oauth token
• channel name

Bot username and oauth token should rarely be changed. Channel name will need changed whenever the bot needs directed to a different channel.

optimizations

1. filter assets from Alpaca's /assets endpoint so assetsArr is smaller

• remove non-tradeable
• remove non-fractionable

2. error processing

• if GET fails
• if POST fails
