How to Automate Stock Trading with Python and Alpaca API - Part 1

Описание: In this video I walk you through connecting Python to a real
brokerage API, pulling live stock data, and placing your first
automated trade. All with zero real money at risk using
Alpaca's free paper trading account.

This is Episode 1 of a full series where we build a complete
AI-powered trading bot from the ground up. By the end of the
series we'll have machine learning models deciding what to buy,
a risk management system, and a daily stock scanner running
automatically.

What we cover today:
→ Setting up Alpaca paper trading (free)
→ Connecting to the API with Python
→ Pulling live stock data with yfinance
→ Placing your first automated trade

Everything built in this episode is ~30 lines of Python.
No experience with trading or finance needed — just basic Python.
