Step 1: Create a New Strategy

1. Log in to the EdgeKeeper Dashboard.
2. Click the "New Strategy" button.
3. Name your strategy "My First Bot" and click Create.

Step 2: Add Data Source

Every strategy needs market data.

1. Open the Node Library (left sidebar).
2. Drag a Candle Data node onto the canvas.

Step 3: Add Indicators

We need two SMA indicators.

1. Drag two SMA nodes from the Indicators category.
2. Connect the Close output of the Candle Data node to the Source input of both SMA nodes.
3. Set the Period of the first SMA node to 10 (Fast).
4. Set the Period of the second SMA node to 20 (Slow).

Step 4: Define Logic

Now we determine when to buy or sell.

1. Drag a Cross Over node from the Logic category.
2. Connect the Fast SMA output to input A.
3. Connect the Slow SMA output to input B.
4. This node will output True when the Fast SMA crosses above the Slow SMA.

Step 5: Execute Orders

1. Drag a Market Buy node from the Execution category.
2. Connect the output of the Cross Over node to the Trigger input of the Market Buy node.
