Start simple: use a paper-trading account, choose a rule-based strategy (SMA crossover or DCA), backtest thoroughly, and enforce position-sizing and stop-loss limits. Automate only after stable backtest results and small live tests. For beginners, use a hosted bot to avoid infra headaches and keep clear logs. Use ChatGPT to generate starter backtest scripts and explain signals.
