Cryptocurrency Trading Process Optimization

Azati team helped the customer develop a reliable business utility to optimize the cryptocurrency trading process. The customer had previously created a utility to handle crypto trading but faced challenges with performance and scalability. Azati’s task was to optimize the trading scripts, improve the performance, revamp the features, and release a new version of the CLI tool.

Motivation

The customer needed to optimize the performance of their existing cryptocurrency trading utility and revamp its features. The solution required improving the CLI tool, which lacked a visual interface and scalability, and developing new features to enhance the overall trading process.

Main Challenges

Challenge 01
Minimizing External Dependencies

The customer wanted the Ruby-based utility to use as few third-party libraries as possible, requiring Azati to recreate open-source modules internally while maintaining high quality and reliability.

#1
Challenge 02
Performance and Scalability

The existing CLI tool struggled with fast-paced trading operations and could not efficiently handle multiple requests or integrate trading bots. Azati needed to optimize scripts, revamp business logic, and ensure robust Docker deployment for scalability.

#2
Challenge 03
Complex CLI Interaction

Since the tool had no visual interface, managing numerous commands efficiently was challenging. Azati had to implement an advanced filtering system and TCP server support to handle requests remotely and improve usability.

Our Approach

Code Optimization
Azati engineers streamlined the Ruby codebase, minimized dependencies, and refactored trading scripts to boost performance while preserving compatibility with the customer’s existing trading workflows.
Docker Deployment
The entire CLI tool was containerized in Docker, simplifying deployment, scalability, and maintenance. Users can now launch the tool and its dependencies in under a minute.
Enhanced CLI and TCP Server
The CLI was enhanced with a TCP server handling requests remotely. This allows the CLI client to send commands to Docker instances, improving execution efficiency and freeing local resources.
Trading Bots Integration
Trading bots were integrated to automate operations such as purchasing, selling, and exchanging crypto assets. Business logic was optimized for calculations, data transformations, and algorithm handling.
Advanced Filtering System
An advanced command filtering system was implemented to simplify navigation through multiple CLI commands, improving usability for high-volume trading activities.
Project Management Improvement
The team migrated from Trello to GitHub Boards, streamlining task tracking, bug reporting, and feature assignment, which improved overall development efficiency and collaboration.
