This script will automatically buy and sell stock for you
 
 
You need the WSE account, and 4S upgrades to run this script
 
 
There are 2 variables at line 14/15 which can be changed.
 
The first will amend the confidence you want to buy at (65% default)
 
The second will allow you to set a reserve pool of money
 
 
Due to the nature of stock market, it will sometimes sit without doing much (ie. if it’s not the right time to buy or sell), just leave the game open and it’ll do it’s thing.
 
 

Code

Terminal > nano stockbot.js
 
Copy paste the below code in and save
 
Terminal > run stockbot.js
