Centrolio
A private iOS crypto trading bot built using Unreal Engine, Kraken's REST API, and proprietary risk-based trading algorithms

What is Centrolio?
Seeing as I've been involved in the cryptocurrency decentralized finance landscape for many years now, I figured that I would combine my knowledge of Unreal Engine iOS development, long-held crypto trading strategies, and other private trading algorithms to create a bot that would automate what I had already been doing manually for years... all in the palm of your hand using Kraken's REST API.
My roles
Throughout the brief development of Centrolio, I was responsible for:
Designing the entire UI from scratch in Sketch with iPhone X, 11, & 12 as the only target devices seeing as this is only going to be a privately used application
Integrating all assets from Sketch into Unreal Engine
Working intimately with a talented Unreal Engine C++ developer to implement a Kraken API plugin for Unreal Engine 4.26+
Develop entire front-end using Unreal Engine UMG widgets and blueprint systems, following atomic design principles
Implement functions from Kraken API plugin to create cohesive trading strategies that could be toggled or tweaked via the settings as well as display Kraken account information easily to user
Convert private trading algorithms into blueprint scripts that would assist in determine when to buy and sell specific cryptocurrencies; again also relying on functions implemented from the Kraken API pluginIterate on and QA iOS builds for TestFlight
