M1 Finance is a US-based stock brokerage that offers fractional sharing and a different type of investing strategy compared to other brokerages. There is no API so I decided to create a Python wrapper for it.

I've implemented a trading script that will calculate the inverse of a particular stock (SPXS) and determine a 'base' amount to invest each day. If the S&P 500 is up for the day, the bot invests less for that particular day. These are just my particular options as the wrapper allows you to write just about anything you want. I'll be updating my portfolio status over the week here during my test run

Very cool, what do you want to do with this?
