Trying to create a bot for the first time...
Appears to me there are 3 ways you can deliver daily instructions to a bot on a foreign computer (server):
1. SMS text... don't know how to do this. Looking online there are several API but which one's best for an amateur (i.e free/ cheap)?
2. Email... not as accessible nor quick as a text, but perhaps easier for the user if there's a lot of information to provide.
3. Web page... need SLL passwords for this -doesn't sound too complicated.
Anyone here built a bot before? How did you instruct it? I understand some bots will have hard wired instructions, to function long term according to nuanced strategies, but for a simple bot to have a bet placing algorithm on daily picks a means of communication is needed.
