Follow these steps to set up and send a trading signal using the **algomojo-webhook-signal** library:

**Step 1: Check Python Installation**

1. Open the **Command Prompt (CMD)**.
2. Type the following command and press **Enter**:

   ```sh
   shCopyEditpython --version
   ```
3. If Python is installed, you will see the version number.

**Step 2: Install Python (If Not Installed)**

1. If Python is not installed, download it from [python.org](https://www.python.org/).
2. Run the installer and **enable the "Add Python to PATH" option** during installation.
3. Once installed, verify by running:

   ```sh
   shCopyEditpython --version
   ```

**Step 3: Install the `algomojo-webhook-signal` Library**

1. Open **Command Prompt (CMD)**.
2. Run the following command to install the required library:

   ```sh
   shCopyEditpip install algomojo-webhook-signal
   ```

**Step 4: Create a Python Script**

1. Open a **text editor** (e.g., Notepad, VS Code, or PyCharm).
2. Copy and paste the following code:

   ```python
   from algomojo_webhook_signal import place_strategy_signal
   from datetime import datetime

   # Replace with your actual Algomojo webhook URL
   webhook_url = "<YOUR_WEBHOOK_URL>"

   # Get the current date and time in YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format
   date = datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")

   # Define the action ('BUY' or 'SELL')
   action = "BUY"  # Change to "SELL" for a sell signal

   # Place the strategy signal
   response = place_strategy_signal(webhook_url, date, action)

   # Print the response
   print(response)
   ```
3. **Replace** `"YOUR_WEBHOOK_URL"` with your **actual strategy webhook URL** from Algomojo.
4. Set the **action** as `"BUY"` or `"SELL"` as required.

**Step 5: Save the Script**

1. Click **File > Save As**.
2. Name the file **send\_signal.py** and save it in a preferred directory.

**Step 6: Run the Script**

1. Open **Command Prompt (CMD)** or **Terminal**.
2. Navigate to the directory where the file is saved using the `cd` command:

   ```sh
   shCopyEditcd path\to\your\directory
   ```
3. Execute the script by running:

   ```sh
   shCopyEditpython send_signal.py
   ```

**Step 7: Verify the Signal Response**

* If the execution is successful, you will see a **response with a signal ID**, confirming that the signal has been sent.
