Crypto Backend Endpoint

[theDe-bugger]

Description

Need a backend endpoint that the site can access to test the crypto arbitrage strategies for a specific currency, two exchanges, and time frame.

Overall:

• Gurik made a function to take in a crypto currency, two exchanges, and a time frame and return a list of indentified opportunities for crypto arbitrage
• You need to discuss this with him and create a REST API that takes the specified parameters and returns the list as required

We need to make GET request!

• exchange 1

• time frame (last month, last week, last day)

• action2 corresponds to what should be done on exchange 2
