I see some different BItshares trading bots:
StakeMachine: https://steemit.com/bitshares/@xeroc/stakemachine-trading-infrastructure-and-simple-market-making-bot-for-bitshares--opensource-bot-for-bitshares
LiqBot: https://steemit.com/bitshares/@linouxis9/liqbot-0
There's btsbots too, but I wanted more customized strategies. I have no idea how to code. I would like to set it up, but I need more in depth guides or some help. It would be great if something like this could be inbuilt into the DEX. Any suggestions?

creating a custom automated trading strategy without knowing how to code will be hard at least. you need to get yourself a programmer that can work on it. the bitshares-core api is rich enough to create any trading strategy. you basically pull the feed/order book of a market, analyze, make trade decisions client side and send orders to the dex.
i will recommend to make trading bots in python as you already have some open source code to look at in the links you provided but can actually be any lang that can read/write data to a websocket.
i can, and the community will also help in this for sure but you need to get a developer, you need to make him understand your strategy and he will get all the technical help we can provide from our side.

Any JavaScript or Haskell examples? My Python is pretty meh.

Okay thanks. My sister is a programmer, so I'll ask her to help. I might even start learning something myself

After a regrettable year of absence, I'm now bashing my head against StakeMachine again: https://github.com/xeroc/stakemachine/issues/15
LiqBot handles collateral nicely but fails to create any orders.
