Can the President use executive orders to establish the strategic reserve? or does it need to go through the legislative process?
the president cannot unilaterally issue a policy on the national reserve-- the bill would need to go through legislative debate and that would involve the fed, and other relevant agencies. that's why trump's plan to create a national reserve with bitcoin is not a near-term possibility because it would require further debate by lawmakers and many other parties, until it is approved by a majority of lawmakers and then the bill could be implemented.
