There should be already be a ground strap from the battery to the frame, and also from head to the front of the frame!
It won't hurt to add another if you wish!

If it doesn't look good, you're already on the right track!
A standard automotive black/negative battery cable will work fine for that!

Use new bolts (stainless if you can) ,nuts, and washers wherever your electrical connections attach to the aluminum frame. A good quality anti-corrosive (at least some grease) will also help to avoid the otherwise inevitable breakdown of the aluminum into corrosive salts from the reaction between dissimilar metals.
A real problem with these aluminum framed carts.
