Hello Mr 5an1ty.

First of all, to wish you all the best for 2015.

My questions are :

I've set up and configured everything, I mean mongodb and the config file.

When I start the bot, I stay stucked on the following

[31-12-2014 12:36:06] - INFO: ------------------------------------------
[31-12-2014 12:36:06] - INFO: Starting BitBot v0.9.4
[31-12-2014 12:36:06] - INFO: Real Trading Enabled = false
[31-12-2014 12:36:06] - INFO: Working Dir = C:\Users\jfvarin\Desktop\Bots\BitBot
[31-12-2014 12:36:06] - INFO: ------------------------------------------
[31-12-2014 12:36:06] - INFO: Downloader started!

It doesn't connect to the database.
I checked the db connection using dbhealth and regardless to the errors due to an empty db, I can see the connection with the db monitor.

Any ideas or hints ?

Otherwise, do you have plans to implement cryptsy or should I try to integrate it by myself ?

Anyway, thanks in advance for your answers.

That's strange, can you PM me your configuration settings? Don't forget to mark out any sensitive information like for example API keys.

why did you choose javascript and runs on Node.JS.?

btw, this is a really nice project, gonna look into it Smiley

Thanks, I'm always glad to see that someone appreciates my work.

Well I was interested in automated trading, but when I saw the available options (paid and free) I found them all lackluster.
When I started working on BitBot I didn't have a lot of coding experience and I saw this as an opportunity to start learning.

As for my choice of Node.JS: I was already familiar with JS and I really like the way it writes. Oh and I love the package manager: NPM
