i'm missing something here... if everyone is doing the same thing on the same exchange... isn't the first one to execute the order just taking advantage of everyone else?
Trading algorithms followed in masse are usually the moment they stop working.
Except we make up a small percentage of the total traders on Poloniex, and Gunthar has stated that he's aware there is a limit to how many people can use the software simultaneously on a single exchange, at which point he'll stop selling and the only way to acquire a license will be from someone who already owns one
Every user has its own settings and pairs running, also timing of starting bot and how it is calculating trends ect ect
If we were all with the same setting it will be a pump and dump group but it is definitly not
