Just wanted to thank everyone that did try the application, we really appreciate it. To everyone else, we understand being hesitant to download an application, so we uploaded some youtube videos of the application in action.

Introduction to Crabby: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6i2ABC6rzas

Creating your first bot on Crabby: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Blcke_JGrS4
Running your first backtest on Crabby: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQ_d6WAEnQc

They are all pretty short (most ~1 minute, all under 3 minutes). The aim was to make them concise, but helpful.

Do you have a comparison to other Polo bots? They're a dime a dozen (even though yours is free I know)

I don't currently have a comparison off hand, but you can look at our website to see the features we currently support.

Here is a short breakdown:
  • Create unlimmited customizable bots.
  • Create configurable strategies based on some of the most widely used indicators in trading.
  • Analyze historic market data and run backtests.
  • View trade history and performance over time.

My team will be looking into ways we can further differentiate ourselves from other trading bots that are currently on the market as we continue developing. However, I would say that this version is an alpha release, not a full release. It has similar features to many of the other bots, but we are trying to focus on ease of use. We want to attract people who may not have gotten into trading bots because of the high cost. As our product advances, we are planning more unique features which will help differentiate ourselves from other applications. This is one of the reasons we are trying to communicate with the community. We would like know what the traders here want to see in the application. We don't want to develop in a black box and hope that people like what we are doing. Saying something is a dime a dozen is not sufficient reason not to do it. Our team can provide a high quality free application, so now we are working on determining what will make it better than everything else that is out in the market today. Do you have experience using other bot applications? If so, let me know how you think ours compares and what we could do to make it better.
