Thanks Moppidoo, very relevant feedback and thanks for the further clarifications.
Hi Patrick, thanks for the update!
Regarding the new rule: New rule trigger for miner revenue and profit levels
Its quite a simple rule to setup and I setup a rule for profit (and later revenue) where the miner stops mining when the profit is less 5 South African Rand (then I later put in 500 South African Rand to test this), the time was set to 5 seconds to stop the miner. Unfortunately the rule wouldnt trigger on any of my miners but did work when I manually ran the rule.
If the above rule worked would it also start the miner automatically when the miner is above the profit or revenue threshold specified or do I need to setup an additional rule to start the miner after X amount of profit or revenue?
@Smartieee, I believe the rule only looks at the current miner's profit/revenue per day in action! rather than the overall profile and periodic calculated overall profit rank, thus right at this moment, it probably doesn't do the auto starting since once your miner stopped, it probably will not be monitored by the rule when idle. I'm pretty sure Patrike can gradually expand this function further in future releases upon how useful ppl find the function to be for them and giving feedback and ideas. Right now for starters, it is already showing signs of great improvement with the first release of the feature.
It's correct that the rule currently can look at:
- Miner Revenue
- Miner Profit
The plan is to improve this rule to also look at:
- Profit Profile Revenue
- Profit Profile Profit
For a Managed Profit Miner, the rule may not trigger within the first minute the miner is running, to ensure that it's really up and running before any action is taken. The rule requires the miner to be running at the moment. Once I've implemented support for the rule to look at the Profit Profiles as well, it will be possible to take action on a miner that isn't running - for example to start it once the profit reach a specific level.
Already today it should be possible to use the Miner Profit rule to give notification warnings if a miner is claiming to generate a profit that is very high for example - which could be an indication that a pool is reporting incorrect profit values. (There will also be a built-in feature in Awesome Miner to detect this in the future).
