ah one more thing

Is there anyway that the target buy/sell price is automatically updated? its greyed out for me and i cant see to figure out how to adjust it...

Im worried that the market will readjust high/low and the bot wont make trades for ages without manual intervention ..... anyone know?

The only option right now is ticking "Disable raise/drop safety" in advanced settings. The downside is the bot might decide to sell at a loss. In fact I haven't been able to find fully satisfying settings that make profit with that setting ticked, so be sure to benchmark it. Sometimes it wins a lot but it can also lose a fair amount.

And since we are speaking about it, I would like to suggest Stephan to turn that option into 2, separate ones, one for Buy and one for Sell. That would allow to ignore only one of the 2 safeties, in my case the one I want to ignore is the buy safety, and then the bot would always try to make profit. If the market reversed strongly, the stop-loss function could work in conjunction and prevent losses.

This would prevent having to find 'the perfect' settings with ignored safeties like right now, because honestly, I am quite not succeeding, and I tried a fair amount of combinations Tongue

I agree with this

when the market trends upwards, its painful to see the bot not trading at all - this is because the market will never met the "target" buy/sell ... more options should be opened up and/or a viable way of you allowing to adjust the buy/sell targets automajically...

obviously its the opposite when its a downtrend .. the bot should hold its position, and, if the market has re-established itself at a new point, there's a couple of options here

1) choose to sell up at the higher price, purchase at the lower price, and go from there (could be dangerous on multiple refactors / adjustments of the market - could loose alot of money here)

2) leave the coins purchased at the higher price, and repurchase MORE coins at the lower price, and make profits from there (interesting option, as itll wait until the market gets back to the original amount before making another purchase)

i prefer option 2... if the difference between the old and new market refactor is no more than 5% .... (if its above 5%, then i prefer option 1)

any opinions on this?
