im sorry but i must disagree, i dont really care about USD what im trying to get more of is BTC
i foresee the value of USD declining in the future and the value of BTC increasing thus i want to acquire more btc , not dollars
I guess simple trade bot does not implement shorting btc positions. It only supports long positions. The stoploss feature only works for longs, there is no way to stoploss your shorts. The way the benchmark is done is also only for longs in the way it calculates profits. At the start of the benchmark the position is always sold, etc.
