First, this is a required newbie post, please don't judge me too harshly.

I'm planning to write a quick app that will consume the cryptsy api and do some simple trades for me.  I'm already consuming the public feed, but haven't added support for trading.  I have a dead simple trading strategy.  Not a lot of trades either.  Just recognizing simple trends and taking advantage of them.

Any gotchas?  What's everyone's experience with Cryptsy's api?  Any pointers would be helpful.  Thanks!
